What the Pro-Hamas Crowd Doesn't Get and Never Will

Editor’s Note: This article contains graphic images from the horrific October 7, 2023, terrorist attack on Israel.

Yesterday marked the one-year anniversary of the brutal October 7 attacks, where thousands of Hamas militants invaded southern Israel, leaving behind a swath of rape, murder, torture, and destruction in its wake. It’s sparked an ongoing war in Gaza, with pro-Hamas leftists coming out of the woodwork, taking over college campuses nationwide and calling for the death of all Jews. 

These people cannot understand why no one cares about dead Palestinians. It’s like Nazis crying over the charred victims of Dresden. It’s not hard to figure out why normal people don’t care, but these pro-terrorist agitators never will.

It's because the Palestinians are pro-terrorist trash—all of them. The two biggest exports of the Palestinian people are terrorism and chaos. There’s a reason why no Arab country wants them. There’s a record here: they tried to assassinate the late King Hussein in Jordan, then fled into Lebanon—both nations engulfed by the mayhem brought by these people. 

Also, when you set people on fire, rape them, kill babies, and commit the levels of barbarity captured on film, no one is going to cry that Hamas’ Gaza is being turned into a parking lot. You don’t get to start a war and then cry when you get bulldozed. The only people who think what’s happening in Gaza is a war crime or a genocide are pro-Hamas, antisemitic, and anti-Israel. I don’t want to hear the other side—the pro-Palestinian side calls for the destruction of Israel. 

How can there be a two-state solution with terrorists? All that would do, if this were to be agreed upon theoretically, is provide a massive base from which Israel’s enemies can commit terrorist attacks, much like what we saw on October 7. The Jewish State is a nation without strategic depth—this would be a catastrophic move, though one supported by dense leftists and Joe Biden. 

I’m sick of the ceasefire talk; Hamas is never going to agree to a pause or the release of the remaining hostages. Storm Rafah, kill the rest of these thugs, and keep troops in the region because these Palestinians cannot be trusted. 

October 7 was the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust and launched the ongoing Israel-Hamas war, which is rapidly becoming a regional war as Israel has begun picking apart the allied terror group Hezbollah in Lebanon. The attacks shook Israel to its core and convinced the population that it could no longer afford to tolerate genocidal maniacs on its border. Israel’s war on terror will be relentless and ruthless toward the enemies of the Jewish State. 

We should wish them luck and provide every material resource necessary, as they’re also killing our enemies. 

I still can’t get over everything we know about that terrible day—some folks think we should cry about the Palestinian dead [WARNING: Graphic Images]:

Nope. Not over here. Keep dropping the bombs, Israel.
