Source: Economic times

In a shocking turn of events, Hamas reportedly carried out public executions in Gaza on Monday, just hours after signing a historic Israel-Hamas Peace Deal brokered by U.S. President Donald Trump. The executions, captured in disturbing footage circulating online, have sparked international alarm and renewed concerns over the stability of the newly signed truce.

I find this very disturbing that they are beating an executing fellow Palestinians with no due process.

Extremely damaged people like the child molester-in-chief. If he could get away with public executions he'd do it. Plenty of his bootlickers call for public executions of Democrats.

They say Hamas must be extricated from the Palestinian population in Gaza—they’re terrorists. But Trump and Bibi leave Hamas in charge as the military police. And now civilians are being terrorized and murdered?

What kind of fucking idiot signs such as stupid “peace agreement”?

Hamas will refuse to disarm. Bibi wants to stay in office & out of jail and will use the excuse that Hamas refused to disarm & he'll renew the bombing & killing.

They left Hamas to wipe out the rest of the Palestinians to clear the way for them to take over and build on their land.

Hamas is a terrorist group that both BiBi and trump support. They must have gotten one sweet deal out of 'The Peace' deal.

Then again,

“They do want to stop the problems, and they’ve been open about it, and we gave them approval for a period of time,” Trump said. “You have close to 2 million people going back to buildings that have been demolished, and a lot of bad things can happen. So we want it to be — we want it to be safe. I think it’s going to be fine. Who knows for sure.”


Sounds like he thought better of them than they deserved. Have to be pretty foolish not to think of them as what they keep saying and showing themselves to be--zealots devoted to their Sacred Cause, eradication of most Jews (at least on 'holy land' and perhaps at least the reduction to sub-Jim-Crow status for those who remain) and the imposition of hardline Sunni-style shari'a law on groups that are subservient ... Non-pious Muslims, women, non-cis/non-chaste, non-Muslims. Of course, that's "intersectional" so some are more privileged that others and others more oppressed ... Mix in a hefty dose of Animal-Farm-like "we have more responsibility, so of course we get to live high on the hog." To use a bit of an inappropriate metaphor, but I'd note that often that kind of 'we deserve more' includes a fair serving of pious hypocrisy.

And yet, fools like Trump keep giving them the benefit of the doubt.

On the other hand, lawlessness would be a problem in that kind of situation (even as it is, a fair number of those starving were the vulnerable who had nobody to struggle on their behalf to get them what food there was, even as others could open food stands and profit from the aid).

For none are good.

From the article -- it looks like a mini-civil war, and not just the execution of a few people --

Deadly Reprisals Target Gaza’s Powerful Clans
Reports from Gaza indicate that the executions are part of a wider campaign by Hamas to eliminate opposition. On Sunday, at least 52 members of the influential Dagmoush clan were killed in clashes with Hamas security forces, while 12 Hamas fighters, including the son of senior official Bassem Naim, also died, according to a News 18 report.

Residents described the scene as “a massacre,” with some claiming Hamas fighters used ambulances to enter neighborhoods before opening fire. “They’re dragging people away, children are screaming and dying, they’re burning our houses,” one woman told Israeli outlet Ynet News.

The Dagmoush clan, long viewed as a semi-autonomous power in Gaza, had reportedly grown in strength during the war, creating tensions with Hamas’ leadership.

. . .
[Trump:] “They want to stop the problems, and we’ve given them approval for a short period to handle internal matters as they see fit,” Trump said, as quoted in a report by New York Post. “You have close to 2 million people returning to destroyed homes. We want safety and stability, and I think it’s going to work out.”

STOP how many of you have proof that this is "Hamas"? How many of you have the date perfect and can vow to the correctness of the murders? Let's let the professionals look at the "facts" and let us know what they sumerise about the people with the guns and the date this happened. After I feel the right people have looked at this the I might agree with you for now I will wait, look & listen. We all know the kirk murder didn't happen as they tried to tell you it did just to see the people in the know shoot holes (pun not intended) in the republican story of what happened. Don't forget netanyahu doesn't want peace because, before he started the slaughter of peaceful people. netanyahu and his wife were about to be charged with stealling and misusing the governments money. If the "war" ends the eyes are back on netanyahu and his wifes prosecution.

It's unfortunate that Netanyahu tends to use horrors like this to justify his years-long campaign of deliberate civilian murder.
