Part four of essay entitled “This is Gaza, A War of Existence, Not A War of Borders”:

“Taking [people] as prisoners was not and will not be a deterrent weapon. The Jews destroyed everything, knowing that the Muslims would not cause any harm to the prisoners because Islam urges them not to. However, Islam also tells us that killing takes precedence over taking prisoners.”“Assessing Hamas's October 7 Attack, Al-Qaeda Essay By Sayf Al-'Adl: Killing Civilians More Beneficial Than Taking Them As Prisoners,” Middle East Media Research Institute, July 17, 2024, https://www.memri.org/reports/assessing-hamass-october-7-attack-al-qaeda-essay-sayf-al-adl-killing-civilians-more.

Fact:

On October 7, 2023, Hamas invaded southern Israel where, in the space of eight hours, hundreds of armed terrorists perpetrated mass crimes of brutality, rape, and torture against men, women and children. In the biggest attack on Jewish life in a single day since the Holocaust, 1,200 were killed, and 251 were taken hostage into Gaza—where 101 remain. One year on, antisemitic incidents have increased by record numbers.
