Nobel Peace Prize Nominee Filmed Hamas Beating Jewish Hostages and Covered It Up
Front Page Magazine ^ | 09/21/2026 | Daniel Greenfield

Everything coming out of Gaza is Hamas propaganda. The turning point in the Oct 7 war came when the media chose to uncritically publish all of it and politicians and much of the public chose to believe it. There is no such thing as ‘journalism’ in Gaza. All there is organized manipulation.

And the manipulators have been greeted with cheers and honors for pushing this propaganda.

Gazan photographer and journalist Motaz Azaiza said he filmed Israeli hostages being beaten by a Gazan mob on October 7, 2023, but chose not to publish the footage because he feared it could put the Palestinians involved at risk.

“I saw the vehicle of the Al-Qassam Brigades, and there were Israeli captives there,” Azaiza recalled. “People got out, watched, beat them, hit them, and I followed them and filmed. But I did not publish those videos. Why? Because I did not want to ruin the lives of the people who were filmed.

A Nobel Peace Prize nominee and one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people in the world, Azaiza has become one of the most recognizable figures associated with the current war.

The photographer said he experienced Hamas’s suppression apparatus firsthand. He described a WhatsApp group called “Smart,” which he said is managed by a Hamas media official at the Rafah crossing and used to organize online campaigns against journalists who challenge the group’s narrative.

The media propaganda was being coordinated by Hamas.

It’s not as if Azaiza was hiding his views all that much. Politicians and the media just covered it up.

“On Oct. 7, Motaz Azaiza posted, then deleted, a video of Hamas terrorists inside Israel with a caption celebrating their infiltration: ‘The Gazans entered the settlements!!!!!!!! With jeeps we see in the streets of Gaza,’

On April 6, Melissa Fleming, under-secretary-general for global communications at the United Nations, posted that she was “so moved” to meet with Azaiza.

All of this is a choice. A choice to lie. A choice to ignore the truth. And a choice to support Islamic terrorism while pretending not to.

It would be an outrage if not for the fact that the Nobel Peace Prize has become a joke in recent years anyway. A bunch of self-aggrandizing leftists engaging in a back-patting circle and showering each other with accolades and bragging about who out-commies the other.

Who needs it?

It’s been a joke ever since Yassir Arafag got one.

Yup.

And giving Barak Obama the Noble Peace Prize as a door prize for winning the presidency on a pretext that the Noble was awarded to Obama preemptively “for all good he was going to while in office “ totally destroyed the credibility of the Noble Peace Prize.

Obama and Hillary created, armed , equipped and trained ISIS I and enabled them to run wild in Syria and Iraq, bombed Libya into the ground , overthrew the Mubarak government in Egypt and installed the Muslim Brotherhood and Barak Obama authorized a multitude of drone strikes and a few White House staffers disclosed that a gleeful Obama lived to watch the snuff film ISR feeds of his executions from the White House House situation room

The Hamas wing is very pro-Hitler on the Jewish issue.

Screams Before Silence’: New doc highlights Hamas’s Oct. 7 sexual violence

“But the tragic truth, as this documentary makes crystal clear, is that the major reason few of the victims have come forward is that the vast majority were murdered following, and sometimes during, their assaults.”

Well he obviously didn’t mean the ‘captives’ because Hamas went on to murder just about all of them. He was protecting Hamas people after the Oct. 7th Attack, because that attack was somehow justifiable in his mind. That’s why guys like this win the Nobel Prize in the modern world, because they don’t do the right thing, or non-biased thing, they do what the people that make you rich and famous want.

I don't think it's just a wing anymore, it's their central policy with a handful of dissenters.

Getting an award, like serving in the military, does not mean you are a good person.

While we are at it let’s just outlaw islam as a death cult.

Do the reading open your eyes and your mind to the truth.

100’s of Millions Dead: Victims of 1400 years of Islam; the “Religion” of Death and Conquest

This follows my previous post about 100’s of Thousands Dead in Africa in just 10 years.

Other sites of note.

Bare Naked islam

The Religion Of Peace.
https://thereligionofpeace.com/

DID YOU KNOW???

Of the approximately 65,000 terrorist attacks that have been waged around the world in the past 25 years, 98% of them were carried out by Muslims. The other 4 major religions – Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, & Judaism – altogether were behind just 2% of them.

The religion of “peace” of the grave.

Google knife attacks, (vehicle, truck, car attacks), google bombings, google rape gangs, google hostages, google mass homicides, google fire bombing and the overwhelming majority will have a moslem, or a palestinian involved as the perpetrator. We all know that islam is a death cult and criminal mafia like organization. ...do the searches and then you decide what a moslem is.
