Hamas plans 13 public executions in Gaza Strip

Authorities in the Hamas-run Gaza Strip are planning to carry out a series of public executions, the attorney general for the Palestinian enclave said on Sunday.

The terror group has carried out previous executions in Gaza, although rarely in public and mainly of people accused of collaborating with Israel. Sunday’s announcement involved those convicted of criminal offenses.

“Capital punishments will be implemented soon in Gaza,” attorney general Ismail Jaber told journalists. “I ask that they take place before a large crowd.”

which is even worse. Because hamas is forced to be terrorists by big bad Israel. They'd be liberal, gay loving, women empowering progressives if it weren't for Israel. Blech. Just imagine what they would call anyone in the US that favored public executions.

....in favor of fantasy and propaganda. It's 100% Israel's fault & don't question that - ever. Anyone questioning the "narrative" is a rightwing racist.

What am I missing?

One day they'll understand why they continually lose on this issue (as they will during the convention when every single anti-Israel plank gets voted down) but that day is obviously not today. It may not be a pc thing to say but Israel continues to be extremely lucky in her enemies. They ALWAYS suck worse.
