On Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas’ marauders crossed over from Gaza into Israel, murdered more than 1,200 innocent civilians, kidnapped hundreds more, raped women and beheaded children.
Here’s a brief but sadly necessary history lesson.
On Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas’ marauders crossed over from Gaza into Israel, murdered more than 1,200 innocent civilians, kidnapped hundreds more, raped women and beheaded children.
Responding to the attack, and striving to rescue the hostages, the Israel Defense Forces began a limited ground operation in Gaza six days later, on Oct. 13.
The Israeli army then took another two weeks to launch its full-force assault on Hamas, which began on Oct. 27.
And yet all over America, from Midtown Manhattan to Stanford’s leafy campus, the crowd calling itself “pro-Palestine” chose Oct. 7, specifically and deliberately, as its “Day of Action.”
Leaflets shared anywhere from social media to city lampposts show a host of masked Hamas terrorists, fresh from the killing fields, flashing victory signs.
The caption calls on supporters to show up “for our martyrs.”
This decision speaks volumes.
The thugs who took to the streets on Tuesday weren’t supporting Gazans or mourning the loss of Palestinian lives.
They were celebrating the massacre of Israeli Jews, and letting Americans know that we’re next in line.
If that sounds alarmist, consider what an actual pro-Palestinian demonstration might’ve looked like.
