Following the dictates of the Quran such as 5:51 – “O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and Nasara (Christians) as friends.” There’s 9:73: “O you prophet, perform jihad against the infidels and the hypocrites, and be harsh with them. And their abode will be hell, and evil is the final place.” There’s 47:4: “So when you meet those who became infidels, so strike the necks until you have made a great slaughter among them.” Lastly, there’s 25:52: “So do not obey the infidels, and perform jihad against them with a big jihad.”
That’s exactly what took place, three years ago today, when the Islamic terrorist group Hamas launched the largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. On that day nearly 1,200 Israelis were killed and 251 people taken hostage.
As Jihad Watch pointed out, “Terrorists burned people and pets alive, children among them, looted homes, set houses and neighborhoods on fire, took civilians and bodies and filmed it. One terrorist called his parents from a victim’s phone and said he had butchered ten Jews, including the woman whose phone he had taken and her husband.” The article continued, “…they shot civilians on the roads, in shelters and at intersections then drove on to the communities. They shot the old, fathers and mothers with children, and teenagers. They also killed whoever was in the way, including foreign workers.”
The attacks against Israel continue…
The IDF published data marking this third anniversary indicating that more than 31,000 rocket launches have been carried out toward Israel:
– Approximately 10,200 from the Gaza Strip
– Approximately 20,000 from Lebanon
– Approximately 1,200 from Iran
– Approximately 50 from Syria
– Approximately 90 from Yemen
Keep in mind that Israel is about the size of the state of New Jersey.
In spite of all this the mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, had the audacity today to post on X after speaking of the killing of Israelis and abduction of others wrote, “The suffering did not begin or end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government’s devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which” (he says) “killed more than 74,000 Palestinians-including more than 21,000 children.” Yes, the mayor just could not resist pointing his finger at Israel with his accusations of genocide on a day that killed the most Jews since the Holocaust.
