Darya Safai is an Iran-born human rights activist and author who has served as a member of Belgium’s Chamber of Representatives since 2019. She published the following post on social media about footage of the Oct. 7 Hamas attack in Israel that was shown in the Belgian Senate on Thursday:
Today, I watched a horror movie. With this difference that it was not a staged play or acted…what we were shown really happened. It was uncensored footage of the 7 October massacre by Hamas.
The movie that was actually planned to be shown in parliament, but was eventually refused by the left-wing Chamber president. While it is precisely often the left-wing politicians who apparently need to be reminded of this massacre. Today, we got to see the movie in the Senate.
It was tough to see this footage, but I think it is a moral duty for politicians to face these atrocities before declaring some measure.
Of course we don’t share these images, out of respect, but I’m going to try to describe it a bit so that people would realise that one really cannot refer to Hamas and their atrocities as freedom fighters. People should realize that it is unacceptable to condone this under the guise of a pro-Palestinian movement, knowing that Palestinians are also victims of these monsters. Unfortunately, until the day Hamas exists, no lasting solution, something the world is waiting for, will be possible.
In the movie, we saw bloodthirsty young Islamists behaving sadistically at the behest of their Islamic ideology.
“Father… I killed 10 Jews today with my own hands” was a conversation between a young jihadist, excited by his own “heroic act.” His father proudly and approvingly replied “Allah u Akbar” and called out to his wife “come and see, your son is a hero.”
The victims’ crime? Simply being Jews, or, as we often heard on that movie from the terrorists’ mouths, “dirty dogs.” Dogs, according to Islam, are impure and something you will never get clean (no matter how many times you would wash it or whatever). They should best all be killed, exterminated.
At every murder, every beheading, every hostage-taking, they triumphantly roared “Allah u akbar!” And it’s not our imagination, under this motto they commit their crime.
When one wants to judge Israel’s defence, one simply has to think what you yourself would do. My answer is clear: I would defend my family and my people to the last drop of blood.
The footage was often taken by body-cams of the Hamas terrorists or cameras of victims. They were filming in homes and even kindergartens.
The atrocities they were so proud to share with the world.
You can even see them simply torturing and maiming someone, whom they shot but was still alive, with an axe until that person dies. We saw them shouting “Allah u Akbar” and triumphing with a dead soldier’s head that they first cut off his body very slowly.
A father was killed in front of his two boys and the mother was taken as a hostage, and this while the eldest brother tries to push on the wounds of his younger brother to stop the bleeding.
Death by bullet was a dream for many victims that day. We must never forget this massacre. In the name of life and freedom.
As the movie played, many tears flowed among those present and there was a deafening silence. Let us hope this brings more awareness in the political world about what took place that day.
Condemning what happened on the 7th of October is not enough. We must ensure that something like this cannot happen again.
