@EmmanuelMacron
From the president of a country, one expects a professional staff to fact-check a speech before it is delivered to the world.
It is one thing to blurt out a foolish line and get caught on camera. It is another thing entirely to stand before the world and recite a falsehood that even a free AI chatbot would have refused to write.
France, God willing, is heading for change. Until then, here is the record of Hamas in Judea and Samaria.
🚨 Since 1990, Hamas has carried out more than 80 lethal terrorist attacks originating in or directed from Judea and Samaria, murdering more than 350 Israeli civilians.‼️
The five examples below are not the full list. They are only the most familiar cases.
🚨 1994–1997: Hamas suicide bombers from Judea and Samaria strike Afula, Hadera, Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. More than 80 civilians murdered.
🚨 2001–2003: Dolphinarium, Sbarro and the Park Hotel massacre, directed from Nablus: 66 civilians. Add Cafe Moment, Matza, Pat Junction, Jerusalem Bus 2, Beersheba and the other Hamas bombings launched from Judea and Samaria in those years: more than 250 civilians murdered in this wave alone.
🚨 2014: A Hamas cell from Hebron kidnaps and murders Eyal Yifrach, Gilad Shaar and Naftali Fraenkel. 3 civilians murdered.
🚨 2015: Hamas cells from Judea and Samaria murder Eitam and Naama Henkin, and Malachi Rosenfeld. 3 civilians murdered.
🚨 2023: The Shin Bet ties Hamas’s Judea and Samaria headquarters to a series of deadly attacks, including Eli and Huwara. At least 8 Israelis were murdered.
This is a conservative undercount. It counts civilians only and excludes members of the security forces. It also excludes attacks by Fatah’s Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and Hamas operations originating in Gaza or abroad.
Honte à vous, Emmanuel. Honte à vous.
