Something we’ve been saying all along…

[Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib @afalkhatib]

Hamas is a genocidal cult: Recently uncovered documents from slain Hamas leader and October 7 mastermind Yahya Sinwar reveal the depth of his depravity and the extent to which he knowingly steered Gaza toward catastrophe. Handwritten notes drafted a year before the attack show Sinwar anticipated a ferocious Israeli counter‑offensive, even speculating, in his own words, about the possibility of an Israeli nuclear retaliation on Gaza. Despite uncertainty over whether Iran or Hezbollah would join the fight, he outlined a plan to deploy up to ten thousand fighters from Gaza to seize Israeli towns, expel civilians, hold hostages, and wage what he described as a life‑or‑death battle. These notes align with earlier documents from Sinwar’s archive detailing his intent to use extreme brutality to maximize terror, fear, and psychological trauma among Israelis.

The implications are stark. Hamas’s crimes against humanity were not only committed against Israelis but also against the Palestinian people. The fascist organization employed ISIS‑grade tactics, fully aware that the attack went far beyond any military objective and could provoke overwhelming Israeli retaliation. Sinwar’s delusions were matched only by his ignorance: Israel does not need nuclear weapons to inflict devastating harm on Gaza. Yet Hamas deliberately launched an intentionally genocidal assault, predicting, and banking on, an Israeli survival response that would devastate Gaza and then be weaponized for global sympathy. In doing so, Hamas sacrificed 2.3 million Palestinians for a propaganda strategy.

This alone should compel the immediate, unconditional, and unequivocal rejection of Hamas by anyone claiming to support Palestinian rights. It should erase any doubt that Islamist extremists pose an existential threat to Palestinian survival, freedom, and the possibility of building a society not dragged into wars its rulers knowingly design to be catastrophic. When you are the weaker party facing the most far‑right government in Israel’s history, your obligation is to safeguard your people, not gamble their lives on apocalyptic fantasies. Hamas’s failure to do so is a betrayal worthy of absolute condemnation. It forfeits any Hamas claim to political relevance and demands that those responsible for October 7 be treated as traitors and murderers of their own people.

Where is the left now?
Where are the “pro-Palestinian” and “anti war” activists when the Islamic Republic is killing innocent Iranians?
At least 20 people got killed in 10 days protests including 4 children….
Same story, my friends, the same story I once told @billmaher.

Only time will tell what will happen next here.
But most of us can agree, this is the start of the end of Israel's once proud democracy. Benjamin Netanyahu's day of infamy - opinion https://t.co/rjf0gyBhbW

Who would’ve thought that ridiculous ‘progressive’ ideas are the reasons ⁦@TheDemocrats⁩ are failing? Here’s a thought; to win in 2024 have a common sense; non-socialist policy to run on 🤯! https://t.co/hOfM3oa157

We live in the western world yet forcing women to go along with births they don’t want is arcane and barbaric. The power of choice makes us a free society https://t.co/wOYlQ6jOTg

Another step on Ukraine's EU path. Honoured to receive from @ZelenskyyUa the answers to @EU_Commission questionnaire, handed over by @vonderleyen only 10 days ago. Extraordinary times take extraordinary steps and extraordinary speed. @Denys_Shmyhal @StefanishynaO @AndriyYermak

Great video on Russia motivations for invading and occupying #Ukraine, as well as most of Eastern Europe. Rest assured Putin has bigger plans for the region. @CaspianReport https://t.co/zW4CKtoZdt

[American Jewish Committee @AJCGlobal]

We hear you loud and clear, President @ZelenskyyUa.

We stand in total solidarity with you and the Ukrainian people. 🇺🇦✡️

We won’t be silent in the face of Russian aggression.

[Michael Rosenblum @rosenrizzle]

We should thank you president Zelensky. You are a true hero to all of those fighting against larger opponents and inspiration for us all.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Thankful for US and @POTUS personal leadership in striking in the heart of Putin’s war machine and banning oil, gas and coal from US market. Encourage other countries and leaders to follow.

The earthquake in #Haiti 🇭🇹 has devastated an already fragile nation. But investing in education can be one step in transitioning a nation out of poverty. Help us rebuild the K-13 school Mixte de Regnier, and let's send the kids back to school!🚸 https://t.co/1fWTOoPE9E
