Hamas Invested all Its resources in a hopeless war against Israel and brought destruction upon gaza 6 February 2024 By: MEMRI Palestinian Writer: Hamas Invested All Its Resources In A Hopeless War Against Israel And Brought Destruction Upon Gaza; The International Community And Arab World Must Act To Eliminate The Palestinian Organizations And Their Activity. In two recent articles on the Saudi website Elaph, Palestinian writer Majdi Abd Al-Wahhab directs harsh criticism at Hamas, stating that its October 7 attack against Israel brought nothing but disaster upon the Palestinians people. In one article, from January 9, 2024, Abd Al-Wahhab expresses hope that Allah will curse Hamas for the devastation it has brought upon Gaza, and wonders why it spent vast sums on digging tunnels and launching a hopeless war against Israel instead of investing them in developing the Gaza Strip and its people. He assesses that the destruction of Gaza “will be followed by [people] fleeing, migrating and living in misery and suffering, both in the Strip and outside it, and whoever does not become a refugee [in his homeland], will migrate.” In an article from December 26, 2023 Abd Al-Wahhab calls Hamas’ October 7 attack a “kamikaze” operation, like those of the Japanese pilots in World War II, which, he says, did nothing to help Japan’s war effort. He urged Hamas to learn from the experience of the Japanese and renounce its pointless military action. In addition, he called on the international community and the Arab world to act to eliminate all the Palestinian organizations and stop their military and civilian activity, “so that the Palestinians will be rid of them and their harm and can start blazing a new, straight path for themselves, far from destruction, killing and devastation." The following are translated excerpts from the two articles. May Allah Curse Hamas For The Destruction It Has Brought Upon Gaza In his January 9, 2024 article, Majdi Abd Al-Wahhab wrote: "Anyone who sees the destruction in Gaza, in terms of human lives, buildings, and on the economic, financial and psychological levels, cannot but pray to Allah and ask him to curse all those who caused this destruction. How can we not curse the people who caused this, given this complete devastation? How can we not curse Hamas and its leaders after they have destroyed every element of dignified existence in the Gaza Strip?! "When Hamas carried out its attack [on October 7] and invaded the [Israeli] localities on the Gaza border, did it expect Israel to refrain from retaliating in force and from delivering blow after blow to the Gaza Strip, given its desire for revenge and given the international backing it receives, and in the absence of any power that can force it to stop its war against Gaza? Wouldn't it have been appropriate for Hamas, which has already proved its [considerable] planning abilities, to invest these abilities and energies in building up the Gaza Strip and completing the growth that had been achieved there – [growth] that was the envy of many Arabs and Muslims living in Yemen, Somalia or other countries, [whereas today] the Gazans wish to achieve the level of those [countries] and see them as a safe haven?! <- Previous Read full article Next -> More Insights 7 Ways Hamas Exploits Palestinian Civilians in Gaza Antisemitism defined: Why opposing the Jewish people's right to self-determination is antisemitic What You Need to Know About Israel’s Humanitarian Aid To Gaza Fatah responds to Hamas criticism of new formation of PA government ‘without consulting Hamas’ Surprise jump in Gazan support for 2-state solution, while still in favor of Oct 7 attack Hamas' Most Horrific Weapon of War: 5 Takeaways from UN Report on Sexual Violence Against Israelis Latest Video Clips The History of Israel This Muslim Israeli Woman Is the Future of the Middle East Natasha Hausdorff responds to the content of the House of Commons Gaza Debate.

Video Transcription: as I just said it's now 2 months since the Unspeakable horrors of the Hamas terrorist attack were Unleashed on vulnerable communities in southern Israel I'll show you in a moment the gut churning interpretations some people are promoting of those October the 7th atrocities for now the fighting and Trauma continues in Gaza as Israel tries to eliminate Hamas terrorists the bombings in Gaza are intense and undoubtedly and tragically there will be civilian casualties but the number of Innocents killed is unknown and any numbers coming out of Gaza are controlled by Hamas and simply cannot be trusted they form part of the terror groups propaganda war and too many in the media and elsewhere are happy to Parrot their numbers and Echo their claims this is how it always plays out in the Middle East Terror groups subject Israel to random attacks attacks and violence then when Israel responds the terror propagandists turn the world against Israel always claiming the response is disproportionate always inflating civilian casualties always deliberately placing civilians In Harm's Way and always getting the UN and the media to amplify their propaganda claims that make Israel the villain islamist extremist groups only exist to eradicate Israel and the Jewish people that's in the Hamas Charter Hamas is not interested in a two-state solution they cannot abide coexistence yet they manag to Marshall Public support particularly from the political left as if they represent Palestinian aspirations for Statehood Hamas are not an organization for Palestinian aspiration they are a bloodthirsty islamist terror group and it's hard to Fathom how the world now pretends ends that Hamas is somehow a legitimate vehicle for pal Palestinian Ambitions when you consider how the current War started it seems that many of the protesters or useful idiots in the west either don't know the facts or simply ignore them Gaza was not occupied by Israel on October the 7th Israel ended its occupation of Gaza 15 years ago forcibly removing all the Jewish amilies who were living in Gaza and didn't want to leave for years instead of embracing their freedom building their economy and forging their future the people of Gaza elected Hamas to lead them and Hamas set about firing deadly Rockets into Israel killing injuring and terrorizing random civilians and Hamas has built tunnels it's commandeered Aid allocations accumulated weapons and it's crushed any descent on the threat of death and on October the 7th this year on a peaceful morning unprovoked Hamas terrorists left Gaza and went into Israel and what they did there was not an act of Liberation it was not an act of military resistance against an occupier it was not an attempt to weaken military installations or surveillance it was a blood curdling terrorist attack on men women and children Innocents who were tortured raped and murdered and while the media is full of untested claims about civilian deaths in Gaza claims we know are either false or grossly exaggerated remember the lies about the hospital well while the media runs all this they do not share the facts the known facts the videotaped corroborated and sickening facts of October the 7th that's partly because because the facts are too traumatic too graphic to show but even too depraved to talk about I've seen much of it on video and I've seen eyewitness accounts that are just too disturbing to broadcast and that I can never unremember so instead have a look at a journalist account of what he saw on video and a warning even this is distressing children are being hunted down and killed um there are old people who are hunted down and killed I mean like running through a village trying to find them and then killing them and then continuing to shoot them after their death what became of some of the people we didn't see die uh we saw children who were covered in blood who were blinded uh who had lost their parents and uh you know this is this is this is really horrible stuff just terrific and that's the stuff we can show you that's not too bad not too disturbing and the Hamas atroities were especially disgusting against women there was rape and sexual violence too horrific to describe on air and none other than Hillary Clinton has called out those who ignore it many women and girls were attacked brutally by Hamas on October 7th and they have testified to the gender-based violence that they both experienced and witnessed it is outrageous that some who claim to stand for justice are closing their eyes and their hearts to the victims of Hamas and don't forget never forget the hostages we've seen the video footage some of it shot by the terrorists themselves as they took young women at gunpoint and even mothers and their babies some have been traded back to Israel in exchange for the release of Palestinian criminals others have been killed another 138 still await their fate this is not the act of an oppressed people seeking Freedom this is not a reaction to being occupied yet at New York's Columbia University one planned student event referred to octo October the 7th as a counter offensive a counter offensive what a disgusting insult to the babies young women mothers and fathers slaughtered for nothing other than being Jewish that event has been cancelled or at least renamed but the sentiment seems widespread especially in universities it's sickening listen to these students at the same University glorifying this terrorism as some kind of revolutionary act on October 7th the Palestinian Liberation Fighters demonstrated their refusal to be dominated they show the world that the Palestinian people will fight for Freedom instead of quietly adapting to subjugation they showed us that through creativity determination and combined strength the mes can accomplish great feats a fact we have seen in every heroic struggle for Liberation from Vietnam to Afghanistan D to struggle D to win for these sios these fools this is their Vietnam and listen to this student from Boston a young woman with a Jewish mother and a Muslim father no less and here the repulsive attitudes attitudes that she's encountered for my part I was forced to leave my study group for my doctoral exams halfway through the semester because my group members told me that the people at the Nova Music Festival deserved to die because they were partying on Stolen land what is happening in Liberal democracies when this sort of anti-Semitism this sort of irrational hatred is rushing so easily to the surface the animalistic atrocity of October the 7th should not be used by anyone including activists in the west to push the political aim of Palestinian statehood this was a deliberate attempt to inspire islamist extremism and Jew hatred everywhere and to ensure that Bloodshed and chaos continues in the Middle East the loudest calls now should be for Hamas to release all hostages immediately until Hamas hands back every hostage and stops firing rockets and bullets at Israel it cannot rationally portray Israel as the aggressor

Choose your heroes Download YouTube 2023-10-21 (#022) < Previous Next > Oded Rahav, founder of Dead Sea Guardians has worked for years on bringing people together in the Middle East via sports and environmental issues. He quotes New York City mayor Eric Adams as saying "We are not alright"and agrees with him This is the tale of one hero, Ofir Liebstein who was head of the Shaar Hanegev Regional Council and worked endlessly to create hope in the region. Recently, he embarked on a project called the Arazim Industrial Zone with the aim of providing 10,000 jobs for Palestinians from Gaza. He also began a project to provide renewable energy to the Gaza Strip, allocating lands from his own Council to that purpose. He pushed forward a project to provide fresh water to Gaza, placing pipes within the Gaza Strip. And the Hamas? They uprooted the pipes and used them to make rockets. Paradoxically, it's people like Ofir who take care of the Palestinians. On October 7th, Ofir fought bravely to protect his family, neighbors and community. He was killed by Hamas. They also killed his mother in law and her nephew. His son Nitzan, aged 19, was shot and is missing. Hamas does not care about the wellbeing and prosperity of the Palestinians. It's Israelis, heroes like Ofir who work day and night to create hope, while Hamas has dragged the entire region into hell. Video Transcription: Coming soon

And the BBC does it again! Download YouTube 2023-11-15 (#126) < Previous Next > In this war, words kill. These apologies, however, rarely heal something. We demand responsibility. Now. Video Transcription: And now an apology from the BBC. A BBC News as it covered initial reports that Israeli forces has entered Gaza's main hospital. We said that medical teams and Arab speakers were being targeted. At this moment, we are hearing from Reuters that is reporting that Israel, it says its forces are carrying out an operation against Hamas in Gaza's al Shifa hospital, and they are targeting people, including medical teams, as well as Arab speakers. This was incorrect and misquoted a Reuters report. We should have said IDF forces included medical teams and Arabic speakers for this operation. So we apologize for this error, which fell below.

Arguments regarding the Gaza war - Colonel Richard Kemp, and Mustafa Barghouti Download YouTube 2024-01-03 (257) < Previous Next > The ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict has once again ignited a heated debate between two prominent figures, former British Army Colonel Richard Kemp, and Mustafa Barghouti who is the Palestinian National Initiative Leader. The fiery debate on Piers Morgan Uncensored was guest hosted by Douglas Murray, with all three expressing their contrasting views on the recent killing of the deputy head of Hamas in Beirut. Their clash highlighted the complex nature of the conflict, with arguments revolving around the right to defend oneself, civilian casualties, and accusations of white supremacy. Mustafa Barghouti at one point accused Colonel Richard Kemp of putting words in his mouth. Video Transcription: from Tel Aviv the former British army officer and now Trustee of the UK Friends of the association for the well-being of Israeli soldiers Colonel Richard Kemp and from Ramala Palestinian national initiative leader Mustafa Bargouti thank you both for joining me let me start with you if I may Mr barouti uh we've just had this news in we've all just heard it of the Deputy head of hamaz being killed in Beirut obviously this is the leader of the group that killed Palestinians in the K in Gaza in 2006-7 and of course one of the people who planned the October the 7th Massacre what's your response to his killing tonight well if you allow me and I hope you will accept that from me I think your presentation is absolutely one-sided totally biased to the Israeli side you speak about the right of Israel to defend itself but you don't mention the right of the Palestinian people to defend themselves you failed to mention that Israel is the aggressor which started this terrible occupation since 56 years and Palestinians as people under occupation according to international law have the right to defend themselves and to resist occupation you you failed to mention that no less than 29,000 civilian Palestinians have been killed by Israeli BB I mentioned that I mentioned that including in no no you mentioned as if they were killed on their own not by Israeli bombardment what should be clear here is that 29,000 Palestinians if we include those under the rebel have been killed by Israeli terrible air strikes and artillery bombardment including no less than 12,000 children I've said so many times on so many programs I'm against the killing of any civilian whether Palestinian or Israel but if you speak about the killing of 30 Israeli children you should also speak about the 12,000 Palestinian children who were killed well Mr May uh I did mention the killing of children I did say that that is appalling damage in the war but let me let me finish the question before you try to answer a question I haven't yet asked you said that the Palestinian people allowed to uh resist as you call it what what does that look like in your view according to international law people who are under occupation have the right to resist in all forms including military forms as long as they respect international law and international humanitarian law okay so what does it look like does it Israel Israel wants not only to look I've been struggling with nonviolent resistance all my life I was injured nine times by the Israeli Army although I never used any weapon I was shot I was shot twice but but you're not telling but you're telling me sir wait a minute you're not telling me what legitimate resistance is while legitimate resistance is all forms of resistance that respect International humanitarian law which means not attacking civilians not attacking children it's very clear that's what international law says I not creating that okay but even when I was in my white coat wait a minute when I was in my white coat in treating an injured person an Israeli sniper shot me twice the same same mentality of these snipers killed Shireen Abu your colleague the journalist and nobody no Israeli was indicted 33 of my Pro my colleagues doctors nurses health professionals have been killed by Israeli air strikes in Gaza 104 ambulances were destroyed all our health centers were destroyed this is not acceptable okay thank you mrti Mr baruti we have another guest so I'd like to go over to Tel Aviv to Colonel Richard Kemp what do you make of what you've just heard well I think um Mr barouti talks about uh legitimate resistance adhering to the laws of War uh well first of all resistance to war what the the Israelis withdrew from Gaza in 2005 uh and set effectively set up a two State solution let let the Palestinian Authority which was then taken over by Hamas run their own territory so what are they actually resisting what's this resistance about and when it comes to the laws of war the people the Hamas butchers that Mr barouti has been quoted as referring to as our brave Fighters they went into Israeli territory on the 7th of October they raped burnt alive butchered cut off their heads kidnapped abused civilians and soldiers civilians though which is you know against obviously it's against any law of War it was against the laws of war to kill anyone inside another country but in in that way but but to do to to to butcher civilians like that what where's the laws of war there and secondly ever since that day and of course many many times before his Brave Hamas Fighters as he calls them have been firing rockets indiscriminately at civilian populations inside Israel and they're still doing so they won't be doing so much longer because they're about to be throttled by the IDF and not only that but they've also been firing them from within the civilian population that is against the laws of armed conflict and preventing civilians from leaving the combat areas when the igf are trying to warn them about attacks again against the laws of arm conflict they've also fired many of their Rockets into the Gaza civilian population we just have to look at the Al Ali Hospital attack that was attributed to the IDF but turned out to be an Islamic Jihad and other Brave Islamic Jihad Fighters firing their own Rockets into their own civilian population let's not forget what Hamas is all about here the the reason Hamas launched this attack there are strategic reasons of course but the the overriding reason they launched this attack on the 7th of October and the reason they launched all of their attacks is to force Israel to defend itself from these attacks which any country and every country would do and has the right and the obligation to do and in in carrying out its reaction to these attacks Israel unfortunately has no choice but to to kill innocent civilians in the process despite the efforts they take which are enormous to avoid doing that but that's what Hamas wants Hamas they don't they don't just want civilians to protect their terrorists they want Israel to kill civilians so that Israel is then condemned delegitimized vilified isolated around the world and it happen works every time in the United Nations the universities uh in in some governments human rights groups always condemn Israel that's what Hamas want and that encourages Hamas to do it again and again and again and by Mr barouti who who claims to support peaceful resistance by Mr barouti justifying what they do he also has blood on his hands from encouraging get a moment Mr V you're going to get a moment to respond to that I I just want to ask you first let's just clear that this up before you do respond to Colonel Kemp did you call him as our brave Fighters or not I never said that no I don't know where you got that from no it's not true you are putting words in my mouth but let me let me respond to what the colonal said the colonialist said is reflecting clearly a very clear white supremacy approach it is okay Supremacy why don't you say why don't you say why don't you say clearly that you are supporting the killing of Palestinian children why don't you say clearly that you are supporting the killing of Palestinian civilians why don't you say that you are supporting Israeli occupation of Palestinian land and supporting three terrible war crimes even the American public is against that three war crimes the war crime of genocide which the international court of justice is looking into now the war crime of collective punishment and the war crime of ethnic cleansing 90 wait a minute 90% of the Palestinian people were eved from their homes what would you have said if Palestinians eved Israelis from their homes that be acceptable they have done why don't you use the same standard I'm going to go back I'm going to go back to colel k a moment but why why is why is this white supremacy where did that come from the Israeli public are not all white because I don't I think you don't see us white enough and you are against anybody who's not white and that's why you justify terrible atrocities that Israel is committing and you are justifying not only the fact that Israel is occupying us but the fact that Israel conducted the worst kind of ethnic cleansing in 1948 forcing 70% of the Palestinian people out I'm going to go back to col facts I'll just go back to Colonel Kemp quickly Colonel Kemp you you said that he that Mr vgy said our brave Fighters were hamz he says he didn't say that um who's right well I certainly read him quote he may not have said it but I read him being quoted as saying I think it was Middle East eye or something like that but he can certainly if he'd like to Google it to see what he actually said he can find that on the internet and what do you make of this claim and what do you make of this claim Colonel Kemp that everyone who justifies always in any way on the side of his during this war is a is a white supremacist because Israel doesn't look like a very allwhite country to me but I don't know no I mean you know there's there are all blends of um races in Israel and one thing we should remember as well is that there is a significant Muslim Arab population in Israel and one thing that I've observed in recent weeks ised a skyring a skyrocketing of support for Israel among the Israeli Arab Muslim population the the poll polls number of polls have shown that a huge grow growth of support for Israel a greater association with the state of Israel since the 7th of October and that is partly due to the fact that Hamas his his Brave fighters from Hamas that that he clearly supports came in and um and butchered not just uh Israelis but Israeli Jews but they also came and and killed a number of Arabs and and and people from many different ethnicities so what he's talking I think it's a great throwaway line white supremacy it obviously gets you know it's one of these intersectional terms you know me too and all this sort of stuff it's it's he obviously thinks that's going to Garner support for him for people who uh you know do object rightly object to the idea of white supremacy but I don't think that comes into this argument one little bit Mr margi finally we've already got a few seconds but you said we need to go back to 1947 and 1948 what do you say to the people who say you can go back thousands of years and you never never have an end to this argument well look Palestinians were displaced from their country including cities like jafa where my father lived and haa and AKA 75 years ago if Israel is after 3,000 years have the right to go back and demand to be in Palestine then why not Palestinians who have been evicted 75 years ago why should we forget about our own country and let's go back to the United Nations resolution that established the state of Israel it said that there should be two states Israel and Palestine Israel was created and Palestine was occupied that is the reality as we all know Mr Mari there's one thing we can be sure about about that that's highly disputed history as it all is there wasn't a Palestinian State then there could have been it's the United Nation resolution it's a it's a very sad thing there wasn't a Palestinian State created then and that the Palestinians it will be it will be I assure you a lot of people hope it will be but uh if there certainly won't be if people are praising Hamas and uh the longer they're around the less likely it is there will ever be a Palestinian State as far as I can see but thank you very much Colonel Richard Kemp in Tel Aviv and thank you uh to masafa bouti our intersectionalist tonight in rala
