Hamas Tried to Bait IDF Into Killing a 4-Year Old Child

Hamas has once again demonstrated its utter contempt for human life, even that of its own people. The recent incident, in which the terror group cynically sent a defenseless 4-year-old child toward an IDF military post in Gaza, is a horrifying testament to the organization’s depravity. Demonstrating a commitment to safeguarding innocent lives, the IDF coordinated with international organizations to ensure the child’s safe return to his family.

Rather than safeguarding the well-being of its youngest and most vulnerable, Hamas exploits them as mere tools in its endless war against Israel. This despicable act is not an isolated incident but part of a broader pattern in which Hamas systematically abuses children—whether by training them as child soldiers, using them as human shields, or sending them to their deaths in the name of their fanatical agenda.

Time and again, Hamas has shown that it views the people of Gaza not as citizens to be protected, but as disposable pawns in its war of terror. While its leaders enjoy luxurious lifestyles in Qatar, the people of Gaza—especially its children—are forced to suffer under Hamas’ oppressive rule. Instead of investing in schools, hospitals, and infrastructure, Hamas prioritizes terror tunnels, rocket launch sites, and suicide missions, ensuring that generations of Palestinian children are raised in an environment of violence and hopelessness.

This latest incident, in which Hamas shamelessly tried to sacrifice a young boy in an attempt to provoke a response from the IDF, should be a wake-up call to the international community. There is no excuse for such inhumanity. Any regime that sends its own children to die while its leaders hide in safety is not a government—it is a death cult. The world must recognize Hamas for what it truly is: an organization that thrives on bloodshed and misery, even at the expense of its own people.
