Hamas live on “The Day After the War”
The victory parade of the masked men of Al-Qassam in the streets of Gaza, which was greeted with enthusiastic applause by a large crowd of Palestinians, has stunned and astounded the Zionists, who had been accustomed to the destruction of the group by the leaders of Tel Aviv for 15 months. The Hebrew media described Hamas’s show of strength and Abu Ubaidah’s triumphant speech as a great defeat for Israel, which has failed to achieve any achievements against the resistance forces during the war. Zionist analysts have also expressed surprise at the large number of Al-Qassam fighters in Gaza and admitted that Hamas is an ideology that cannot be destroyed.
While many Israelis are disappointed with the ceasefire agreement in Gaza, which they consider to be in favor of the Palestinians, a major issue that has worried the Zionist authorities and citizens is the public presence of Al-Qassam fighters throughout Gaza. Immediately after the ceasefire in Gaza, the Al-Qassam Brigades came out in all areas, displaying their weapons and celebrating their victory over Israel among the people who were cheering for them.
This military show of force throughout Gaza, which the Israeli army claimed to have destroyed Hamas, forced the Hebrew media and analysts to admit that they had not achieved anything in the Gaza war. On Monday, the Zionist media admitted that Israel had been defeated in the October 7 war and that everything that happened after it was an attempt to reduce some of the damage and losses. The Hebrew website “Walla” wrote about this and following the speech of Abu Ubaydah, the spokesman for the Al-Qassam Brigades, after the ceasefire agreement came into effect: Abu Ubaydah’s survival means the failure of Israel’s security and military institutions.
“It must be acknowledged that Hamas is not an extremist, foreign religious movement that has imposed itself on the people of Gaza,” said Ron Ben-Yishai, a military analyst for the newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth. “Hamas is a credible, authentic, culturally and ideologically authentic organization that expresses the discontent of the majority of the more than 2 million residents of the Gaza Strip. We should say that Hamas is Gaza and Gaza is Hamas.” Ben-Yishai continued, “Expressions like ‘overthrowing Hamas’ and ‘complete victory’ are expressions used in the realm of literature and poetry, not demands imposed by a responsible government on a ‘hard-core ideological enemy’ like Hamas.”
