World leaders, including Joe Biden, urge Israel to pause its war operations for ‘humanitarian’ negotiations with Hamas. However, these terrorists made clear their overall goal. Hamas spokesman Ghazi Hamad told Lebanon TV that they will repeat the October 7 massacre as often as needed to ‘remove’ Israel from the region—and to annihilate all Israelis.

How did American media outlets cover this? With the exception of a single mention by NBC News, they ignored Hamad’s declaration entirely. Neither the New York Times nor the Washington Post made a single mention of it. The same is true of CNN, ABC and CBS.

The history of cease fires between Hamas and Israel demonstrates that the terrorists use them to load up for their next attack operation, and Hamad’s declaration shows their purpose. Our outlets have hundreds of stories between them highlighting calls for cease fire, and not a single report on why it would be futile.

Elite media in America have chosen a side. They have sided with the monsters of October 7.
