Strong, strong viewer advisory as to the documentary about the savagery of the Hamas murderers against the Israelis a year ago. Israel will never forget and neither should civilized people everywhere. Go here to view an interactive map of the massacres.

Here in the West, Hamas has apologists claiming that its massacre was somehow heroic and justifiable. That so many people could be so morally stunted to believe such a thing only goes to show that yes, Original Sin is real and empirically verifiable.
I’ve always thought it was a huge mistake not to show the videos of the massacre on OCT 7 right after they were available because without pictures some of the media, students and other “peaceful protesters” got away with denial, denial, denial.
That said I am not going to watch the video. The horror has been described in detail by conservative radio. I keep wondering if the numbers on civilian casualties from the Gaza thugs are bogus.

Christians. The enemy of the Revolution to come?
The enemies of humanity?
-from the article;
***The goal is the communist revolution in all countries; what serves this goal is good and just.” If bringing about revolution is de facto just, then any action for that end is just. In this case, since the terrorists are attacking the settler-colonial-imperial-capitalist state, they are freedom fighters. Since the Kibbutz members do not want their homes burned and children murdered, they are enemies of revolution—enemies of humanity.***
