Hamas’ massacre on Oct. 7 was “an amazing heroic operation” - Lebanese politician
Secretary of the South Lebanon Council of Culture Abdallah Rizq: "This is not a condemnation. Let no one understand as if I am condemning the heroic operation that was carried out on Oct. 7, [2023] (i.e., Hamas' massacre and terror war on Israel). There is no condemnation here.This is an amazing heroic operation. But did they [Hamas] properly read the balance of powers and the conflict with the Israeli enemy? Are we ready today to sacrifice all of Gaza? For what purpose?"
