WATCH: Hamas Terrorists Surrender en Masse, and the Photos and Videos Are Telling

By Bonchie | 11:15 AM on December 07, 2023The opinions expressed by contributors are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of RedState.com.
 
Hamas terrorists have started to surrender en masse in the area of Khan Younis, one of the terrorist government's last strongholds. The latest advance has the IDF operating in Southern Gaza, a move that has sparked outrage among those who want Israel to stop short of destroying Hamas (but hide that desire behind humanitarian concerns).
 

Photos and videos of Hamas fighters stripped to their underwear have begun to circulate showing the sheer numbers of prisoners being taken.


I look forward to the United Nations and the rest of the "international community" claiming that strip-searching terrorists before detaining them is somehow a violation of the laws of war. We all know that's coming, and there have already been a myriad of articles (such as this one from Reuters) quoting "Gaza health officials" claiming humanitarian abuses.

Not for one second do I believe they are actually surrendering.  They are congregating inside Israel for some nefarious reason yet to be seen.

'Squad' Dems double down on 'genocide' accusations against Israel, say IDF is 'targeting civilians'
Cori Bush says Israel has 'targeted' hospitals and committed war crimes
By Anders Hagstrom Fox News
Published December 7, 2023 1:35pm EST

"Squad" Democrats gathered on Capitol Hill to call for a permanent cease-fire in Gaza on Thursday, doubling down on accusations that Israel is targeting civilians and committing "genocide."

Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., held the press conference alongside Reps. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich. They also invited members of the Doctors Without Borders organization, which provides humanitarian aid in Gaza. Bush had vicious words for Israel during her opening remarks.

"When we hear genocidal rhetoric, when we witness devastation and mass murder, when we finance the bombs being dropped, when we intentionally disregard the suffering, we allow the people we represent to be complicit in mass atrocities," Bush said.

"And let me be clear about what's happening: These are war crimes. The targeting of civilians is a war crime; the targeting of medical facilities is a war crime, the starvation and withholding of water and electricity is a war crime; the collective punishment of 2.3 million people is a war crime, and we refuse to be silent," she added as Omar and Tlaib nodded in agreement.

It makes me wonder why these people don't talk to their Hamas buddies about not putting weapons in civilian areas.

It makes me wonder why these people don't talk to their Hamas buddies about not putting weapons in civilian areas.

Maybe they are threatened with being labeled "Jewish Sympathizers"?   Guaranteed to become cannon fodder.

Congress investigating media outlets that had reporters 'embedded' with Hamas

WND 12/8/2023

Reporters could be considered 'complicit' in deaths of Israelis

Congress has begun investigating various media outlets that had reporters "embedded" with Hamas during the terror organization's attack on Israel on Oct. 7.

That was when terrorists, likely drugged up and with instructions to commit atrocities against Israeli civilians, did just that, beheading babies and burning entire families alive.

Further details revealed after the attack that killed an estimated 1,400 show that the terrorists raped both men and women, and murdered them in stunningly brutal fashion.

Having reporters embedded with an event is a common occurrence for media organizations, such as at protests, parades and such. But the legal and ethical questions of allowing reporters to knowingly accompany terrorists on a murder spree raise red flags the size of the state of Texas.

It's the Washington Examiner that confirmed Republicans in the House are looking into the facts after footage was unearthed that shows freelance journalists for CNN, New York Times, AP and Reuters present during the terror.

Former Israeli Defense Minister: ‘Naive’ to Believe Gazans Seek Peace, Oppose Hamas

Those who believe Palestinians in Gaza oppose Hamas and would reciprocate Israeli efforts for peace are “naive,” according to former Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman, who argues that Hamas “Nazi terrorists” have “massive support” from Gazan civilians.

Israeli hostage Eitan Levi is murdered by Hamas

A 53-year-old Israeli taxi driver who was kidnapped by Hamas on Oct. 7 has been murdered, the Bat Yam municipality announced Friday in a statement obtained by Fox News.

The Israeli city where Eitan Levi once lived said they were informed by the military last night of his death.

"Eitan, a taxi driver, was driving his client from the center of the country to Kibbutz Be'eri just as the terrorists were taking over the area," it said. "His body is still held by Hamas in Gaza. We hug the family and will continue to accompany them all the way."

The Hostages and Missing Persons Families Forum said in a statement to Fox News that it "mourns the murder of Eitan Levi.

They described Levi as "a warm, loving family man who always cared for others over himself.

"Eitan was a responsible and dedicated man in all his endeavors. He has an only son, Shachar, and together they loved hiking and dining at fine steakhouses. Eitan loved animals, dogs in particular," it added.

"Today, the family received the devastating news that he was murdered near Kibbutz Be'eri after dropping off a friend at her home on that tragic Saturday morning," it also said.

Fox News' Yonat Friling and Ben Evansky contributed to this report.

Israel: Hamas Firing Rockets from Humanitarian Zone in Gaza Strip
 
JOEL B. POLLAK7 Dec 2023106
 
Hamas terrorists are firing rockets at Israeli civilians from within the Al-Mawasi humanitarian zone designated by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) as a “safe zone,” deliberately endangering Palestinian civilians, an Israeli spokesman said on Thursday.

Israel has set aside the Al-Mawasi area in the southwestern Gaza Strip, near the Mediterranean coast, that is meant to be free from any attacks, and it has encouraged Palestinian civilians to evacuate there, and aid agencies to set up facilities there.

“The IDF continues to call on the residents of the northern Gaza Strip and Gaza City to evacuate towards the area of Al-Mawasi, south of Wadi Gaza. The IDF recommends evacuating to the open areas in western Khan Yunis, in the area of Al-Mawasi,” it said on October 18.

Eylon Levy, addressing journalists, said that Hamas had fired rockets throughout the afternoon on Tuesday from Al-Mawasi, including a barrage of 12 rockets at 3:59 p.m. local time that were aimed at the Israeli city of Be’er Sheva and that were launched from close proximity to civilian tents and United Nations facilities in the humanitarian zone.
