Hamas tallies attacks against Israel in TV clip

Brief video segment aired on al-Aqsa TV enumerates types of attacks on Israeli soldiers, civilians, says attacks ‘will never stop’

Hamas recently broadcast a brief video clip on its al-Aqsa TV station celebrating the varied and numerous attacks the Palestinian terrorist group has carried out against Israeli military personnel and civilians.

Set to dramatic music, the clip which aired on November 19 and was translated by MEMRI shows a masked Palestinian assassin performing dramatized renditions of the gamut of attacks employed by Hamas against Israel. In each scene, the video tabulates the number of each type of attack the Islamist terrorist group has taken credit for.




The first scene shows the khaffiyeh-clad assassin sneak up on, charge and stab an almost comical, stereotypical depiction of an ultra-Orthodox Jew. The victim’s traditional sidelocks appear to be plaited pigtails. In the video, Hamas claims to have carried out 38 stabbing attacks.

The same attacker is then shown ambushing and gunning down two IDF soldiers with what appears to be Sten gun-style submachine gun straight out of a C-list movie props department. Just before the shooter snatches one of the downed soldiers’ M-16 and makes off in a getaway car, the film informs viewers that Hamas has carried out 487 shooting attacks against Israelis.
