Hamas Official Admits 10/7 Attacks Aimed to Derail Israeli-Arab Relations

In a chilling revelation, Hamas official Ghazi Hamad openly declared that the October 7 massacre was a strategic move to disrupt Israel’s growing diplomatic ties with Arab states. During a recent interview, Hamad boasted about the so-called success of the brutal attacks, which left 1,200 people dead, over 5,300 wounded, and hundreds more taken hostage.

Hamad, who has previously threatened more attacks of similar magnitude, stated that the massacre was a significant blow to the normalization efforts between Israel and its Arab neighbors. “It was able to slap at the progress of the normalization of effort, and this is, of course, a very important political success,” he claimed, emphasizing the broader geopolitical impact the attack has had on the region.

Key Points from Hamad’s Remarks:

• Hamad celebrated the October 7 attack for creating divisions within Israel and galvanizing other Islamic terrorist organizations to join the fight against the Jewish state.

• He asserted that Jews "must be finished," likening their actions to crimes worse than those of the Nazis, and called for a total boycott of Israel on all fronts—economically, culturally, and educationally.

• Hamad unequivocally rejected the idea of a two-state solution, stating that Palestinians will never recognize Israel and will continue to fight for what they consider their "historical" lands.

Hamad’s comments highlight the deep-seated hostility and extremist ideology that continues to drive Hamas, a designated terrorist organization by the United States, the European Union, and many other countries. His dismissal of any peaceful resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict underscores the challenges that lie ahead in achieving lasting peace in the region.

As tensions remain high, Hamad’s rhetoric serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing threat posed by Hamas and its unwavering commitment to the destruction of Israel.
