The evidence that Israel had been
correct all along about Hamas’s nefarious mode of operation began to pile up
soon after the IDF began its offensive.
For years Israel has said that Hamas conducts its ongoing campaign of
terrorism against Israel from within civilian sites in Gaza: homes, businesses,
schools, refugee facilities… and hospitals.
And it had always been dismissed by the international community as
paranoia or disinformation.
The horrific October 7 massacre by
Hamas that forced Israel to declare war against the terrorist government of
Gaza was launched with the declaration that Israel, once and for all, was going
to do something about it. The evidence
that Israel had been correct about Hamas began to pile up soon after the IDF
began its offensive.
Early last week, IDF Spokesman R.-Adm. Daniel Hagari revealed an underground Hamas command center under Gaza’s Rantisi Hospital that contained not only suicide vests, rocket-propelled grenades, and a variety of weapons, but also signs, such as baby bottles, that Hamas had held Israeli hostages there. He also noted that an IDF robot found additional terror tunnels, which were powered by electricity being siphoned off from the hospital for use by the terrorists underground.
That prompted US National Security Adviser
Jake Sullivan to tell CNN, “You can see even from open source reporting that
Hamas does use hospitals, along with a lot of other civilian facilities, for
command-and-control, for storing weapons, for housing its fighters. Without
getting into this specific hospital or that specific claim, this is Hamas’
track record, both historically and in this conflict.”
We saw the evidence ourselves. Later in the week, the IDF took control of
Shifa Hospital, long asserted to be the location of a Hamas headquarters. On
Wednesday, the IDF brought The Jerusalem Post and other selected media outlets
to view Hamas’s terror infrastructure, including its several-hundred-meter-long
tunnel network.
The Post’s Yonah Jeremy Bob reported
on his eyewitness visit that next to the Qatar facility within the Shifa
complex was a vast amount not only of Hamas guns and grenades – which the IDF
found hidden throughout the hospital – but also rocket-propelled grenade
launchers, large and small advanced drones for delivering explosives, and a
variety of sophisticated intelligence platforms.
The vastness of the tunnels
themselves, the variety of sophisticated rooms and the blast door the IDF had
displayed earlier last week, was testimony to how important this location was
to Hamas. Adding to that irrefutable
evidence that Shifa was being used as a terror base, the IDF last week also
released information and video footage showing that Hamas brought some of the
hostages it kidnapped in Israel to Shifa.
The footage shows Hamas terrorists inside the hospital on the morning of
October 7 forcibly transporting a Nepalese and a Thai civilian, both kidnapped
from Israeli territory.
On Thursday, the IDF said that Hamas “used the hospital as a refuge for its terrorist forces and even brought Israeli hostages there who were kidnapped during the day of slaughter. A pathology report confirmed that soldier Noa Marciano was murdered on the grounds of Shifa Hospital.” The IDF and the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) announced on Thursday that they had arrested Dr. Muhammad Abu Salamiyah, the director of Shifa.
According to a
statement, he was being interrogated by the Shin Bet after significant
testimony and video evidence that Shifa had been used as a command center for
Hamas during his tenure. There were
reports on Thursday that Hamas was demanding the IDF withdraw from Shifa as
part of the hostage deal this was rejected.
The longer Israel stays in Gaza, the more it is discovering about Hamas’s web of evil and its cynical use of civilians, especially the infirm, to provide a cover for their murderous actions. The world should be coming together to back Israel’s actions and encourage it to continue its efforts to uproot the terror that has held Gaza captive for close to two decades.
