He added that the Israelis seek to increase their land and decrease the number of Arabs and that they consider Palestinian babies "demographic bombs," therefore they encourage Palestinian women to limit the number of children they have. In February 2021, Samidoun was designated a terrorist organization by Israeli authorities.

"We will fight until the liberation of Palestine and the Palestinian people, no matter how long this fight is going to take."
