British state broadcaster the BBC interviewed a Hamas spokesman who, when challenged on “killing people as they sleep”, terminated the discussion.as a “senior Hamas official” was interviewed by the BBC in Beirut where he lives on Thursday, but threw his microphone on the ground and walked out after the conversation turned to the massacre of civilians by his organisation in October’s terrorist attack.
At first, Hamad stuck to Hamas talking points and told the BBC that the “military operation” was “directed” against “military soldiers who imposed sanctions and collective punishment on our people”. He also said he could “confirm and assure again and again” that there was “no command. No command to kill any civilians”.
He told the broadcaster, appearing to imply any civilian deaths were accidental, that: “because that area is very wide, there are many people there, there were clashes and confrontations… I don’t have details happened inside. But I can tell you that we didn’t have any intention or decision to kill the civilians.”, killing some 1,400 people in Israel earlier this month. When challenged by the BBC interviewer, who asked “how do you justify killing people as they sleep.
Nearly three weeks after the Hamas surprise terrorist attack, Israel appears to be continuing to prepare for a ground invasion of Gaza. A prelude to such action appears to have taken place, with a column of forces pressing forwards to attack anti-tank defences as an apparently prelude to a larger, later strike.
