The Israeli military has discovered thousands of hours of footage showing Hamas interrogators torturing Palestinian civilians in Gaza. The videos, captured by CCTV cameras inside a Hamas military base, depict horrific scenes of men chained and beaten, with guards appearing indifferent to the suffering. The footage, which dates back to 2018-2020, corroborates previous reports by human rights groups documenting Hamas’s systematic abuse of its own people, including political opponents, those accused of collaborating with Israel, and even gay men. This chilling evidence further highlights the brutal reality of life under Hamas rule, where fear and repression are pervasive, and the basic human rights of Palestinians are routinely violated.

Gaza’s most prominent Islamic scholar, Professor Salman al-Dayah, has issued a powerful fatwa condemning Hamas’s 7 October attack on Israel. This rare critique, presented in a detailed six-page document, argues that the attack violated Islamic principles governing jihad by failing to consider the potential for excessive civilian casualties and widespread destruction. Dr Dayah, a respected religious authority in Gaza, emphasizes the importance of protecting non-combatants and avoiding actions that would provoke a disproportionate response from the enemy. He stresses that the attack’s devastating consequences directly contradict Islamic teachings and demonstrate a failure by Hamas to uphold its obligations to the Palestinian people.

As a busker who was recently attacked by a pro-Palestinian protester in Melbourne during what was touted as the biggest protest in decades, I can attest to the chaos and violence that ensued on Bourke Street. My colleague Konstantin and I were simply going about our usual business, entertaining passersby with our music when the confrontation occurred. What started as a demand for us to declare support for “the children of Gaza” quickly escalated into a physical altercation that left us shaken and our equipment severely damaged.
The incident highlights a disturbing trend where individuals feel emboldened to use violence and intimidation to push their agendas onto others.… Continue reading
The footage showing Hamas terrorists beating hungry Gazans for “stealing” aid is truly heartbreaking and infuriating. It’s a stark reminder of the extent to which Hamas cares nothing for the well-being of the Palestinian people they claim to represent. To see innocent civilians being subjected to such brutal treatment just for trying to access aid that was rightfully theirs is deeply distressing.
Hamas’s actions in this video, where they violently beat Gazan civilians and accuse them of being thieves, are a clear indication of their callous disregard for the basic human rights of those living in Gaza. These masked individuals, supposedly representing Hamas, are perpetuating a cycle of cruelty and oppression that continues to harm the very people they are supposed to protect.… Continue reading
I am absolutely appalled by the recent news of a Texas woman attempting to drown a 3-year-old Palestinian American child in a possible hate crime incident. The sheer magnitude of this act of violence and hatred is horrifying beyond words. How could someone, in their right mind, choose to harm a defenseless child purely based on their background and religion? The thought of this innocent child being targeted in such a vicious manner is sickening.
The details of the incident, where the woman approached the child’s mother with racist interrogations and then proceeded to physically assault both the mother and the children, are deeply disturbing.… Continue reading
Gazans call for Hamas overthrow, flee through IDF humanitarian corridor
It’s about time. The sooner Hamas is gone, the better off everyone is. I’m glad to see that more and more people are waking up to that reality. While we can’t expect Hamas to be completely eradicated, it seems that its days as a serious organization are numbered at this point. And that’s a step in the right direction.
I hope that peace can be achieved moving forward. The people of Gaza have suffered for far too long under the rule of Hamas. It’s heartbreaking to see the destruction and loss of life caused by their actions.… Continue reading
