Hamas hatred: New documentary shows Iranian-backed terror …
Posted By admin on September 13, 2015
HAIFA, Israel - A new documentary grimly predicts the role Iran plays in financing terror organizations and the indoctrination of children at military summer camps in the Middle East will significantly increase as a result of the imminent release of huge sums of money to Tehran under the nuclear agreement endorsed by the Obama administration.
"Iran: Billions for Terror?" depicts children blowing up mock Israeli villages and parroting Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, who is seen telling an adoring Iranian crowd, The entire world particularly the world of Islam is duty-bound and obliged to help the Palestinian people with as many weapons as possible.
Produced by the Center for Near East Policy Research (CNEPR) and filmed by a team of Arab reporters at various locations in Gaza this summer, one of the most disturbing aspects of the footage is the recent introduction of terror training for little girls. The Hamas summer camps mantra, We will sacrifice our lives for the sake of Allah is chanted over and over.
"With billions of dollars of unfrozen assets expected to be unfrozen and available to Iran, Iranian leaders have stated that they will continue to fund Hamas."
- Promo for "Iran: Billions for Terror?"
"With billions of dollars of unfrozen assets expected to be unfrozen and available to Iran, Iranian leaders have stated that they will continue to fund Hamas," states a promo for the film. "This film includes interviews with boy and girl child soldiers of Hamas, who describe their intention to destroy Israelwith guns, and other weapons."
Hamas relationship with Iran has notably improved over the last few years with funding and weapons from Tehran continuing to reach Gaza. Despite the blockade by Israel and Egypt of the enclave, the munitions find their way into their hands of Hamas, as well as Palestinian Islamic Jihad and other terror organizations.
Hamas counselors such as Hassan Suhare appear on the film, and express no qualms about the training of child soldiers.
In Gaza there are over 50 camps in which 15,000 children are being trained. [They] underwent weapons and military training, he said. We were able to help the kids overcome their fear and then the children opened fire. Yesterday the kids blew up model Zionist [Israeli] villages.
Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh is seen proudly declaring, This camp graduation, celebration, is part of a holy effort and a continued struggle as girls as young as six are shown dressed in military fatigues and carry replica machine guns.
Jerusalem will be reconquered only by the weapons of our resistance, says Esra Halil Juma, a military counselor from the girls camp. I call to the people: Please point your guns in the face of the enemy until we liberate Jerusalem and build Palestine, Inshallah [with Gods will].
Sabrin Barakat, another Hamas military girls camp counselor adds, Jerusalem belongs just to the Muslims. The Jews are pigs and dont have any connections with Al Aqsa and Jerusalem. All they have is a pig pen.
The Center has for years documented the cruel indoctrination of Palestinian children, as well as the role of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, which is charged with running schools in the Palestinian territories. The Center has charged that UNRWA worked with the Gaza teachers union allegedly taken over by Hamas in 1999, but such cooperation and the historical use of UNRWA schools for Hamas military camps has been denied by the UN agency that reportedly faced a shortfall of around $100 million ahead of the recent start of the school year.
Our education system is entirely independent and we have a completely different schooling system [to Hamas], UNRWA spokesman Chris Gunness told FoxNews.com earlier this year. There is no question of Hamas approving anything Were educating children after [last summers] conflict where hundreds of thousands were displaced.
David Bedein, director of the Center, told FoxNews.com his group and other advocates finally succeeded this year in getting Hamas barred from summer UNRWA programs. While he believes no UNRWA facilities were used this summer for Hamas camps, he said many of the children participating attend UNRWA schools.
But there have been several notable signs recently that cash-strapped and chronically corrupt Palestinian leaders are souring on UNRWA, which has many regional observers fear the worrying prospect of Iran - flush with funds released as part of the controversial nuclear deal - stepping into the breach and filling the void. There is genuine concern that Iranian funding of its version of child education in Hamas-controlled Gaza and in other areas such as southern Lebanon could accelerate the breeding of a new generation of young jihadists bent on the destruction of Israel.
