Netanyahu with fangs, propagandist inscription: Hamas carries out sickening parade while returning bodies of 4 hostages

A sickening parade Hamas carried out while handing over the bodies of four Israeli hostages is being widely condemned. The terror group returned the bodies of little Kfir Bibasm along with his brother, Ariel, who was kidnapped when he was four, their mother, Shiri, 33, and Oded Lifshitz, 84. Kfir, the youngest Israeli hostage, was abducted when he was only nine months old.

The shocking public display by Hamas

The propaganda-filled parade saw Hamas blaming Israel and the US for the hostages’ deaths. Their coffins were displayed on stage in Khan Younis in front of a mural depicting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a vampire, with blood dripping from his fangs. Next to the coffins were two missiles with English text reading, “They were killed by USA bombs.” A photo of the Bibas family and Lifshitz was also shown in a pool of blood.

The coffin that carried Shiri was marked with the words, “Arrested on October 7,” Israeli media reported. The bodies of Kfir and Ariel were placed in the wrong coffins too, as per reports, with their names switched.

UN rights chief Volker Turk condemned the shocking public display, saying, “Under international law, any handover of the remains of the deceased must comply with the prohibition of cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment, ensuring respect for the dignity of the deceased and their families.”

In a final act of insult, the four coffins were reportedly passed through metal detectors to make sure they were not booby-trapped. “Prior to the military ceremony, the coffins were scanned for explosives,” an IDF spokesperson told New York Post.

Netanyahu has vowed to “settle the score with the vile murderers.” “On this day, we are all united,” he said. “We are all united in unbearable grief.”

He added, “We will bring back all our hostages, destroy the murderers, eliminate Hamas, and together — with God’s help — we will secure our future.”
