The entire Jewish nation is celebrating the return of a Muslim hostage, some apartheid!

Rescued Israeli Muslim Arab, Qaid Farhan, says Hamas shot him because he refused to tell them where the Jews were. He was taken hostage and rendered disabled. True Israeli hero.

[deborahdeshoftim5779]

AMAZING NEWS: Qaid Farhan Alkadi, an Israeli kidnapped by Palestinians on October 7, was rescued from an underground tunnel and is now in a stable condition in hospital.

Some comments on this:

1- First of all, the IDF once again deserves ENORMOUS praise and credit for this achievement. These men on the front lines are absolute heroes, fighting some of the worst fascist criminals on the planet. Over 700 have died fighting Hamas, many of them barely out of their teens or barely into their twenties. They could have carried on their lives as usual, but they chose to go into the mouth of the dragon to fight pure evil and to bring back Israel's hostages. GOD BLESS THEM ALL.

2- Second of all, this rescue occurred at the time that the hostage negotations are said to have broken down. Yet another hostage rescue proves those negotations either have a limited value or, as I suspect, are almost entirely useless. None of us will forget Israel's astonishing rescue of four hostages in the al-Nuseirat neighbourhood in June, a complex operation requiring months of preparation. In this case, the IDF said they did not have precise info on Alkadi's whereabouts. Shortly before this, the IDF had located the bodies of six hostages, also in a tunnel.

3- Hamas' murder of hostages both on and since October 7 shows that the terrorist group is not serious about negotiating. And of course, as many in the West would conveniently like to forget, Palestinian captors are beating, starving, and raping Israel's hostages on a regular, if not daily, basis. Rescued hostages have testified to being held in cuffs and treated as slaves. Hamas and its Palestinian supporters know full well that abuse of the hostages will only prolong this war, yet they continue doing it. Alkadi being in hospital to recuperate from being held in a tunnel only demonstrates the savagery and the inhumanity of Palestinian terrorists, and the total lack of ethics of many Palestinian civilians. That leads me onto point number 4.

4- Alkadi was held hostage for 326 days, and not a single Palestinian helped him escape, nor alerted the IDF to his whereabouts. The same can be said for all other hostages held by the Palestinians. For ten months, Palestinians have kept silent as Israel's hostages have been subjected to near-constant assaults and violations, including repeated rapes. For ten months, Palestinians have not assisted with the rescue of a single hostage; instead, their response to hostage rescues has been complaint, rather than celebration-- even though hostage rescue makes the end of the war more likely. Most importantly, for ten months, not a single Palestinian lawyer or judge in Gaza or the West Bank has prosecuted Palestinian murderers, rapists, kidnappers, and other deviants who attacked Israel on October 7. The total moral failure of Palestinian society is exposed each time Israel either rescues a hostage, or sadly has to recover the body of a murdered hostage.

5- The rescue of Alkadi and other Israeli hostages shows the success of Israel's war in Gaza, the need to remove Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad from power, and the need to ensure that the Palestinian terrorist network, including tunnels, are permanently destroyed. Those who have been pressuring Israel into a quick exit have been proven wrong yet again. Over 100 hostages remain in Gaza, and since the Palestinian terrorists and Palestinian civilians have no intention of rescuing them, let alone returning them to Israel, the war is necessary to bring them back.

6- When you next hear Western pro-Palestinian activists, or Western journalists, or others insisting that "Hamas isn't there", you'll know it's a lie. After all the noise made about the "danger" of IDF operations in Gazan cities, we discover the truth yet again: that Hamas has militarised almost the entire Gaza Strip, that civilian buildings have been turned into military bases, that Hamas' terror tunnels are used for keeping hostages, that those terror tunnels are accessed via secret openings and via buildings, and that numerous Palestinians assist with the daily terrorist operations and cover-up. Anyone at this point continuing to peddle the myth of total Palestinian innocence and Hamas' mysterious disappearances every time there is an IDF operation is determined to make themselves a fool.

I send my good wishes to Mr. Alkadi and his family, and I send the IDF my full support in rescuing all of Israel's remaining hostages.

BRING THEM ALL HOME!

Israeli Bedouin Arab Qaid Farhan al-Qadi was rescued by the Israel Defense Forces from a Hamas tunnel in the southern Gaza Strip on Tuesday. He was taken hostage by Hamas on October 7 and held in captivity since. In the face of this miraculous news, however, the mainstream media were quick to turn the event in relation to al-Qadi’s identity as a Bedouin, into a political narrative.

It’s a political narrative with distorted information about the Bedouin community in Israel as well as impossible-to-make assumptions about Hamas.

Here are some of the ones that HonestReporting caught this week.

Hamas “targets” everyone in their path, and this was proven on October 7

On October 7, Bedouins and other people of minority groups in Israel’s south on that day suffered at the hands of Hamas terrorists and its followers. This is evidence that even when Hamas send rockets from Gaza, they have no “specific” intent to avoid Muslims, Christians, Buddhists or any other people inside Israel.

The point is, despite the fact that al-Qadi is a devout Muslim himself, he was still brutally taken hostage by Hamas on October 7 and kept as a hostage in horrific conditions for 11 months in Gaza. He was one of five other Muslims taken hostage on that day, and two are still in captivity. There is also one additional Israeli Bedouin civilian, Hisham al-Sayed, who has been infamously held hostage by Hamas for a decade. 

Despite the families’ pleas for Hamas to send them home in good faith as fellow Muslims, the response was silence.

The New York Times trying to convince readers or make assumptions about “specific” targets of Hamas otherwise is an unethical conviction.

[newnitz]

Specifically, it was an assassination attempt at the concept of coexistence.

The fact that more leftists died is no coincidence. The fact that a peace activist was the first one to be shown evidence of being raped as she was taken hostage is no coincidence.

And now with this final piece of the puzzle, that Muslims who refused to lead Hamas to Jews suffered their fates, the picture is even clearer.

Hamas wanted to kill the peace within Israel proper, between Arabs and Jews, to strangle any hope of a moderate solution. This man refused to let them, even under the extreme duress. I don't blame any Arab who, with a gun to his head and terrorists peeling off his fingers, gave in. "Betrayal" under duress is no betrayal, it's not fair to expect people to accept torture for the sake of another community. I blame the people who were supposed to keep these terrorists outside our territory and failed, and the world that funds and supports these evil people. It makes Qaid Farhan and every non-Jew who was kidnapped or died rather than letting them kill Jews even more of a hero.

Qaid Farhan has spoken about why he was taken hostage. He is a Bedouin Muslim Israeli.

He was not taken hostage because he is Israeli. He was taken hostage because he refused to tell Hamas where jews were. He was taken hostage because he was trying to prevent jewish death.

This is just more proof of what we have been saying for months. Oct 7th was not Palestinian resistance, it was a targeted attack meant to kill jews and anyone who tried to prevent jews from being killed was just collateral to them.

Alkadi, 52, was kidnapped from Magen on October 7.

The IDF on Tuesday rescued hostage Qaid Farhan Alkadi who had been held by Hamas since October 7.

Alkadi was rescued from a tunnel in Khan Yunis. The operation was led by Division 162 along with the Shayetet 13 naval commandos.

Fourth successful operation

Alkadi, 52, was kidnapped from kibbutz Magen where he worked on October 7.

It is the fourth successful operation to rescue live Israeli hostages from Hamas, though there have been several successful operations finding and returning some dozens of bodies of hostages killed by Hamas.

The IDF and Shin Bet successfully rescued Qaid Farhan Alkadi, an Israeli Bedouin, from H@mas held in R@fah.

Alkadi is the first live host@ge to be rescued from a tunnel!

Alkadi, age 52, was taken from Magen on October 7.

Today, people risked their lives to bring him back.

This complex operation was executed by Division 162, Brigade 401, Yahalom anti-tunnel forces, and Shayetet 13 naval commandos.

It’s important to note that those taken on October 7 weren’t just Jewish; they included Christians, Muslims, Bedouin, and Druze—showing that all Israelis have been affected.

Welcome home! 💙🤍

[justinspoliticalcorner]

Peter Beaumont at The Guardian:

A member of Israel’s Bedouin minority who was kidnapped by Hamas on 7 October last year has been reunited with his family amid conflicting accounts about his rescue from Gaza. The Israeli military said on Tuesday that it had rescued Qaid Farhan Alkadi, 52, who was abducted in the Hamas attack while he had been working as a security guard at a packing factory on a kibbutz. The Israel Defense Forces said that Alkadi was rescued from a tunnel “in a complex operation in the southern Gaza Strip”, without providing further details. Later reports in some Israeli media, however, suggested that Alkadi may have initially escaped from the tunnel where he was being held and made his own way to where Israeli forces were operating in Gaza. Hamas claimed it had “released” him.

The operation was hailed by Israeli leaders, desperate for good news almost a year into a grinding campaign that has seen pressure mounting on the government to do more to bring over 100 hostages back home.

Alkadi is only the eighth hostage the Israeli military claims to have rescued during months of operations in Gaza, including during two operations that killed scores of Palestinians. Hamas has said several hostages have been killed in Israeli airstrikes and failed rescue attempts, while Israeli troops mistakenly killed three Israelis who escaped captivity in December. Israel’s Channel 12 showed Alkadi’s family sprinting through the hospital where he was brought after they received the news. Alkadi’s brother Hatem said they had seen him disembark from a helicopter and walk to the ambulance that took him to a nearby hospital for medical checks. Israeli media ran a photo of Alkadi appearing gaunt, but smiling with his family.

hunting Jews: the truth about Hamas

SEPTEMBER 15, 2024

Islam is a religion.

Islamism is a political ideology.

Recently rescued Israeli hostage, Qaid Farhan Alkadi, an Israeli Bedouin Muslim, gave the following testimony:

Farhan’s testimony, along with a plethora of other evidence, only makes what we’ve been saying all along abundantly clear: Hamas is not a “resistance” group against oppression. Hamas is a genocidal antisemitic terrorist group that targets Jews.

ISLAMISM IS AN INHERENTLY ANTISEMITIC IDEOLOGY

Hamas is an Islamist terrorist group. What does this mean? 

Islamists believe that the doctrines of Islam should be congruent with those of the state. Islamists work to implement nation-states governed under Islamic Law (Sharia), emphasize pan-Islamic unity (in most cases, hoping for an eventual worldwide Islamic Caliphate, or empire), support the creation of Islamic theocracies, and reject all non-Muslim influences. For this reason, Islamists tend to portray themselves as “anti-imperialist,” while in truth they are striving to swap western imperialism with Islamic imperialism.

Islamist ideology can be traced back to Hassan al-Banna and the Muslim Brotherhood, founded in 1928. Al-Banna viewed the 1924 dissolution of the last Islamic Caliphate, the Ottoman Empire, and the European colonization of the Middle East, beginning with France’s 1830 occupation of Algeria, as an affront to Islam. The early 20th century was a period of rapid secularization in the Middle East, when Arab nationalism threatened to replace pan-Islamic identity with a pan-Arab identity. Al-Banna opposed all of this, hoping to return to “authentic” Islamic practice through the (re)establishment of the Islamic Caliphate.

Islamism is an antisemitic ideology. Islamists hate Jews -- and by extension, the Jewish state -- because of the Prophet Muhammad’s conflict with the Jewish tribes of the Arabian Peninsula in the 7th century. Islamistsbelieve that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is rooted in a struggle between Muslims and their “eternal enemies,” the Jews.

Hassan Al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, viewed the dissolution of the last Islamic Caliphate (empire) and the secularization of the Muslim world as an affront to Islam.

ISLAMISM, DHIMMITUDE, AND THE JEWS

Islamists seek to revive “authentic Islamic practice,” by which they mean, essentially, that they wish to go back in time.��This desire to turn back the clock puts them in conflict with Jews for two reasons:

During his earliest conquests, the Prophet Muhammad and his army came into fierce conflict with a number of Jewish tribes that had settled in Arabia, some of which had refused to convert to Islam and even accused Muhammad and his followers of appropriating figures from the Torah. For Islamists, this initial conflict between Jews and the earliest Muslims is “proof” that Jews are “eternal enemies” of Islam.

Following Muhammad’s death in 632, the Arab Islamic empires conquered lands exponentially quickly. As a result of this rapid colonization, the Muslim authorities were faced with the “problem” of how to handle the conquered Indigenous peoples that resisted conversion to Islam. This “problem” was solved with a treaty known as the Pact of Umar. This so-called treaty allowed select religious and cultural minorities, known as dhimmis, or “People of the Book,” to practice their beliefs so long as they paid the “jizya” tax and abided by a set of restrictive, second-class citizenship laws.

Under Islamist regimes, such as the Islamic Republic of Iran, Jews are, to this day, still treated as dhimmis.

THE GENOCIDAL ANTISEMITISM OF THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD

Hamas emerged as the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. Hassan al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, worshipped Adolf Hitler.

Like Hitler, al-Banna sought to exterminate all Jews…in his case, from the Middle East.

According to German documents from the period, in the 1940s, the Nazis trained some 700 members of the Muslim Brotherhood. Nazi Germany heavily funded the Brotherhood, which contributed to its massive growth. In 1938, the Brotherhood had some 800 members. By the end of World War II, it had grown to a million members.

In 1939, Germany “transferred to al-Banna some E£1000 per month, a substantial sum at the time. In comparison, the Muslim Brotherhood fundraising for the cause of Palestine yielded E£500 for that entire year.”

Naturally, Nazism deeply influenced the Muslim Brotherhood’s ideology. 

The father of Palestinian nationalism, Haj Amin al-Husseini, was a prominent member of the Muslim Brotherhood. Yasser Arafat, the most influential Palestinian leader of all time, began his “career” fighting for the Muslim Brotherhood. Which brings us to Hamas. Hamas’s founder, Sheikh Ahmed Ismail Hassan Yassin, was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood and was responsible for establishing the Brotherhood’s Palestinian branch. In 1987, he founded Hamas.

The Muslim Brotherhood’s hatred for Jews goes far beyond its original Nazi affiliations. During the 1936-1939 Arab Revolt in Mandatory Palestine, during which Palestinian Arabs revolted against Jewish immigration and carried out a number of antisemitic massacres, the Muslim Brotherhood began disseminating antisemitic rhetoric, often targeting the Egyptian Jewish community.

Al-Nadhir, the Muslim Brotherhood’s magazine, published openly antisemitic articles, peddling conspiracy theories and demonizing the Egyptian Jewish community for its success in various industries. Notably, Al-Nadhir even called for the expulsion of Jews from Egypt, accusing Jews of “corrupting” Egypt and calling Jews a “societal cancer.” Al-Nadhir made boycott lists of Jewish businesses.

Unfortunately, the Muslim Brotherhood’s antisemitism is not a relic of the past. Mohammed Badie, the Muslim Brotherhood’s present day “Supreme Guide,” believes Jews “spread corruption on earth” and calls for “holy jihad” as an antidote.

THE ORIGINAL HAMAS CHARTER: EXPLICITLY GENOCIDAL

Hamas’s founding 1988 charter is explicitly antisemitic and genocidal. Below are some excerpts:

“Our struggle against the Jews is very great and very serious.” -- Introduction

“The Day of Judgement will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Moslems, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. Only the Gharkad tree, (evidently a certain kind of tree) would not do that because it is one of the trees of the Jews." -- Article 7

“In face of the Jews' usurpation of Palestine, it is compulsory that the banner of Jihad be raised.” -- Aritcle 15 

“With their money, they took control of the world media, news agencies, the press, publishing houses, broadcasting stations, and others. With their money they stirred revolutions in various parts of the world with the purpose of achieving their interests and reaping the fruit therein. They were behind the French Revolution, the Communist revolution and most of the revolutions we heard and hear about, here and there. With their money they formed secret societies, such as Freemasons, Rotary Clubs, the Lions and others in different parts of the world for the purpose of sabotaging societies and achieving Zionist interests. With their money they were able to control imperialistic countries and instigate them to colonize many countries in order to enable them to exploit their resources and spread corruption there.” -- Article 22

“Israel, Judaism and Jews challenge Islam and the Moslem people.” -- Article 28

BUT...HAMAS CHANGED THEIR CHARTER!

Some Hamas apologists will tell you that Hamas no longer intends to exterminate all Jews, because in 2017, they “replaced their [openly genocidal] charter.” Well, lucky for you, Hamas is here to set the record straight. See, after releasing their “new” charter, Hamas co-founder Mahmoud al-Zahar assured the media that the 2017 document did not replace their original 1988 charter.

The 2017 document was thus not a “new” charter from a “reformed” Hamas, but rather, a propaganda document aimed at redeeming Hamas’s image to the west.

Since 2017, Hamas has made openly genocidal calls toward Jews. For example: 

In 2018, Hamas’s Al-Aqsa TV media channel predicted “the cleansing of Palestine of the filth of the Jews.”

In 2019, Hamas Political Bureau member Fathi Hammad said, “You seven million Palestinians abroad, enough warming up! There are Jews everywhere! We must attack every Jew on planet Earth –- we must slaughter and kill them, with Allah’s help.” In 2021, Hammad called, via Al-Aqsa TV, for the Palestinians in Jerusalem to “cut off the heads of the Jews.”

In May of 2021, the leader of Hamas, Yahya Sinwar, led a rally in which the crowd was encouraged to chant, "We will trample on the heads of the Jews in front of everyone..."

ISLAMIST INFLUENCE ON PALESTINIAN NATIONALISM

The earliest Arab nationalists in Palestine were not necessarily Islamists. Falastin, an influential anti-Zionist, Arab nationalist newspaper, was founded by two Palestinian Christians in 1911. Khalil Beidas, who was the first Arab to identify as Palestinian, in 1898, was a Christian. Nevertheless, the Palestinian nationalist movement soon fell under the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Initially, Palestinian Arab nationalists advocated for a unified Arab state in Greater Syria. In 1920, Haj Amin al-Husseini began advocating for an independent Palestinian Arab state. To draw people to his cause, which was not yet well-known to the average population, he began emphasizing the importance of Palestine to Islam, and particularly the importance of Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa Mosque. Soon, he began disseminating the libel that the Jews intended to destroy Al-Aqsa Mosque. This libel has cost thousands of Jewish lives and is spread widely to this day.

Early on, the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt adopted the Palestinian cause. After World War II, Haj Amin al-Husseini, who had spent the war working as a propagandist for the Nazis in Berlin, escaped to Egypt with the help of the Muslim Brotherhood.

The Muslim Brotherhood fought against the State of Israel in 1948, along with other Islamist militias, such as the Army of the Holy War. Among its fighters were Yasser Arafat. In the 1960s, Arafat came under the influence of the Soviet Union and shifted his image to that of a communist counterrevolutionary, as opposed to an Islamist, though his rhetoric in Arabic continued emphasizing the importance of jihad and Al-Aqsa Mosque to the Palestinian movement. Nevertheless, after Islamic Revolution in Iran, after which the Islamic Republic adopted the Palestinian movement, and with the establishment of Hamas and groups such as Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Palestinian nationalism has once again been undergone an Islamization.

Resistance News Network: Telegram

Today, the IOF claimed to have "rescued" a captive from a tunnel in Rafah, southern Gaza Strip. The captive was reportedly found alone in the tunnel, not guarded and seemingly abandoned. There were no clashes that took place, and the IOF stated that its mission was not originally carried out to find him. According to the IOF's claim, 8 captives have been extracted from Gaza alive, 27 dead bodies have been recovered, and 108 captives remain in Gaza. At the current rate, the IOF will need three years to find the remaining captives, and 20 years to locate the rest of the (known) tunnel network, according to their own claims. After 11 months, however, the resistance remains steadfast, engaging in fierce clashes and continuing to strike the zionist depth.

The Cradle: Telegram

According to the israeli military, a bedouin prisoner held in Gaza, Qaid Farhan Alkadi (52), was found alive inside a tunnel in the southern part of the strip.

Middle East Observer: Telegram

The New York Times: According to two senior israeli officials, the army forces found the captive judge “by chance.” A third official said that the soldiers who found him initially feared that he was a Hamas operative.

Hostage deaths could pile pressure on Netanyahu to agree Gaza ceasefire

Discovery of six bodies may trigger renewed protests as anger grows over prime minister’s handling of the crisis * Middle East crisis live – latest updates Overnight, the rumours spread: the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) had found bodies in Gaza. Everyone in Israel knew the corpses were likely to be hostages seized on 7 October. The grim details – how many, their identities, and how and when they died – slowly emerged during the early hours of Sunday, to mounting sorrow and fury across the country. The bodies of six people kidnapped alive by Hamas – Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Alexander Lobanov, Almog Sarusi and Master Sgt Ori Danino – were found in a Rafah tunnel 20 metres underground, a kilometre away from where another hostage, Qaid Farhan Alkadi, was found in relatively decent health last week. Goldberg-Polin, an Israeli-American citizen, appeared in a Hamas video in April. It was clear from the footage that his left hand had been amputated.

Israelis Forces Recover the Bodies of Six Hostages, Including One American Citizen

As Israel’s justified war against Hamas raged, the terror group still held over 100 hostages. Once again, a ceasefire agreement was rejected by Hamas last week. Tragically, Israeli forces made a gruesome discovery this weekend in Gaza: the bodies of six hostages were recovered, including one American (via Axios): 

Israel Defense Forces recovered the bodies of six Israeli hostages held by Hamas in Gaza, including one American citizen, Israeli officials said.  Why it matters: The recovery operation took place amid continued efforts to reach a hostage-release and ceasefire in Gaza deal.  After the operation, there are 101 hostages remaining in Gaza. Driving the news: The recovery operation took place on Saturday afternoon local time but it took many hours to officially identify the bodies and notify the families, Israeli officials said.  Israeli officials said it is still unclear when and how the hostages were killed but at least some of them were still alive in recent months.  The six bodies belong to three men and three women who were kidnapped by Hamas from the Nova music festival in southern Israel on Oct. 7. The body of Hersh Goldberg-Polin, a U.S. citizen who became the symbol of the American hostages held by Hamas, was among those recovered.  Goldberg-Polin was last seen in a video released by Hamas in April. His parents recently spoke at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, with thousands in the audience chanting "bring them back" and calling for the release of the hostages. 

The publication reported that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet has been openly disagreeing about the situation. 

Axios’ Barak Ravid reported, “Two days ago, an Israeli security cabinet meeting turned into an unprecedented shouting match between Netanyahu and his Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant over this issue.” 

“Gallant, IDF chief of staff Gen. Herzi Halevi, and Mossad director David Barnea claimed Netanyahu's proposal to vote on a resolution to maintain full Israeli control along the Philadelphi corridor on the Egypt-Gaza border would undermine a possible deal,” he added. 

Yet, how many agreements have been rejected by Hamas? It’s reached a point where we can no longer count. While it’s a politically cold position, there must be a tacit acknowledgment that negotiations are futile with this band of vicious thugs, and the destruction of the terror group must be where all resources and time are devoted—they’re not going to release the hostages. They know it’s what’s keeping them alive. The full release of the hostages will only buy a short reprieve before Israeli military and intelligence forces wage a shadow war to kill the rest of Hamas. These are terrorists—they cannot be reasoned with. 

In a bit of good news, there was an IDF rescue operation in Rafah, where an Arab-Israeli, Qaid Farhan Alkadi, 52. Biden had warned Israel to avoid this area. The IDF rightfully ignored our senile president.
