IDF video of hostage tunnel shocked and divided Israel

It's almost a year now as Israel has been devastated and emotionally exhausted over the Israel-Hamas war. But on Tuesday, it was even worse after IDF Spokesman R-Adm. Daniel Hagari showed chilling images of the Gaza tunnel where Hamas executed six hostages last month.

The three-minute video clip showed Hagari descending from a children’s room with brightly colored walls and paintings of Snow White and Mickey Mouse in the Tel Al-Sultan neighborhood of Rafah, 20 meters into the hell where Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, Alex Lobanov, Almog Sarusi, and Ori Danino were held and murdered--shot multiple times in the head. 

It is believed that the men hostages attempted a last-ditch effort to protect the female hostages, but they were killed along with the women.

“Here is the place in the tunnel where the hostages were murdered,” Hagari said in his unemotional monotone. “Here you see their blood on the floor. Here were the last moments of Hersh, Eden, Carmel, Ori, Almog, and Alex. Here they were brutally murdered. We will learn what happened here. We need to learn very well what happened here.

“It is very hard to survive here,” Hagari continued. “They were heroes, heroes who were killed in cold blood by murderous terrorists who build tunnels under the rooms of children and hide in them with hostages.”

Islamic jihad is a sick, evil, bloodthirsty act that is supposed to be holy. 

Hagari revealed the terrible conditions in which the hostages were kept – a low ceiling that didn't allow them to stand upright, a cesspool, bottles of urine, and no ventilation. He mentioned how extremely humid it was. He found a broken hairbrush, a chess set, a flashlight, magazines for an AK-47, and a bullet casing. Among all these items, there was also a copy of the Qur'an, the Islamic 'scripture' that calls for hating Jews and unleashing jihad against "the unbelievers."

The compassionate people of Israel watched the video and felt the suffocating heat of the tunnel, smelled the disgusting stench, sensed the fear the hostages must have endured, and heard the cries. As they viewed the disturbing images on the 8 p.m. news, the anger from October 7 returned, and their rage boiled over once more, while many useful idiots of the West marched and demonstrated for Hamas.

However, the anger among Israelis was widespread as the horrifying images were broadcasted. Many Israelis directed their frustration towards Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his administration, arguing that the hostages would not have been murdered if Israel had not stubbornly insisted on remaining in the Philadelphi Corridor, which is only a short distance from the tunnel.

They were angry that Netanyahu and the government didn't jump at what they thought was the deal at hand and concluded that in order to keep the same fate from happening the remaining hostages, the deal needed to be made immediately.

Those presenting this argument assume—despite a lack of clarity—that a deal is possible. They believe that Hamas, despite recently increasing its demands by adding more names to the list of terrorist murderers they want released, is open to negotiating an agreement. 

They obviously don't know Hamas.

Others, however, correctly directed their anger at Hamas, in this writer's opinion. They highlighted the Hamassholes' brutality, so evident in the clip, and saw the video as justification for not striking a deal with Hamas, but, rather, using harsher measures against the terrorist organization, including ending the supply of humanitarian aid.

If this is how Hamas behaves, Yediot Aharonot journalist Amichai Attali wrote, articulating this same mindset, then Israel should halt all but essential humanitarian aid – water and flour – to Gaza.

A nation so deeply divided over how to free the hostages – by an agreement that would include giving in to some of Hamas’s demands or by continued military pressure – viewed the same grisly video and came to opposite conclusions, which is exactly what Hamas hoped would happen.

It's fully understandable how families of the remaining hostages want an immediate deal with the terrorists, but it should not come as a surprise that the remaining hostages still alive would be murdered before handing them over, if that hasn't already happened, because this is how Jew hatred works.

The only solution to this situation is to eliminate Hamas and those who would try to eliminate Israel.

Biden says he spoke to a dead hostage

When you're on the last legs of your life's journey, one must wonder if it's possible to speak to those who died before you. In the latest episode of "Lyin' Biden" we learn that our so called president spoke to the American hostage, Hersh Goldberg-Polin and his family. 

Sadly, and horrifically, Hersh, an American-Israeli, was murdered by the scum known as Hamas and his body was recovered along with five Israeli hostages. They were executed at close range just prior to being rescued by the IDF. He was kidnapped by Hamas on October 7 at the Nova music festival.

The claim of communicating with the dead was made after Biden, 81, was asked if he had a message for the families of the hostages.

“I’ve spoken to the American hostage,” Biden said referring to Goldberg-Polin. “I spoke to his mom and dad, and we’re not giving up. We’re going to continue to push as hard as we can.”

“I am devastated and outraged,” Biden later wrote in a statement after meeting with the family, saying, “Hamas leaders will pay for these crimes.” 

“I have gotten to know his parents, Jon and Rachel. They have been courageous, wise, and steadfast, even as they have endured the unimaginable,” the barely sentient alleged president said. “They have been relentless and irrepressible champions of their son and of all the hostages held in unconscionable conditions.”

“I admire them and grieve with them more deeply than words can express. I know all Americans tonight will have them in their prayers, just as Jill and I will,” he added.

Hersh Goldberg-Polin

It is unlikely that all Americans will have them in their prayers tonight as we have discovered that anti-Semitism has unveiled itself in the West, and it's very ugly.

Hostages Ori Danino, Carmel Gat, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Alexander Lobanov and Almog Sarusi, who were kidnapped by Hamas during the Oct. 7 attacks, were found dead underground in the Rafah in the Gaza Strip.

Protests have erupted in Israel as Israelis plead with their government to prioritize securing a hostage deal with Hamas, but there is no logical reason Hamas would go along with a deal as they are winning the propaganda war. However, if Israel caves to the demands of the left calling for a ceasefire, Hamas will undoubtedly rearm, regroup and continue its promise to destroy Israel even if it takes ten thousand tries. Their words, not mine.

Meanwhile Canada and France have decided to stop supplying Israel with military aid. If Kamala Harris should win the presidential election in November, it's very likely she will decide to do the same, based on her record.
