The idea was, as always, to “strike terror in the enemies of Allah.” (Qur’an 8:60)
“‘Top secret’ Hamas documents show that terrorists intentionally targeted elementary schools and a youth center,” by Anna Schecter, NBC News, October 13, 2023:
Documents exclusively obtained by NBC News show that Hamas created detailed plans to target elementary schools and a youth center in the Israeli kibbutz of Kfar Sa’ad, to “kill as many people as possible,” seize hostages and quickly move them into the Gaza Strip.
The attack plans, which are labeled “top secret” in Arabic, appear to be orders for two highly trained Hamas units to surround and infiltrate villages and target places where civilians, including children, gather. Israeli authorities are still determining the death toll in Kfar Sa’ad.
The documents were found on the bodies of Hamas terrorists by Israeli first responders and shared with NBC News. They include detailed maps and show that Hamas intended to kill or take hostage civilians and school children.
One page labeled “Top Secret” outlines a plan of attack for Kfar Sa’ad, saying “Combat unit 1” is directed to “contain the new Da’at school,” while “Combat unit 2” is to “collect hostages,” “search the Bnei Akiva youth center” and “search the old Da’at school.”
Another page labeled “Top Secret Maneuver” describes a plan for a Hamas unit to secure the east side of Kfar Sa’ad while a second unit controls the west. It says “kills as many as possible” and “capture hostages.” Other orders include surrounding a dining hall and holding hostages in it.
The detailed plan to attack Kfar Sa’ad is part of a trove of documents that Israeli officials are analyzing, according to one source in the Israeli army and one in the government. Surveillance video of Hamas terrorists entering a kibbutz on Oct. 7 shows tactics similar to those laid out in the documents obtained by NBC News.
The Israeli officials said that the wider group of documents show that Hamas had been systematically gathering intelligence on each kibbutz bordering Gaza and creating specific plans of attack for each village that included the intentional targeting of women and children….

It could be that they knew so much about the “new school” and the “old school” and who would be where, because so many “palestinians” had been regularly going into Israel to *work*…having been given permission by the Israeli government to travel to jobs.
These documents show just how evil islam is…and the evil minds of the psychopaths who follow it with zeal and lust to rape, torture and murder.
All who defend and praise these ghouls, are themselves ghouls.
Rep Greene has forced a vote of censure of tlaib….who says she ‘won’t be dehumanized’….she did that to herself….nor ‘be silenced.”
tlaib, bush, elmi, aoc and all of the others defending hamas, and praising it, or defending and praising those who defend and praise directly, have shown their true heart.
And their hearts, along with hamas, hezbollah, iranian mullahs, clerics, etc. are evil.

Very soft targets. Same thing will happen in the US with all the Muslim terrorists Biden has let in.

I recall the mozlum who took over a school bus full of kids…reported here on JW some time in the past.
And in Russia, the school that the mozlum terrorists invaded and held the kids hostage.(Belsan) where hundreds died.
And in iran this year, all of the young school girls poisoned….
It’s a much-used tactic.

It’s obvious that the muslims delight in murdering children, but why would they target a school on the Sabbath? They’re closed, unless maybe there were children on the playgrounds.

Wait until God almighty not only strikes terror on Allah and his evil followers but destroys their evil souls.

I doubt very much that these hamas people are humans at all.

Exactly. I have no doubt that that was and is the case; besides, of course, the fact that these days huge amounts of incidental information about schools, homes and the like, are available via things like google street-view and people’s social media postings.

Some years ago, when the “social media” began to be so fashionable and trendy, I kept thinking about people putting pics of the kids online and that it is a bad idea.
Many write about the weather, what things are going on nearby or ‘in town’ or other things that make it possible to find out where the cute little kids live.
And you are right; through things being put online, and the social media where people put just about everything regarding their lives, anyone can find whatever they wish.
Google puts out photos from streetview….one can see their own home and those seeking to victimize others, can see it too.

Here is my suggestion. Flood the tunnels with low levels of laughing gas, simply to relax the ‘militants’ and their kidnapees. Not enough to be toxic, but enough to reduce their judgment. Everyone will be smiling and happy. No one will be really able to come out without being somewhat introxicated. The militants will stay down there, and everyone will end up taking nice naps, and be less aggressive. Sort of a kumbaya. Do this for a few days to a week, and let’s see what happens. The gas should be pumped in under pressure at all known entrances. It’s worth an effort of a few days. And maybe keeo announcing in a non threatening voice that there is laughing gas that everyone is breathing and will continue to breath. Non lethal gas, low levels But continuing until the militants release the prisoners. No fighting. Just laughing gas, kumbayah.

Islam and its followers are just evil. Anyone who supports this islamic ideology is as much a terrorist as those who preform the acts of terror themselves. Calling Islam a religion is the first major mistake of the western nations. Islam is a cruel hateful ideology used for political and financial gain of the cult leaders. Nothing more than a power trip using human lives as a tool.

Islam is a Borg sex cult. Resistance is futile. Submit and become part of the collective worshiping Allah or die.
Walter Sieruk says
Some naïve Westerners who don’t know and understand about the bloody and deadly essence of Islam’s jihad , might be shocked and stop and wonder “Just how can those jihadists of Hamas be so totally unconscionably evil in their horrendously horrific scheming ,as to intentionally target elementary schools and a youth center ?”
The answer to that question is found in the Bible, which informs its reader that there are some men who are completely callous heartless and unfeeling because they have had “their conscience seared with a hot iron.” First Timothy 4:2. [K.J.V.]
In this situation, that “hot iron” is Islam.

marc says
quite common school facilities would be used on the Sabbath for children’s activities, they were when I was on Kibbutz
