Not a science-fiction film of a dystopian future where children have taken over the world and now rule the adults like abusive dictators -- no, it's just another day on Hamas television. It's sick. It's always sick.
You've seen this act before, but the video must always be seen to be believed.
Boy: "My beloved brothers, as you know, today the Al-Aqsa Mosque is crying out: 'Where are the people of the frontline, the Palestinian people?' Yes, my dear brothers, that is the Al-Aqsa Mosque. The subject of our lesson today is Jerusalem, to where your Prophet made his nocturnal journey – the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
"Yes, my beloved brothers, as you know today, and as you knew yesterday and the day before, the Al-Aqsa Mosque has fallen into oppressing and malicious hands, the hands of those who know nothing but injustice. But let me tell you how the Al-Aqsa Mosque will be returned, how we shall rescue it from the shackles of the occupation, from the shackles of the Zionist entity.
"Will it be through conferences? No, not through conferences, but by means of force, because the Zionist entity, your enemy, the enemy of Allah, the enemy of Islam, knows nothing but injustice and the killing of Palestinians, the persevering people on the frontline. Indeed, the [mosque] will be returned only by means of force.
"In 1917, the Balfour Declaration was issued. Balfour decided on the cleansing of the Al-Aqsa Mosque. But look what the Zionist enemy has done, look what Israel and America have done. Look what the allies of Israel and America have done. They have dug tunnels underneath the Al-Aqsa Mosque, but the sheikhs and mujahideen of the Al-Aqsa Mosque have exposed these tunnels and called upon the Palestinian people: 'Look what has happened, look what has happened.'
"These calls have gone unheeded, my beloved brothers. But is it too late? No, it is not too late. If we all unite, the Al-Aqsa Mosque will not remain in the hands of the Zionist enemy, it will not remain in the hands of your enemy, despite all their conspiracies against the Palestinian people."

Girl: "To Al-Aqsa, to Al-Aqsa – we shall unite our ranks. We will wipe out the people of Zion, and will not leave a single one of them."

There's a remarkable discussion going on back in this thread over a single Hebrew word and whether an Israeli functionary implied that Israeli troops were going to perform a genocide. Native Hebrew speakers and a professional translator are having no... Read More
This video is really chilling.
Maybe during the next peace conference, or in a display at the UN or in a museum, there should be multiple screens set up, each featuring precious clips like this one. There should be a documentary about them, even if it's only going to be on Fox News.
This reminds me of a tv news report I saw many years ago in which the reporter made sure to point out that a game being played at a pinball place by some Israeli youths featured Israeli soldiers vs. Arabs. That is to say, it was "racist," although he didn't say the word outright. I wonder what that reporter would say today after viewing clips like this one. And I wonder what he would say when presented with full comprehensive evidence showing Israeli political culture and that of the Arabs, and not just the Arabs ruled by Hamas.
The Racist, Genocidal, Death-Cult of so-called "paleSWINE" is a "peace partner"???
If you believe that, I have a nice bridge in Brooklyn that can be all yours after you sign some papers.
