In the video a large unit of terrorists are shown with all the equipment of a modern army, from combat vests to advanced assault rifles. Several are seen bearing a flag reading "the army of Al-Quds (Jerusalem)."
The Hamas "army" is seen conducting an array of operations modeled on attacks launched against Israel from Gaza - including several attacks in recent weeks that the terror group has denied responsibility for.
It appears to be an attempt to showcase a recently-announced "popular army", which the Islamist terror group said it formed following Operation Protective Edge to "liberate Palestine".
In one scene, the terrorists are seen raiding a model IDF post and kidnapping an Israeli soldier.

If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

I know.
“... and surely you aren’t saying ‘no’ to that, as I don’t know that you had time to read it.”
I was saying no to that. I did read what was there.
“I believe you are saying ‘no’ to the airplanes that are disappearing? Is that right?”
I have no idea what you mean by that. Why would I say ‘no’ to a fact (i.e. airplanes have gone missing)?
LOL...’some days are just better than others’, so ignore incomplete statements or questions.
