Let Israel finish the job

Published



The Israeli military discovered the recorded minutes of a high-level Hamas meeting, the Wall Street Journal reported, revealing the true motive for the Oct. 7 terrorist attacks. 

According to the document, Hamas leaders ordered the attacks in southern Israel and killed over 1,200 civilians to torpedo peace negotiations between Saudi Arabia and Israel. This confirmed what most analyses have suspected. Hamas’s Gaza chief, Yahya Sinwar, told fellow militants during the Oct. 2, 2023, meeting that an “extraordinary act” was needed to scuttle the talks that he believed marginalized the Palestinian cause and “open the door for the majority of Arab and Islamic countries to follow the same path” of normalizing relations with Israel.
