Hamas puts its pogrom on video

Hamas puts its pogrom on video


No one at Friday’s screening in New York of raw footage of the atrocities committed by Hamas during its October 7 invasion of Israel will forget what they saw. The journalist next to us, at the Israeli consulate in New York, was crying. Mouths seemed to remain open, even after the rampage recorded by jubilant Hamas terrorists on their GoPros ended, and Israeli officials tried to make sense of what we saw.

Why did the Hamas men, faced with the corpse of a teenage girl, start to applaud? Why did they argue over who would behead a Thai guest worker they had shot, then proclaim “Allahu akbar” with each blow to his neck?
