Absolutely horrible.
Why did they take Kfir, who was 9-months old and Ariel, who was 4-years old, specifically? Because they were born? Because of *where* they were born?
What is the value-proposition in taking a 9 month old and 4 year old
No excuse for murdering toddlers. EVER.
They played upbeat pop-sounding music and you can hear the crowd whistle, whoop, and clap. Lots of people brought their kids to see the dead family. I’d recommend watching the videos, though it is truly upsetting. Those poor children that were taken and murdered and those poor children being raised to celebrate these things. Whole situation is awful.
The coffins are mislabeled. Kfir’s name has Ariel’s photo and vice versa.
The coffin says in Hebrew and Arabic “Date of arrest 7/10/2023”
They also handed the coffins locked with [keys that don’t unlock them](https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-842935).
Throughout the whole time crowds were cheering and celebrating.
Watch this with the sound on to understand the level of monstrosity.

Another neatly dressed Hamas soldier. Never see one anywhere else.
I hope they find peace.
Absolutely horrible.
Two healthy children were taken by force and are now dead. The carnival like setting is not a good look.
Disgusting
They took these kids from their home, they have full responsibility for what happened to them, shifting the blame is complete and utter bullshit.
These children were ripped from their homes, violently abducted, and kept in horrid conditions underground. I don’t care what you feel about this conflict, it is HORRIBLY DISHONEST, to absolve Hamas of responsibility for their murders. You should be fucking ashamed if that’s what you’re taking away from this full image.
Someone please remind me again what the attacks of 10/7/23 accomplished for Palestinians other than to lead to Gaza’s destruction, the deaths of ten thousands of them and the election of Trump, who now wants to deport all Gazans and turn it into a luxury resort? Has terrorism ever achieved its stated aims? Northern Ireland is still part of the UK, there is no independent Chechnya, Kurdistan or Basque country, communists don’t run any European country, and Puerto Rico is still a US territory.
Terrorism almost always backfires and is NOT guerrilla warfare.
They wouldn’t have been killed if they weren’t taken hostage in the first place. They had no business in those people’s houses and taking babies, and I don’t care what any other opinion is about it. This was wrong.
Free Palestine from hamas
The comments here are wild lol you know you don’t have to support the terrorist organization killing innocent people or the country committing an ethnic cleansing and killing innocent people? Sometimes both sides of a conflict are bad.
Evil bastards.
May The Bibas Family’s memory be a blessing.
May Hamas’s name and memory be erased.
Fuck hamas
Imagine trusting terrorist, lol.
Evil. Plain and simple.
Has anyone else noticed that Hamas has made a point of showing their people equipped with Israeli weapons? This guy is carrying the Tavor, for example.
I don’t get the hysteria over the crop. Until there is forensic proof that the hostages were killed by Israeli bombs leaving the image of the PM (as a vampire for christs sake) is just furthering Hamas propo. Seriously supporting an org that parades coffins and runs hostages thru a gauntlet of wild animals. Wow.
Wow, they printed a banner as well. Hamas milking this for all it’s worth. Twisting the knife.
Hamas are scum
people support this…

Even if, and it is a big if, these poor civilians were indeed killed by an Israeli airstrike, none of it would have happened if Hamas had not kidnapped them. Those poor children. This is truly sickening.
Fuck Hamas
Way to antagonize more conflict.
Anyone supporting Hamas is a POS…period….let the terrorist sympathizing downvotes begin
Murderous Hamas terrorist scum. Blaming everyone else for what they did. Hamas kidnapped these innocent people on 7th of October, celebrated their act then murdered them and now they are blaming everyone else. Coward scum.
More proof that Hamas is the biggest bunch of morons in the Middle East. This does nothing to help their cause, It just gives Israel and Trump the excuse they want for more bloodshed.
The uncropped picture is somehow even more disgusting.
Kidnapping children, killing them, blaming Israel without any evidence, and parading their remains in order to spread political propaganda.
I can’t wait for these animals to be wiped off the map
that militant should enjoy the last few days of life he has left
Piece of shit Hamas dogs.
Scum
Fuck Hamas. Cowardly worthless twats.
🎗💔🧡
This picture doesn’t fit the Reddit narrative. This post will end up with more comments than likes. You can’t show anything that makes Hamas look bad on Reddit
Reminder that supporting Palestine does not mean you should support or justify what Hamas are doing
It’s absolutely horrific. Also Hamas labeled the boys’ coffins incorrectly. Kfir was the younger of the two victims. Disgusting display. Baruch Dayan Emet.
Fucking sad 😔 to see this.
“With the tube on the lefthand side, this smells of a rotting terrorist organization trying to wash their hands of blood in propaganda. If I write the next sentence, Reddit would defend these maggots in the name of free speech. You posters are forgetting what happened in October”.
The UN and the media have been telling us that Gazans are deprived of food and essential supplies and are starving. However, in every photo and video of hostage releases, the Hamas guys certainly look robust and well fed, with fresh new ~~costumes~~ uniforms and weaponry. Could it be that they have been getting preferential treatment at the detriment of the average Gazan?
The non cropped version is even worse somehow
