This narrow way

For all the useful idiots on college campuses across America, for every “protestor” in the streets of every major city around the world waving Palestinian flags and chanting “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” for Hamas sympathizers and collaborators who roam the halls of the United States Congress, for anyone and everyone whose rabid hatred of the Jewish people causes them to refer to those who carried out the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust as “freedom fighters,” this should be required reading. Maybe if there’s any iota humanity left in you, any speck of decency still remaining in your darkened, evil hearts, you’ll reconsider.

 Journalist Sabrina Maddeaux, who writes for The National Post of Canada, was one of a small group invited to attend a screening by the Consulate of Israel in Toronto of footage from the October 7 attacks by Hamas on villages in Israel. The footage was taken from various sources, including some which was livestreamed by the Hamas butchers themselves. The following is her account. Fair warning, brace yourselves.

“There were babies. Toddlers. So many children of all ages. Young men and women dressed for a music festival, not the wanton slaughter that saw their bloodied bodies piled atop one another in scenes reminiscent of some of the Holocaust’s worst images.

Parents. The elderly. A dad who, attempting to hide from Hamas attackers with his sons, all three of them still in their underwear, was blown up by a grenade in front of his children. The two young boys, covered in blood, crying, throwing themselves on the ground in grief, as a Hamas gunman raids the family’s fridge and takes a swig of soda. One of the sons’ panicked voice as he realizes he can no longer see out of one eye.

… The literal streams of blood, the hacked off arms and legs, the infant missing part of its skull, brain leaking out. The dog shot over and over again as its limbs splay in every direction until they don’t anymore. Mickey Mouse pajamas on a young corpse, skull fragments on floors, victims shot point blank. So much blood.

I’ll never forget the gore, but it’s the look of euphoria and pride in the terrorists’ eyes, cheering for the cameras as if they were the ones partying at a music festival that day, that will haunt me.

In the videos, Hamas attackers did not behave as soldiers or freedom fighters. They hunted their victims in their homes like serial killers in a horror film, peering through blinds, slashing through screen doors with knives, following families wherever they tried to run or hide. If they couldn’t find them, they’d use lighters to make sure fire did. They toyed with their victims’ lifeless bodies. They kept trophies, both physical and digital.

It’s unimaginable that anyone could watch this and still equate what happened on Oct. 7 to resistance or war. I’ve seen war footage; this was not that. These were terrorist attacks targeted at civilians and mass shootings of innocents. Hamas was indiscriminate in their cruelty, killing not for cause, but for pleasure.

I don’t know if the full footage will ever be made public, but if it ever is, every single Canadian should watch it to understand how far beyond any conceivable rules of engagement Hamas went, why this time was different, and why it must never, ever happen again.”

These are the people you support and defend? May God have mercy on your soul.
