Hamas Is Purging Gaza of Its Critics

Well, that took about an hour. 

As the Israelis withdrew from the Gaza war zone, Hamas terrorists needed somebody to shoot, so they decided to turn their fire on their fellow Palestinians.

Their bloodlust knows no bounds. 

Nobody is shocked, of course. They are Hamas. This is Gaza. Barbarians gonna barbarian. I am quite certain that everybody who negotiated this ceasefire expected the Palestinians to turn on each other. 

Much of the intra-Palestinian violence in recent days has taken place around the Shuja’iyya neighborhood of Gaza City, where, according to Hamas-affiliated social media, the group carried out a widespread “security campaign” against rivals, believed to be the powerful Dormush clan.

Hamas is also said to have moved against the Abu Samra family in Deir al-Balah in central Gaza and called for the death of Khan Younis militia leader Housam al-Astal, who was interviewed by the Telegraph last week, and Yasser Abu Shabab in Rafah. Both men are believed to have collaborated tactically with Israel and accepted material support.

‘Dragged to the execution site’

The execution video showed Hamas fighters moving a large crowd out of the way so as not to be hit by bullets before the killings took place. Some of the prisoners were shirtless and some were dragged to the execution site while being beaten.

Separate footage, bearing the insignia of Hamas’s al-Qassam Brigades, showed armed militants riding in the back of an SUV with dead bodies at their feet

Hamas was always happy to shoot a Gazan or 10 if they got out of line, but now that they can wander the streets without fear of an Israeli drone firing on them, Hamas has been rounding up their perceived enemies and executing them in the streets.

I started seeing videos--unedited, so I decided not to share them due to their graphic nature--of Hamas (and other clans) going through the streets to execute whomever they disliked shortly after the ceasefire was announced. As in hours after the ceasefire was announced, this was already happening. 

As a Palestinian who openly opposes Hamas and rejects the glorified myths our society keeps repeating, I can’t stay silent about the sheer hypocrisy I see from many Western liberals.

How can you defend a movement that executes its own people, by shooting them in the street, without trial, for merely disagreeing or being labeled “collaborators”? How can you call that “resistance” while those very scenes mirror the barbarism you’d condemn anywhere else in the world?

You claim to stand for liberal values, for human rights, for justice. But your empathy collapses when the victims are Palestinians murdered by other Palestinians, when it doesn’t fit the neat narrative of oppressor and oppressed.

What does that say about your values, really?

If you can overlook public executions and rule by terror just because the perpetrators shout “liberation,” then maybe your solidarity isn’t rooted in morality but in ideology.

Mr FAFO, whose death I reported the other day, was executed by a rival clan in what appears to be a budding civil war. It's one I expect Hamas to come out of on top, if for no other reason than they are the most organized of the barbarian groups. 

There are far too many videos you can find that show the executions without censorship, but I did find one where the final act of murder was removed. It gives you a sense of the barbarity, as crowds watch and film as gunmen lecture the audience about the consequences of disobedience. 

Of course, all the pro-Hamas people are angry about the ceasefire, and silent about the latest Hamas atrocities. Jews defending themselves is "genocide," but Hamas executing Palestinians after waging a war intended to maximize civilian casualties is just "resistance" to the colonizers. 

They've also dropped the whole genocide narrative since they're now posting videos of very healthy children dancing in the streets this week to celebrate the ceasefire.

Where are you guys? 

Oh yeah, protesting the very ceasefire you spent the last two years calling for.

You've never been for the people of Palestine. If you were, you'd be demanding the eradication of Hamas by any means necessary, and if you did that, you'd come to the ugly realization that most of them support the terror because they are a culture of death.

The American left doesn't know what to say or do--they certainly can't, with few exceptions (Joe Biden thanked Trump, so there is that...)--praise Trump. They have been impugning his motives for so long that they can't easily reverse themselves. And they can't put the focus on Hamas atrocities, because that would undermine the whole "genocide" narrative. 

But the fact is that Israel was forced into this brutal war due to Hamas' murderous nature, and even when Israel finally pulls back, Hamas is so committed to spreading death that they must slake their thirst for blood by killing their fellow Palestinians. 

The whole "peace" movement has always been a farce. It was never about saving lives; it was always about backing anti-Israel terrorists.
