Videos of Hamas attack suggest a chilling evolution of jihadist tactics
NBC News ^ | October 27, 2023 | By Anna Schecter

Posted on 10/28/2023 11:04:10 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

The brutality and elation of Hamas militants as they killed Israeli civilians — including babies, young children and the elderly — is evident in an Israeli government compilation of videos shown to two dozen journalists in New York on Friday.

Israeli officials said they showed the compilation to President Joe Biden when he visited Israel on October 18th. They also showed it to a group of journalists in Israel, including NBC’s Raf Sanchez, on Wednesday. The atrocities depicted suggest that jihadism has evolved in chilling and perverse new ways.

Throughout the roughly 45 minutes of footage, the attackers cheered as they killed unarmed people. Hamas members shot dead civilians in their living rooms, lit houses on fire, and hurled a grenade at a father trying to protect his three children, killing the father and one child, and partially blinding another. After civilians were shot dead in the car, Hamas militants pulled their limp bodies from the vehicle, got inside and drove away.

The footage showed Hamas members engaged in the type of butchery depicted in ISIS videos. In one scene, a Hamas member asks another fighter to film him as he fires rounds into the head of an Israeli civilian who appears to already be dead. In another, a group of Hamas terrorits argue over who gets to cut off the head of a Thai man who was working in Israel. One of them then struggles to chop off his head with a hoe.

The footage includes photographs of two babies that had been shot in the head and two infants who appear to have been burnt to a char.

High on drugs, infused with hatred and evil.
Kill ‘em all; let God sort them out.

They were celebrating Israeli children being burnt alive and shot to death in front of their parents. They paraded and desecrated the bodies of dead Israelis murdered by Hamas.

Civilized people never celebrate suffering.

We don’t celebrate theirs, but you reap what you sow.

Important that this is from NBC. At one time they would have spent 15 minutes about the Squad statements and how Hamas should have their side heard.

This evil is becoming hard to suppress. Not just websites but NBC tell some of it.

You are better than I. Not in the “we” who don’t celebrate the bad guys getting theirs. Sorry but I’m too far from saintliness. Hamas has done evil.

Palestinian teachers both secular and nonsecular who taught hatred should face the same level of justice as Nazi concentration camp personnel.

It wasn't just Hamas on that barabric killing spree.....Palestinians were also with them

Excuse me but Hamas are Palestinians.   Hamas is their government.   Why differentiate between them?

Any time my coworker goes on about how Palestinians have been held prisoner in Gaza by Israel, I will think of this article and seethe.

Kill every last one of these savages.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yup... doing at least part of the job that the Children of Israel didn’t do when God commanded them to the first time.

Deuteronomy 7:1 When the Lord your God brings you into the land you are entering to possess and drives out before you many nations—the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites, seven nations larger and stronger than you—
2 and when the Lord your God has delivered them over to you and you have defeated them, then you must destroy them totally. Make no treaty with them, and show them no mercy.
3 Do not intermarry with them. Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons,
4 for they will turn your children away from following me to serve other gods, and the Lord’s anger will burn against you and will quickly destroy you.
5 This is what you are to do to them: Break down their altars, smash their sacred stones, cut down their Asherah poles and burn their idols in the fire.
6 For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession.

May have something to do with having the same thugs come after their families if they fail to show up to the Hamas rallies.

Remember, the Fatah terrorists used US-funded police stations to torture fellow Palestinians whom neighbors had tattled on for one reason or another, so there are dissenters, even in spite of fear of retaliation. There must be more, or the terrorists wouldn’t need to make examples out of the ones brave enough to either voice an opinion or refuse to participate.
There just aren’t enough to matter.

I fail to see that this is any different from Islam of old.

Yes. Unfortunately, no one today has the stomach to do what needs to be done.

So the headline acknowledges jihad tactics but the first sentence of the article says hamas militants.....

Not worth reading further (although the source itself was clear it wasn’t worth reading)

"innocuous headline" was my reaction, too.

"evolution of jihadist tactics"
Just an "Evolution"? No, it's more like a sudden, chaotic state change than a mere "evolution."

This is becoming more and more bizarre.

Jews in the UK need to be getting out of these big cities which are infested with moslems, and candidly, looking at the Right of Return and what that would involve for them and their family.

These anti-Jewish protests (because that is what they are) certainly has revealed the muslim hatred and their capacity for violence. As usual they always infiltrate and wear masks of ‘moderates’ when in fact they come here with their inbred hatred and violent tendencies....not just for the Jews But for us as well.
