ISRAEL - Palestinian Journalist Tells the Truth

In a February 26, 2025 article on the Elaph website, Palestinian journalist Majdi Abd Al-Wahhab slammed the leaders of Hamas, Hizbullah and the entire resistance axis, stating that only getting rid of them will save the Arab nation from the situation it has reached. These leaders, he says, purport to raise the banner of resistance and liberation, but actually lead only to destruction and death. They also pretend to champion Islam, but are actually far removed from the righteousness and the compassion that characterize this religion.

Focusing on Hizbullah secretary-general Hassan Nasrallah and Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, both of whom were killed by Israel in the course of the war, Abd Al-Wahhab points to the discrepancy between their names and their deeds: The name Nasrallah means “Allah’s victory,” but Nasrallah and his organization are “very far from Allah, from His Names and from His attributes,” and the name Yahya means “he will live,” but the path of Hamas and the resistance axis leads only to death. These leaders, says Abd Al-Wahhab, should be stripped of their names, for they are not worthy of them. He calls on the successors of Nasrallah and Sinwar to learn from the ways of the donkeys, who know how to overcome obstacles and difficulties, and exhorts them to lead their people to “a safe haven, far from wars and destruction.”

Commentary: The excerpt from the article by journalist Majdi Abd Al-Wahhab is extremely revealing, with plain, hard-hitting truth.

Hamas’ principles and policies include the statement, “The Zionist project is a racist, aggressive, colonial and expansionist project based on seizing the properties of others; it is hostile to the Palestinian people and to their aspiration for freedom, liberation, return and self-determination. The Israeli entity is the plaything of the Zionist project and its base of aggression.”

Hamas—and we must add, the world—stands in opposition to God’s unconditional covenant: “In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates” (Genesis 15:18). Later, it was Joshua who received this order: “Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel. Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses” (Joshua 1:2-3).
