A new video released by the ISIS affiliate in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula amounts to a declaration of war against the Hamas movement in the neighboring Gaza Strip, condemning the Palestinian group as “apostates.”
In the video, an ISIS preacher calls for viewers to attack Hamas sites and courthouses in the Gaza Strip, saying they are “pillars of tyranny.” The video closes with the execution of an ISIS member identified as Musa Abu Zamat, who they accused of smuggling weapons to Hamas’ military wing.
The video attacked Hamas for numerous reasons, including its support for democratic values, and its stated position that they are not hostile with Jews for religious reasons, but at odds with Israel over occupied Palestinian land.
Hamas dismissed the video as a “Zionist production” aimed at distorting the resistance against Israel. Hamas has regularly fought with ISIS-linked factions within the Gaza Strip, though such groups are a lot smaller than the Sinai version.
So…they won’t fight the zionazis, they declared war on HAMAS which resists the zionazis, the zionazis claim they prefer them to Assad, they apologised when they accidentally fired on the zionazis, they’re on the border on the other side of which are the zionazis but the zionazis don’t do anything to them… I’m sure this is all a coincidence. Right?
quite interesting, I hadn’t heard of the apology before. So the friend of our ally is…. our official enemy.
Hamas dismissed the video as a “Zionist production” .
Yep. Hard to disagree with that.The ‘ISIS’ videos have all been fake. Even the screen shot above looks ridiculous.
Rita Katz’s production values are third rate.
LOLz. The tripod tells you all you need to know. Scene looks like an animation from a video game.
Executing someone always brings credibility to the video evidently. It is hard to imaging a group more devoted to resisting Israel than Hamas they have been around for decades while ISIS is a new comer.
ISISrael.
Who is this long haired hipster looking dude? Do they have any effing clue what culture they’re supposed to be imitating anymore?
Sinai is not that large geographically. You would think satellites, overflight and occupation of every oasis and village is feasible.
Wake up Hamas, ISIS itself is a “Zionist production”. Know your enemy.
