Video: Arab Group Reacts To Hamas Massacre Of Innocent Israeli’s After Film Screening – ‘Worse Than ISIS’

(DailyWire) A group of Arabs from the Middle East and North Africa were deeply disturbed after viewing 47-minutes of Hamas’s October 7 atrocities during a screening at the Israeli consulate in Boston, Massachusetts.

“I was shocked — I couldn’t breathe,” Fatema Al Harbi from Bahrain told The Daily Wire. “I cried most of it.”

 

The group is part of a delegation meeting with American leaders and advocating for peace under the organization Sharaka, which was founded after the Abraham Accords. Members of the delegation included individuals from Syria, Lebanon, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and Morocco.

While much of the footage has been circulated online, the compilation does not blur faces of dead or alive adults, and includes videos that have not been released publicly. The consulate did not allow video cameras or cell phones in the screening room.

“I thought I saw enough on social media,” said Al Harbi, who is also the Sharaka’s Gulf affairs director. “There were more horrific acts and barbaric acts towards civilians — people sleeping in their beds.”

In total, the video shows over 120 bodies including children, videos of beheadings, houses and people set on fire, unarmed people shot at point blank range and more.

“I thought the worst I’ve seen in my life is what ISIS has done in Iraq and Syria,” Rawan Osman who is Syrian and Lebanese said. “I have never imagined saying I’ve seen something worse.”

Osman, who has lived in Syria and Lebanon, said the glee that Hamas fighters had in the video while they executed and beheaded people made them worse than ISIS.

“They were so joyful and cheering over dead bodies and they were parading bodies without clothes,” Al Harbi, who is Muslim, said. “That’s not the Islam that I knew my whole life.”

Osman said  the hardest part of the video for her was a scene of a father appearing to jump on a grenade to save his children in a bomb shelter.

“I’m a mother and I could relate to the fear, the dread the father and the children were feeling,” she said. “The moment the boys realize that their father has been killed and the way the terrorists react to that, they’re just pushing them around, like move on.”

“I think his childhood ended that moment,” Osman said of one of the children that was heard wishing to be dead in the video after his father was killed.

The footage has left journalists and lawmakers in tears during other screenings. Nearly every person from the Boston group was crying while watching the footage. During the debrief one man had to leave and no one was making eye contact with each other.

“I couldn’t contain myself, I had to go out,” Youssef Elazhari from Morocco said. “I’ve seen most of the videos, but seeing them all together gets to you. I had to change the air and cry a bit.”

Elazhari said the section showing videos from the Nova music festival massacre was the hardest for him because he likes to attend similar events in Morocco.

“I know how happy people are at these types of events and how much they want to be with their community that is full of love,” he said. “But Hamas just wanted to kill them without even knowing who they are.

“In Morocco, Palestine is considered a noble cause but they don’t know who they are championing, they don’t know s***,” he said.

Elazhari added that he is not surprised by Israel’s response in invading Gaza.

“Hamas killed people and took hostages. That’s just telling the Israelis ‘come to my house and look for them,’” he said. “Hamas has no concept of failure: if you kill someone it’s glory, if you die, it’s also glory. There’s just no end.”

Osman said it’s frustrating when Hamas denies the atrocities.

“An Israeli was decapitated with a small knife and then his head was taken away,” she said recounting what she saw in the video. “I think that’s enough proof.”
