THE RESPONSIBILITY OF HAMAS

On October 7 of last year, the “Al Qasam” brigades dependent on Hamas committed a massacre in Israeli territory, killing some 1,200 Jewish civilians and taking another 250 hostages to Gaza.

How to qualify that attack? There is only one word: it was a terrorist act that lacked the slightest justification. The desperation of the Palestinian people, particularly the youth, for not seeing the existence of a free and independent Palestine is understandable. It is also understandable that Israel's violence in the West Bank and Gaza is responded to with violence, in legitimate defense.

But on October 7, Hamas committed a terrorist act that it should never have carried out. Hamas knew that Israel would respond to the massacre with far greater violence. The Gaza war began, and Netanyahu's government charged its invading forces with three main objectives: eliminate every last man of "Al Qasam" and the political leadership of Hamas; turn Gaza into a field of ruins and free the hostages.

To date, more than 37,000 Palestinian civilians have died in the bombings on Gaza. The destruction of the Palestinian enclave is more than 40 percent, and as for the hostages, a first exchange of a few of them was reached through the Red Cross. Negotiations on a second humanitarian pause that could lead to a ceasefire remain blocked.

After committing a terrorist massacre, Hamas would have to make an act of contrition and support a new peace agreement. The American president, Joe Biden, is the author of the latest initiative: Ceasefire; release of the hostages and partial withdrawal of the Jewish troops. Netanyahu wants to continue the war and Hamas wants to modify Biden's plan, which is another mistake.

Hamas must support that plan and leave Israel more isolated than ever internationally. He doesn't and the war and savage bombings continue.

Hamas bears full responsibility for the massacre of October 7, and for the beginning of the war. It is an undeniable fact. He committed a despicable act; and although the president, Recip Erdogan, calls its members “freedom fighters,” the group's moral obligation is immense.

Israel's response has resulted in a large number of war crimes that have led to genocide. True, but Hamas's responsibility cannot be set aside or forgotten.

                         لماذا نحن هنا؟ Information is an important element in the world we live in. Fake news leads us to believe the opposite of reality. In a Middle Eastern region where the bloody war in Gaza continues, it is important to report the truth; the genocide and Israeli crimes against the Palestinian people, as well as the situation in Syria. This is what we do at ARABINFOCUS. We have therefore humbly asked for donations from members of the HH Arab Royal Houses; from His Highnesses Emirs and from important Muslim personalities who have the financial means to make a donation. We have asked them for a simple donation. Only one anonymous Saudi helped us. All the others have ignored us and have not given us even  a dinar.  Why this ignorance against ARABINFOCUS? Our fight against Jewish Zionism deserved help. But a HH Crown Prince; HH sheikhs; HH emirs;  Prime ministers; all have scorned us, instea...

          IS FOOTBALL MORE IMPORTANT THAN ARABIC CULTURE? Qatar and Saudi Arabia have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in hiring top-class soccer players in Europe to elevate and give greater prestige to their national championships in this sport. Football is a global distraction and, therefore, there is nothing to criticize about these operations. It is absolutely normal and correct that the two Arab countries have made that expense. But this situation moves us to ask some questions: 1.- Soccer is more important than the values of the culture of the Arab Nation. ? 2.-Is Soccer more important than reporting and condemning Israel's criminal aggressions against the Palestinian people? 3.-Is Soccer more important than defending Islam and its values and teachings, when it is being subjected to unfair attacks from some Western countries? 4.- Is Soccer more important than explaining and defending the values of the holy book of the Quran, subject of attacks, de...

                ONE HUNDRED KILLED IN THE ATTACK ON A SCHOOL IN GAZA Genocide and war crimes continue in Gaza, although Prime Minister Netanyahu says he is willing to resume peace negotiations. In the attack on a school this Friday, 100 Palestinians died, some of whom are women and children. Israel justified the missile attack, stating that the school served as a refuge for Hamas militants, but has not presented the slightest evidence to justify the version of the Jewish armed forces. It's the same old story. Every time Israel attacks a school, a hospital or a refugee camp, it justifies it by claiming that those places were used by the military branch of Hamas. But don't look for proof because there isn't any. The school attacked with missiles was Al-Tabin, in the Daraj area, in the capital of the Palestinian enclave. The school was completely destroyed. Meanwhile, the Palestinian and Lebanese populations continue to wait for the announced attack ...
