Trump Calls for Justice as Hamas Atrocities Reach New Depths

The gruesome massacre of October 7 in southern Israel left behind unimaginable horrors—slain civilians, blood-soaked homes, and burned remains. Among the most heart-wrenching images was that of Shiri Bibas, holding her two young sons in a desperate bid to shield them from Hamas’s inhuman savagery.

For months, hope remained that Shiri and her children would return alive. However, Hamas’s depravity knows no bounds. In a despicable display, they showcased the Bibas family’s coffins to a cheering crowd in Gaza. Hamas originally blamed Israel for their deaths, but Israeli forensic experts uncovered the horrific truth: the children were murdered at the hands of their captors, their small bodies desecrated in a sickening ploy to frame Israel. The sheer evil required to strangle a baby is beyond human comprehension.

Adding insult to injury, Hamas tried to deceive the world by handing over a random corpse, claiming it was Shiri. Only when exposed did they surrender her real body. This blatant disregard for the ceasefire agreement is yet another testament to Hamas’s deceit and barbarism.

President Donald J. Trump, a steadfast leader, has expressed frustration over Hamas’s continuous deceit and the slow pace of hostage releases. While Israel is forced to free hundreds of Palestinian prisoners, Hamas drags its feet, releasing captives at an excruciatingly slow pace.

Trump, a man of action, previously warned Hamas: release all hostages by February 15, or face overwhelming force. He left the final decision to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who extended the ceasefire to retrieve more hostages. This past Saturday, six more captives were freed, yet Hamas once again exploited the moment, staging a propaganda stunt while forcing two additional hostages—who weren’t even on the release list—to sit inside a car and plead for Netanyahu to negotiate their release, recording a cruel video designed to humiliate Israel.

The world must recognize that Hamas is not a political organization, nor a resistance movement—it is a terrorist entity fueled by destruction, deception, and bloodshed. Hamas does not desire peace; it seeks Israel’s obliteration. Against such evil, the United States must stand resolutely with Israel—not with weak diplomacy, but with the unyielding strength that President Trump has long championed.

Too many have entertained the false hope that Hamas can be reasoned with. The horrors inflicted upon the Bibas family prove otherwise. Now is not the time for negotiations with butchers—it is a time for decisive action.

Under President Trump’s leadership, the world knew America stood firmly with Israel and refused to tolerate terror. It is time for that power to return. Hamas must be eliminated, the hostages must be freed, and justice must be served. Only then can the hope for lasting peace in the Middle East become a reality.
