The narrative is that Israel sponsor Hamas, and/or the CIA have something to do with it. This tweet is typical.
We do know the CIA backed the Taliban against the Soviet Union, but later had to fight the Taliban in the “war or terrorism” when coalition forces invaded Afghanistan. And it’s a fair bet to say that the CIA and Israel’s Mosad have their fingers in many pies in the Middle East.
But then so do most Islamist states or organisations – for example, the Israel strike on the Iranian compound in Syria was an attack on a number of actors that are involved in such clandastine activities themselves.
Since 2013 Iran has maintained a presence of its troops in Syria in response to the Syrian civil war, as Syria is a crucial ally of Iran. Additionally, it has been involved in training and funding paramilitary forces from Hezbollah, along with foreign militias from Iraq and Afghanistan, not only in Syria but also in neighboring Lebanon.
But, does the conspiracy theory hold up in sense claimed, that the CIA and Israel have been funding Hamas?
Hold that thought, that question, and for the moment, suppose it is true, that the CIA and Israel have been funding Hamas. This raises another question, and one that conspiracy theoriests of various sorts will be keen to answer – why would they? But let’s park the question of the motivation of the CIA and Israel. Let’s just assume they did.
What next? What can it tell us about the Muslims of Hamas that we didn’t know already?
If you’re a member of a law abiding organisation, a “religion of peace”, that’s at peace with its neighbours, because your neighbours are “people of the book”, what would you do if those neighers said, “Hey, here’s some money, buy some arms and come and attack us so we can make you look bad?” Would you be stupid enough to fall for it?
You see, the problem with this conspiracy theory is it absolves Hamas of all agency in the atrocities they commit, and futher, it is a particularly antisemitic conspiracy, because it feeds off the many antisemitic tropes about Jews and their coniving ways.
It still takes the motivation of the Muslims* of Hamas to actually do the following:
Carry out the atrocities of October 7.
Continue to fire rockets into Israel.
Commit suicide bombings of buses and other targets in Israel.
Indoctrinate their children on Palestinian TV to hate Jews, to become martyrs for Islam, and to stab Jews.
This hatred has been going on for 1400 years, instigated initially by Mohammed when the Jews of Medina would not side with him in his battles – his ‘final solution’ being to massacre the Jews of Medina, and to be invloved in that personally. This has set the model for Jew hatred in Islam ever since.
No, Muslims that support Hamas, al Qaida, ISIS, Boko Haram and many other extremist and terrorist Muslim organisations are fully motivated by Islam, and it is their own agency that is responsible for anything they do.
So, even if it were true that the CIA and Israel funded Hamas, it still takes Muslims to commit the horrifica attacks of October the 7th, and just to remind you, this is what they did, much of it taken from their own phones and body cams. I must warn you that this is terrible, but you have a duty to know what Hamas is capable of.
And this isn’t unique. And nor is this denial of Muslim agency. It happened with ISIS. Of course Obama pulled out of Iraq too soon, leaving it in a mess, and of course Bush and Blair take some blame for attacking Iraq, even though Saddam Hussein was a brutal dicator. But it still required “ordinary Muslims”, “nice young men”, “indoctrinated young girls” to make their way to Syria and Iraq to join ISIS and start genocide of Yazidis, the taking of sex slaves, the burning alive, the chopping of heads, the cricifixions, and all manner of barbarity that echoes the ways of Mohammed and his Merry Men of 1400 years ago.
Muslims are agents that follow the Quran and Hadith. When they kill the way they did on October the 7th, it wasn’t some unusual event, or an act of resistance. It was Islamic terrorism, the Islamic terrorism we have seen time and time again.
It’s one heck of a long list for a “religion of peace”.
* Muslims of Hamas … when we talk about hamas, ISIS, Boko Haram, and other Islamic terrorist groups, there is often the claim theya re “Nothing to do with Islam” or they do not follow Islam as they should. But it’s only ever Muslims. Even on October 7, I don’t know of any Christians or Druze from Gaza that joined them. Historically there have been instances of Chistians persecuting Jews in Palestine, but these are usually separate incidents. And in the 2oth and 21st centuries I don’t know of any Christians joining any Muslim Islamic terrorist organisation. Why is this significant? Because the narrative of the Middle East conflict is often framed as Israeli v Arab or Jew v Arab, when there are Arab Jews, and other non-Muslim Arabs, and Irainains consider themselves Persion, not Arab, and many reject the “Arab religion”, Islam. It would be far more accurate to speak as we find: Muslims engage in Islamic terrorism, not anyone else.
“Nothing to do with Islam!” A plea we’ve heard time after time in the West whenever an Islamic terrorist attack has occurred.
Don’t look away, you who are ignorant and say “Islamism is not Islam”, or you shockingly clueless apologists for Islamic madness, as you shout “Stop the genocide! Ceasefire!” and in the next breath “From the river to the sea!” – you have no idea what genocide is.
Listen to the “Allahu Akbar!” cries from the Hamas terrorists as they carry out their work for Allah, the killing of Jews, and the cheering Gazans shouting “Allahu Akbar!” as Hamas return with living and dead trophies of their butchery. This is what “From the river to the sea!” means; this is what ‘Genocide’ means.
I haven’t yet persuaded myself to post the videos here directly. You must take responsibility for yourself, and choose to witness them. Below are links to sites that contain them.
You Have a Duty to Witness Hamas
As horrific as these recordings are, they are a fraction of what happened. Some of the horrors were recorded, but have not been released.
This is Hamas – Some of the blood raw footage filmed and shared by Hamas of Gaza.
Hammas Massacre – Some of the same footage, more images, more horror.
(*These sites may be closed down at some point, by the sensitive souls that don’t want to stare human horror in its face; or by those that don’t like to offend the easily offended; or those who want to protect the bonds of wealth; or by those that love death as you love life.)
Worse Than Nazis?
This evidence should stand as a memorial to the victims of Islamic extremism. The images and videos, many recorded by Hamas and other Gazans themselves, should be on display in every Holocaust museum, because they rank with the work of the Nazis.
No! They are worse than even the Nazis. The horrific glee with which these Muslim ‘Palestinians’ shouted their praise for Allah as they butchered women, children, babies; the pride with which they phoned home to tell their parents of how many Jews they’d killed, surpasses the cold brutality of the Nazis.
If you don’t believe me, watch, and listen … you must listen. We become immune to visual atrocities. But it’s near impossible not to absorb the religious fanatical pleasure that fellow humans indulge in while they are raping and butchering another fellow human.
Videos and Witness Accounts
I suggest you look at and listen to the horrific evidence provided above. Here are other accounts where some of the terrible scenes are blurred out.
Eyewitness Accounts of Sexual Violence Against Israeli Women on October 7th
The interviewer asks, “How do you confront the claim that as long as allegedly there is no evidence of rape, we cannot clearly determine that those Israeli women experienced sexual violence?” (Does she know of Own Jones?)
I want whoever claims this and just wants justice, to come to me, look in my phone. What you see here, this blood stain, from here it was rolled down. I can’t make this public. There is only one interpretation, to the pictures I photographed. Not stories. What I touched with these hands, and saw with these eyes. That alone is enough to discredit any claims of this kind. I will present it at the Criminal Court of Justice in The Hague. There will be noone that can deny what I am telling and what I am showing.
I understand, more and more, that the world is talking to us with human logic, saying, “It can’t be. The UN denies it so it probably did not happen. Bring evidence.” I realised that I was there, when the evidence could be documented. I am here as a civil servant in he service of the people, in the service of the world. It’s for the world. The World needs to know this.
Interviewer, “Can you understand the sweeping denial of events, most of which were photographed? Are these political considerations, or maybe a degree of anti-Semitism?”
I think that the more unimaginable the horrors, the more convenient it is for people who want to deny them, to really stick to that narrative, that it couldn’t have happened. Because it’s so unimaginable, it’s so horrific.
I think we had to admit that anti-Semitism does exist, and we have seen very ugly parts of it in response to October 7.
It was rape. It was abuse. It was body part amputation, or both women and men. It was genital mutilation. We will never know the numbers or the scope. The significant point is they were not sporadic incidents. These were repeated incidents, at the same time in several areas.
Prof. Ruth Halperin-Kaddari
Press Conf. on Sexual Violence Aspects of 7.10 – November 14, 2023
It is a potential existential error for liberal democratic societies to hear what Islamic extremists say, and then pretend they don’t mean it.
The distinction between a love of death and a love of life is important in understanding Islamic extremism. It’s the basis upon which too many Muslims in Gaza allow their children to be martyrs for Hamas. They may love their children. But too often in the warped manner of a death cult, they love even more the martyrdom of their child, for Allah.
This is no ‘Islamophobic’ message of mine. It comes from their own mouths.
Mohammed Hijab
We hear it from our very own Mohammed Hijab (you can appreciate the narcisism, and the homoerotic appeal to fellow enthusiasts – his sexual outbursts are legendary).
The difference between us and them is that for them, they think life begins. For us, we believe that death begins. We believe that life begins at death. We don’t care about death. We love death.
When you see who else shares his cultish view, you might start to suspect the benefit to the West of allowing extremists to flourish – tolerating intolerance is itself a suicidal norm now found across the West. Free speech for Islam, that promotes removing your free speech by killing you.
Mohammed Siddique Khan
While you might think Mo Hijab a bit of blow hard, with all his all talk and no action. You can’t think the same of Mohammed Saddique Khan, who, with his fellow Muslims was responsible for much death, injury and destruction, as one of the Londion 7/7 terrorists of July 2005. Suicide bombing is popular among members of the death cult.
We Love Death As You Love Life
Mohammed Siddique Khan
Mohammad Sidique Khan (Urdu: محمد صدیق خان; 20 October 1974 – 7 July 2005) was a Pakistani-British terrorist and the oldest of the four Islamist suicide bombers and believed to be the leader responsible for the 7 July 2005 London bombings, in which bombs were detonated on three London Underground trains and one bus in central London, suicide attacks, killing 56 people including the attackers and injuring over 700. Khan bombed the Edgware Road train killing himself and six other people.
There’s a certain irrational irony to his words, that beckons his own death at the hands of his enemies. Yet, the greater irony is we don’t believe them, until they do it.
The following link is for a French documentary (English voiceover) that follows an ISIS group, and witnesses the build up and final end of one of the Jihadists who prepares to make a suicide attack, and his fairwell has the air of a sinister pleasure, as he takes a captive on the mission with him. The psychological manipulation reminds me of other videos where ISIS terrorists express their love and best wishes for gay men they are about to throw off a roof. Psychopaths made by Islam.
Palestinian women are not like any other women in the world. They view their children as insignificant compared to the homeland.
Abbas Zaki, Fatah Central Committee member
Children of Palestine
The extremism of Islam is bred into the children of Muslim from an early age, and it includes the hatred of Jews, as many ex-Muslims will testify. And sadly, this is a key feature of the views of Muslims of Gaza, who elected Hamas. Even as Hamas committed the 7th October 2023 attacks on Israel, and returned with bodies and hostages, they had the cheering support of the majority of Gazans.
This should not be surprising, and many of those that committed the atrocities of 7th October 2023 are of an age that will have received such a Hamas ‘education’.
I will make my body a bomb that will blast the flesh of Zionists. … I will tear their bodies into little pieces and cause them more pain than they will ever know.
Palestinian Muslim boy, age 11
How do children acquire this mindset?
Mothers of a Martyr
This is a story of one mother who glorifies her son’s martyrdom: Mother of Martyr.
Palestinian Muslim ‘Education’
What can you expect of children who are indoctrinated like this: The Palestinian Incitement Exposed. Some of the scenes from this video:
When you hear the question, “Why are there so many children is Israeli prisons?”, now you know.
The Islamic corruption of innocence has been going on for so long, is it any wonder children grow up hating Jews.
Palestinian Children – The Lagacy of a Death Cult
Death Cult Gazans Wish Martyrdom On Their Children
Antisemitism Terrorist Training of Children
Gazan child …
We asked Hitler why he left some of you (Jews) alive. He did so in order to show us how wicked you are. We will come to you from under the ground and hammer fear into your hearts, and above the ground we will tear your bodies apart with our rockets. Scram into the shelters, you mice, you sons of a Jewish woman!
In this recording of the IDF calling and warning Palestinians to leave an area, this is how those Palestinians live their death cult.
They expess tehir wish to be martyrs, specifically to use their own deaths and those of their children as propaganda tools against Israel. They explicitly use themselves and their children as human shields, to protect Hamas (there’s no way of knowing the extent to which Abu Younes is involved with Hamas himself – ‘civillian’ is a generous presumption, given his response.)
They don’t see Jews as humans, and cite the Quran and other Muslim texts as reasons for hating the Jews.
Israel – A Contrast
Despite the many antisemitic induced lies about the war on Hamas of 2023/24, there are of course too many Jews that also devalue life. But that’s not the basis of the Jewish state, or its multi-ethnic and multi-faith citizens who would prefer peace.
We can forgive the Arabs [Muslims] for killing our children. We cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill their children. We will only have peace with the Arabs [Muslims] when they love their children more than they hate us.
Golda Meir
Another statement expressed the wish for life that drives Israelis
We Jews have a secret weapon in our struggle with the Arabs – We have no place to go.
I guess we have no choice. Either we do everything that is possible, and may seem to others as impossible, and just give up. Or we do everything that is really impossible and we remain alive. There’s one more basic thing that I think that people outside of Israel must realize, and if they understand and accept that, maybe other things will fall into place.
For instance, we’re not the only people in the world who’ve had difficulties with neighbors; that has happened to many. We are the only country in the world whose neighbors do not say, “We are going to war because we want a certain piece of land from Israel,” or waterways or anything of that kind. We’re the only people in the world where our neighbors openly announce they just won’t have us here. And they will not give up fighting and they will not give up war as long as we remain alive. Here.
So this is the crux of the problem: it isn’t anything concrete that they want from us. That’s why it doesn’t make sense when people say, “Give up this and give up the other place. Give up the Golan Heights,” for instance. What happened when we were not on the Golan Heights? We were not on the Golan Heights before ’67, and for 19 years, Syria had guns up there and shot at our agricultural settlements below. We were not on the Golan Heights! So what, if we give up the Golan Heights, they will stop shooting? We were not in the Suez Canal when the war started.
It’s because Egypt and Syria and the other Arab [Muslim] countries refuse to acquiesce to our existence. Therefore there can be no compromise. They say we must be dead. And we say we want to be alive. Between life and death, I don’t know of a compromise. And that’s why we have no choice.”
60 Minutes Interview, September 1973
Thankfully, more and more of the Arab Muslim world is seeing sense, seeing peace and prosperity of not following the expansionist route to Islamic domination (though stealthier means are afoot and aided by the gullible West).
Perhaps after the defeat of Hamas, if a flourishing peaceful Gaza can be rebuilt, perhaps peace will follow.
However, in the back of your mind you must remain cogniscent of an uncomfortable set of facts:
Muslims believe Mohammed was the perfect example.
Mohammed slaughtered Jews personally. Mohammed preached the end times, where
Every tree and rock will say, “Oh Muslim, there is a Jew behind me. Come kill him.”
In a cult where the word of Allah is supposedly revealed to the prophet Mohammed, and is supposed to be valid for all time, even in liberal Muslim societies, how do you prevent this thematic hatred of Jews re-appearing?
Even peaceful Muslims, like the Ahmadiyya, are persecuted by fellow Muslims. Why? Because they invented an additional prophet to explain away many non-peaceful aspects of Islam. Ahmadis are persecuted in Pakistan, where their sect originated. You might wonder if they feel the same as Golda Meir …
We will only have peace with fellow Muslims when they love their children more than they hate us.
Hope For Deradicalisation
This is Manwar Ali. He was a radicalised Muslim, and as with many others, he bought into the death cult.
“.. for a long time I lived for death. I was a young man who believed that jihad is to be believed in the language of force and violence.”
You can watch Manwar present his story in this TED talk. Sadly, the indoctrination of children into radical Islam could take several generations to undo, if it can be done at all. Please watch. It’s a moving story.
