IDF: Hamas planning Monday ‘massacre’ of Israelis, over 100,000 rioters expected


The IDF issued a stark warning about the culmination of the Hamas terror group’s “March of Return,” which is arriving a day earlier than planned.

In anticipation of violence and mayhem planned by the Hamas terror group to coincide with the opening of the US embassy in Jerusalem, the IDF projected that the number of Palestinian rioters on Monday could reach 100,000, with hundreds potentially attempting to breach the border fence and attack nearby towns within Israel.

The IDF’s warnings included reference to the potential for an attempted “massacre” of Israeli civilians, as the Palestinian street prepares for the unbridled rioting that generally accompanies “Nakba Day” on May 15, which is the Palestinians’ version of Israel’s Independence Day, invoking the Arabic word for catastrophe.

Military intelligence indicates, however, that Hamas won’t wait the extra day and will instead push up the violence to May 14 to coincide with Monday’s US Embassy move in an attempt to attract more international attention.

The Israeli military and police are prepared for a number of scenarios, including chaotic attacks staged by groups of rioters breaking through the security barrier, mass arson and property damage, and direct armed attacks on troops by Hamas commandos. The IDF is also on guard against attempts to kidnap soldiers.

In the video below, the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit warns that Hamas seeks to “torch farmland,” as it has already done with arson kites in recent days, and murder “innocent men, women, and children.” [That video did not accompany the article]

“The IDF’s preparation includes the additional deployment of a number of combat battalions to the Gaza border, special forces, intelligence collection units, and snipers. In addition, the Central Command will also receive additional combat battalions and intelligence collection teams as reinforcement,” announced the army on Sunday. To that end, additional troops were deployed to Israeli communities close to the Gaza border.

It has been suggested that Hamas seeks sufficient violence to distract Gazans from the terror group’s utter failure to effectively govern the coastal enclave, while avoiding full-blown war with Israel, which would be disastrous for Hamas.

In recent weeks, for instance, Hamas has directed rioters to not only destroy Israeli property, but has also ordered the destruction of humanitarian infrastructure, such as the Kerem Shalom crossing (through which medical supplies enter Gaza) and major gas pipelines running into the Strip.

Hamas’ health ministry claims that about 50 Palestinians have been killed during the riots, with Israel identifying a significant number of the casualties as Hamas operatives.

“In recent weeks, for instance, Hamas has directed rioters to not only destroy Israeli property, but has also ordered the destruction of humanitarian infrastructure, such as the Kerem Shalom crossing (through which medical supplies enter Gaza) and major gas pipelines running into the Strip.”

In their attempts to win the "Shooting Self in Foot" award, they blew up the only crossing where humanitarian aid products were provided to them by multiple truckloads daily, causing it to be closed for weeks for reconstruction.

It's so sad that the people suffer for the political goals of the, for lack of a better term, leadership in the Palestinian territories.

Getting powerful groups to join — but not dominate — the movement took convincing, said Salah Abdel Ati, the head of the Great March of Return’s International and Legal Committee. Gaza been ruled by militants Hamas since they won elections in 2006.

Broad buy-in is part of the strategy. Organizers say the “Great March of Return” is financed by small donations and governed by a central committee of about 27 seats populated by representatives from some 18 political and civil society groups — including the dominant West Bank political party Fatah, as well as Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, both of which are recognized by the U.S. as terrorist organizations.

It has been suggested that Hamas seeks sufficient violence to distract Gazans from the terror group’s utter failure to effectively govern the coastal enclave, while avoiding full-blown war with Israel, which would be disastrous for Hamas.

Is it looking like the organizers of the "Great March of Return" might be setting the stage for the farewell to Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad?  One can only hope ... Peace is an illusive concept to start with --- made far more difficult when extremist organizations have the  ruling power .... def does not give any form a Peace a chance, in my opinion...

You might be right-- I wouldn't rule out the possibility that they might want an even more violent terror group to lead them.

Had not considered that being an option ... yet, what difference would a more violent group make? .. where is this group going to lead the Palestinians to, their deaths?  Would not more violence be met with the same or more Israeli fire power?

Where? Are you talking about the terrorist attempts to breach the border fence, or the opening ceremonies of the US Embassy?

I had just read an article saying that NO Democrats attended the opening of the US Embassy in Jerusalem, but this article, and you did not direct your comment to any NT member, is only about the Hamas violence at the border. I don't think it required an insult on your part to make a point.

Reviewed.. The comment was an indirect insult. The removal was correct.

Yup. And the violent hordes from Gaza were led by Hillary herself!

Nothing new here actually.

My apologies, I accidentally left off the first words of the headline.  I have now corrected it - it is:

IDF: Hamas planning Monday ‘massacre’ of Israelis, over 100,000 rioters expected
