Khalid Mashal, former leader of Hamas, released a video Tuesday asking Muslims worldwide to apply Jihad “on the ground rather than just in theory.” .In the video, which has now been removed from YouTube after less than 24 hours, he called Friday, October 13 "The Friday of Al-Aqsa flood.”.Mashal became the Hamas leader after it was established in 1987 and chief of its political bureau, which he founded in 1992. He led Hamas until 2017 at the end of his term limit and in 2021 was elected head of the Islamic terrorist group's Diaspora Office. .Hamas militants bombarded Israeli towns near Gaza with thousands of rockets and attacked with soldiers on the ground Saturday morning, prompting Israeli President Isaac Herzog to declare war. Since the invasion, there has been escalating violence with thousands dead in Israel and Palestine..Mashal asked Muslims to fulfill the following four criteria at midday on October 13, according to a translation from Rachid Hammami (Brother Rachid on Twitter ("X")) who is a Moroccan former Muslim television host and national security expert. .As translated by Hammami, Mashal called Hamas militants to attacks around the world targetting Israelis and Americans during the Muslim weekly prayer, Jumu’ah Prayer. .He said Friday will be a day for Muslims to “show anger” toward Zionists and America. He called for militants in Muslim countries and “also among Muslim diaspora around the world" to participate in “The Friday of Al-Aqsa flood.”.Secondly, he asked for “Financial Jihad,” asking for financial support from Muslims around the world “to give to the fighters of Gaza in order to compensate them for the destruction.”.Thirdly, he called for Muslims to apply “political pressure” to “stop Israel’s military invasion of Gaza.”.Finally, he called for Muslims worldwide to “carry Jihad by their souls” and “to fight and be martyrs for Al-Aqsa.” .“He wants Muslims to fight against the Jews, starting with Muslims who live in the countries surrounding Israel: Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and Egypt (but also other countries), to go to the borders and try to enter, each by his own means,” Hammami wrote. “He said: This is the time for Jihad to be applied on the ground rather than just in theory. He asked the Mujahedeen to go in long caravans to spell their blood on the land of Palestine.”.“These are his final words: Funds are important but today we are asking for your blood and souls [to be sacrificed for Palestine].”.This is what the Western Standard is up againstThe Trudeau government is funding lies and propaganda by directly subsidizing the mainstream media.
