We all remember the holdout from the Los Angeles Times who refused to accept the notion that Hamas had beheaded babies during its attack on innocent civilians in Israel — he apparently would settle for nothing less than video of the beheadings to believe it was anything but Israeli propaganda.

The IDF has held a couple of screenings for journalists of video taken by Hamas terrorists on October 7. Israeli actor Gal Gadot arranged for a screening in Los Angeles, which was crashed by Hamas sympathizers … the same ones tearing down posters of kidnapped children.

Marc Rod of Jewish Insider reports that House members got a screening Tuesday, and many left crying.

Dozens of House members are currently watching footage from the Hamas attack on Israel. One member just came out in tears less than 5 minutes after going into the room.

“I’m feeling like I felt when I went to Birkenau,” Rep. Darrell Issa told me, shaking his head in disbelief. “It’s just war crimes. Unbelievable.”

— Marc Rod (@marcrod97) November 14, 2023

The screening just wrapped up and the overall reaction from members is stunned silence. Many seem at a loss for words. Numerous members crying. Have been told by multiple people that it’s hard to believe things like this are happening in 2023.

I didn't get a count but it looked from what I could see through the door like the caucus room was mostly full. So at least 100+. Speaker Johnson was there for a few minutes. Some of the folks who are supporting a ceasefire, like Reps. AOC and Casar, also attended.

Sara Jacobs: “It’s obviously horrific and gruesome and it’s hard to believe that in the year 2023 things like this are still happening, but unfortunately they are.”

— Marc Rod (@marcrod97) November 14, 2023

Mike Lawler: “How anyone could call for a ceasefire after watching that — they’re not understanding what is actually happening.”

— Marc Rod (@marcrod97) November 14, 2023

Haley Stevens: “I’m absolutely gutted. And I think seeing the video footage of people celebrating the killing of Jews shows what we’re up against. And the fact that anybody would encourage or condone what Hamas did that day. It’s outrageous..."

— Marc Rod (@marcrod97) November 14, 2023

Stevens cont'd: "...It’s unbelievable seeing footage like that in the year 2023, in places we’ve all been.”

— Marc Rod (@marcrod97) November 14, 2023

Hamas doesn't live in 2023.

Byron Donalds: “I feel the same way I felt watching what occurred on social media. Israel must do everything it needs do to obliterate Hamas. Period.”

— Marc Rod (@marcrod97) November 14, 2023

Ted Lieu: “Never again.”

— Marc Rod (@marcrod97) November 14, 2023

My colleague has seen the same/similar video and wrote about what she saw. Senate lawmakers will have the opportunity to watch this footage on Thursday. https://t.co/daGSBlwxZs

— Marc Rod (@marcrod97) November 14, 2023

So the Senate gets a screening on Thursday. This is video taken by the terrorists themselves that they uploaded to social media. What we saw was horrific … what we haven't seen is unfathomable.

Good. They need to see it

— Perpetual Anxiety 🇺🇸 (@Mobius22_) November 14, 2023

That should be shown on the house floor with all members present and the Senate floor with all senators present and entered into the record for all the world to see. It is a massive mistake not doing this.

They need to play it at college campuses. They need to release it to the public. Transparency to combat Hamas’s lies.

— Lori Mills (@LoriMills4CA42) November 14, 2023

Just another reminder that Hamas started this. They allegedly planned it for years.

Emotions run high, but watching doesn't change facts. Hamas attacks are brutal. The tears won't erase the truth about their actions.

— @garsnov (@garsnov) November 14, 2023

Maybe this will put an end to the political agenda of Israel bad, Palestine good.

— Kirby Marshall (@TheLongshipAge) November 14, 2023

Not only these things still happen in 2023 - they are celebrated by huge portions of the global population, including in the US.

— 💙 Ofer Lando 💙 (@Ofernicus) November 14, 2023

There are still people in the replies — who haven't seen the footage — who insist it's all fake Israeli propaganda. It's stunning how many people can't accept that Hamas slaughtered more than a thousand innocent civilians, and actually go to great lengths to argue that Hamas wouldn't actually do all of these things. They're animals with an insane hatred of Jews instilled in them from birth … of course they'd do these things, and people are in the streets by the hundreds of thousands celebrating it.

I created FR keyword HamasAtrocities for Hamas' October 7 horrific attack on Israel. FYI.

Islam out. It cannot be reformed. Muslim can and should repent. It can be done.

Thanks for that.

Is there video or just in house?

The more stunning thing is that any member of Congress would be shocked by this. Anyone who understands how the world actually works, and who is able to discern good from evil, was not surprised at all to see the utter depravity of Hamas’s actions. It’s frustrating and scary how naive and uninformed the majority of our “legislators” are about the weighty matters they’re expected to tackle. It’s no wonder they’re so often way behind the curve on serious issues, even to the point of ridiculing and dismissing those who try to bring their attention to them.

Now someone needs to hold a similar shock therapy session for them on the national debt and the total economic catastrophe that is staring us in the face if these clowns don’t immediately start taking it seriously.

After that, educate them on the reality of widespread election fraud and slap around those who keep dismissing the truth tellers as “election deniers.” When your whole worldview is wrong, every day is full of surprises.

Within the last three months, Israeli Gal Gadot was suddenly cancelled from her well played and well liked movie role as Wonder Woman.

She is not a great actress, but she connected very well with the Wonder Woman character.

At the time, I wondered if she was cancelled for age (almost 40) or for her limited acting skills.

Today, I wonder if she was cancelled because of her religion and nationality.

Just in house. I’ve heard Israeli government wants to protect Israel hostages and families of victims from seeing photos of Hamas atrocities splashed all over media and internet.

As I have said on other threads. When our troops in WW2 came across the camps, Ike ordered journalist and photographer to report and record what they saw. The World would not believe otherwise. Only difference is in this case, Hamas recorded the crimes themselves.

The Squad should have been made to watch from front row seats.

The Squad should have been made to watch from front row seats.

They would have been munching on popcorn, and high-fiving each other.

I get that. Usually I don’t like war porn. But when everyone is commenting I get curious.
