A report published on February 14 from Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center describes in detail direct communication and cooperation between Hamas and al-jazeerathe state information agency of Qatar. The report tells us that during the episode of the Al-Jazeera investigative program “What is hidden is Greater”, aired on January 25, the issuer attempted to present a narration of Hamas’s “victory” in Gaza after the The beginning of the current ceased the fire. The transmission focused on the terrorist attack and on the massacre made by Hamas on October 7, 2023, analyzing it from the point of view of the Izz al-Din al-Qaassam brigades, the arm armed with the organization. Up to now unpublished information on the preparations of the attack have been revealed, with declarations of commanders and operating agents of the brigades, as well as videos of Muhammed deifmilitary leader of Hamas, in the operating room. The program also showed images of Yahya Sinwar, head of the Hamas political office in the Gaza strip, while moving in the combat area in Rafah, before his killing in September 2024.
The program promoted Hamas’ narrative according to which the operation was one jihad Justified by Islam and that “the determination, heroism and sacrifice” of the Palestinian people had made possible the success of the Al-Aqsa Flood operation (the name of Hamas for the attack of 7 October). The transmission also promoted the idea that the Palestinians had recorded another historical chapter “refusing to surrender to oppression and aggression making enormous sacrifices for Islam, their homeland and the Al-Aqsa mosque”. The program also spread the outrageous, distorted and misleading reconstruction, falsely arguing that the goal of the attack and massacre was exclusively affecting military personnel and capturing as many as possible. A field commander of Brigate Izz al-Din al-Qassam He tried to justify attacks against Israeli civilians, women and the elderly, stating that “the forces of territorial defense made up of fighters in civil clothes participated in the fighting in the Kibbutz on the border with Gaza. According to this version, the directive was “to target these fighters, avoiding hitting children and elderly”. However, the program also claimed that Hamas agents would “risk their lives to respect this directive”. Who was in the studio? The main guest of the program was Izz Al-Din al-Haddad, member of the military council of the Hamas armed wing and commander of the Gaza brigade, one of the main responsible for planning and execution of the attack. During the interview he illustrated “the reasons” that they would have pushed Hamas to act, explaining why on 7 October he had been chosen as the date for the attack and the massacre. Izz al-Din al-Haddad He falsely accused Israel of treating Palestinian prisoners hard after the management of their detention was entrusted to the Minister of Security Itamar Ben Gvir. Without any proof, he said Israel would deliberately hungry for the prisoners, causing his death by medical negligence, and that he would imprison them for life in extreme conditions. To refute his falsehood, just look at the militants of Hamas and the Islamic jihad released by Israeli prisons: some with obvious overweight problems and all in good condition. As for the Islamic sacred places, he claimed that “all attempts to make an international pressure to stop the (presumed) employment attacks in Jerusalem and the mosque of Al-Aqsa They have always failed “, and that Israel” continued to attack, beat and abuse the faithful without anyone intervening “. During the preparations for the Mohammed deif attack, he was resumed while repeating unfounded accusations such as “Jews want to build a temple on the ruins of Al-Aqsacarried out Jewish rituals on the mountain and declared the destruction of the mosque to build a temple, while cursed the prophet inside the complex ». Regarding the Gaza Strip, it accused Israel of deliberately intensified the block “to bring the Palestinians to a slow death. We could not remain inactive or look from the sidelines ». Another sensational dance is that relating to the fact that “I had detected signals and information that indicated an imminent Israeli attack on Gaza immediately after the Jewish holidays”. According to Mohammed Deif, “Israel was preparing to launch a devastating war through a massive air attack on all factions of the resistance, followed by a large -scale terrestrial invasion”. He said that the Al-Aqsa Flood operation was “a preventive and surprising response against the systematic plan of the enemy with the aim of defending our holy places, our people and our resistance”. Finally, he also attributed the attack on the difficult economic situation in the Gaza and West Bank Strip, claiming that Hamas had warned Israel that the crisis could not continue. He accused Israel of trying to neutralize “resistance to Gaza through small economic improvements and limited measures”, with the aim of separating the Gazawa population from the struggle in the West Bank, Jerusalem and from that of the Palestinian prisoners.
Not happy the self -styled journalists of al-jazeera who are actually militants of Hamas In their program they also reiterated the conditions set by Hamas for the cessation of the war, including the total retreat of the Israeli defense forces from the Gaza Strip, the release of the Palestinian prisoners sentenced to life imprisonment, the revocation of the blockade and the reconstruction of the ‘enclave. It was also declared: “The leadership of employment, supported by the United States and the West, will have no choice but to give in to our legitimate requests, ending the attack and completely retreating from the Gaza Strip”. For Richard Goldberg, Senior Advisor of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, no more postponable initiatives must be taken on Al-Jazeera: «I don’t know how long the Treasury Department will still be able to avoid the elephant in the room, namely that Al-Jazeera has provided material support to a The designated terrorist organization and should probably be subject to the sanctioning authorities against terrorism at this point. Certainly, the congress could impose that a decision is made within a certain period of time, and the victims of October 7 can intend to civil cases for damages ».
