Disturbing: We Know Where Hamas Terrorists Received Combat Training
Iran’s Quds Force, the foreign operations branch of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, provided specialized combat training to Hamas terrorists before their attack on Israel, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Over 500 terrorists from Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group participated in the training, overseen by Quds Force officers.
The attack by Hamas resulted in the brutal killing and kidnapping of Israeli citizens, and Hamas terrorists were found carrying documents on making chemical weapons.
“We are dealing with ISIS, al Qaeda and Hamas,” Israeli President Isaac Herzog told Sky News.
“Before the war, Iran directly assisted Hamas with money, training and weapons and technological know-how,” said Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, the Israeli Defense Forces chief spokesman, according to the WSJ.
“Even now, Iran is helping Hamas with intelligence.”
Israeli officials claim that Iran directly assisted the attack and continues to provide intelligence support to Hamas.
While senior U.S. officials dispute Iran’s direct involvement, Republicans have condemned Iran and criticized President Biden’s unfreezing of funds for Israel’s enemies.
Iran denies its role in the attack but has shown friendly interactions with Hamas leaders.
“Iran is behind this,” said Senator Joni Ernst, who served in the U.S. military for 23 years.
“They fund 93% of Hamas’ activities; they fund 100% of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s activities; not to mention Hezbollah and the Houthis. This all goes right back to Iran.”
“But you know what, who else is involved in this?” she asked. “President Biden has been so actively appeasing Iran instead of standing up to them, and I’m telling you, if we lose more Americans, we need to go after Iran. It is incredibly important that we push back against them. We need to be interdicting their oil just as our sanctions call for, we need to refreeze that $6 billion.”
