VIDEO: Fans Leaving World Series in Phoenix Blast Pro-Hamas Protesters: ‘Killing Kids… that’s what You’re for!’
Fans leaving Chase Field in downtown Phoenix after the World Series Thursday blasted a group of pro-Hamas protesters who had gathered to denounce Israel and the United States for its support of the Jewish nation.
The protesters chanted and gave antisemitic speeches over a loudspeaker during the game. In one speech, a woman wearing a headscarf and who calls herself a “Palestinian American” blasted U.S. policy for sending aid to Israel and saying she is “ashamed” of her American side.
“We send 4 billions a year in weapons, against civilians, against unarmed civilians. Biden is trying to approve 100 billion dollars,” the woman said to her audience. The crowd responded saying, “We don’t call it aid.”
Another protester mounted the stage screaming that they need to be loud enough for the fans inside Chase Field to hear them.
“Why are out here tonight? Because they don’t want us out here tonight, right?” he yelled. “They do not want to hear our voices. So we need to make sure we are loud enough so those people in those stadiums can feel us.”
Another took aim at the Democrat Party and urged protesters to stop voting blue.
“I am tired of being told to vote blue, no matter who. When we’re fucking genocide. Fuck Biden!” she screeched.
But the praise for the activist’s speeches from the small crowd of protesters was quickly overshadowed once fans started leaving Chase Field after the game. Baseball fans were unsupportive and many taunted the pro-Hamas protesters, cursed at them, and yelled out pro-Israel slogans.
One fan told the Hamas supporters to “get out” of the U.S.A. and he called them terrorists for supporting the Palestinians as a police officer tried to get him to keep moving along.
In a short interview, that same man flamed the protesters for refusing to denounce the terrorism of Hamas.
“They have to denounce Hamas, if they don’t denounce Hamas. Then they’re a terrorist organization,” he said of the protesters. “If Palestinians really wanted to be free, then they would denounce Hamas, we don’t want to be under control of Hamas.”
Others attacked the protesters from several directions.
“Free them from Hamas,” one yelled.
“Kill decapitated babies. You stupid mother fuckers,” another said.
“Who is paying ya’ll? Who puts money in your pocket. Somebody is paying you,” one fan accused.
“Fuck you. Muslims hate Jews. Muslims hate Jews!” another yelled.
Another infuriated baseball fan yelled at the Hamas supporters, “Killing kids at a rave, killing kids at rave, huh? That’s what you’re for!”
Finally, a man waved an Israeli flag at the protesters and was hugged and congratulated by several other baseball fans for defying the Hamas supporters.

Lebanon Border Closer to War; Israel Encircles Hamas in Gaza City
The Lebanese-Israeli border is closer to war than it has been thus far in the conflict between Israel and Hamas, as the Palestinian terrorist group claimed responsibility for rockets fired from southern Lebanon at the Israeli city of Kiryat Shemona on Thursday.
Hamas is based in Gaza but also has a presence in Palestinian communities in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) and in other countries, including southern Lebanon, as well as in more distant countries like Qatar, where the Hamas leadership resides.
Hezbollah, a proxy of Iran, controls southern Lebanon (and much of the Lebanese government as well). It has threatened to enter the war and has fired on Israeli positions, killing several soldiers and forcing the evacuation of Israel’s northernmost cities. Israel has responded to each incident by striking the Hezbollah position responsible for the fire. It has also launched preemptive strikes on terrorists who have tried to fire rockets or to infiltrate into northern Israel. But thus far, a broader war has not yet erupted.
Israel has said that it will hold Hezbollah responsible for any rocket fire from southern Lebanon. Accordingly, it struck a number of Hezbollah positions on Thursday evening after several Hamas rockets caused significant damage.
The Times of Israel reported:
The Israel Defense Forces says it is carrying out wide-scale airstrikes on Hezbollah sites in southern Lebanon in response to rocket attacks on northern Israel earlier.
The IDF says that among the targets hit so far by fighter jets, tanks, and artillery are military headquarters, rocket launching positions, weapons storage sites, military complexes, and other infrastructure belonging to the terror group.
Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, the spokesperson for the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), published footage of some of the strikes:

In a statement on Telegram, the IDF stated: “The IDF holds the Hezbollah terrorist organization responsible for the current situation in Lebanon.”
The U.S. has moved two aircraft carriers to the eastern Mediterranean in an effort to deter Iran from opening a northern front.
Meanwhile, in Gaza, the IDF said that it is on the outskirts of the city, a major hub in the northern Gaza Strip.
Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, Chief of the General Staff, said in a statement: “IDF soldiers have been operating in Gaza City and are encircling it from several different directions increasing our entries, as well as our achievements.”

NBC’s Schecter: Hamas Is Hoarding 200k Gallons of Fuel, Keeps Demanding Israel Allow Fuel in So They Can Steal It
On Thursday’s edition of NBC’s “Top Story,” NBC News Investigations Unit Senior Producer Anna Schecter discussed her report that Hamas is hoarding at least 200,000 gallons of fuel and stated that Hamas has continuously demanded fuel and argued that Israel should take care of Gazans because “they want to get the fuel, the resources to fight. And you saw the results of Israel letting down their guard, what happened.”
Schecter said, “[R]eally what Hamas is doing is they take the fuel for themselves and for their war effort.”
She continued, “And what I found really interesting about reporting this story is that, during Hamas’ negotiations with Qatar and the U.S., where they were trying to get Hamas to open the Rafah gate and let people out, fuel was central to the demands that were just unmeetable by Israel, because they know they’re going to use it to fuel the war machine. So, that was fascinating. And it even came into play during the negotiations to free the hostages as well. Fuel is central. And Hamas wants more fuel. And meanwhile, the Gazan population [is] suffering…and the hospitals are about to run out.”
Host Tom Llamas then pointed to Hamas saying that hospitals are about to run out of fuel and contrasted that with their fuel hoarding.
Schecter then said that Hamas leaders say that “the Gazan population, U.N., and even Israel as the ‘occupying force’ should be taking care of the people of Gaza, not Hamas. So, they make all kinds of excuses and their reason is that they want to get the fuel, the resources to fight. And you saw the results of Israel letting down their guard, what happened.”

Hamas Steals Fuel from Gaza Hospitals, Hoards Vast Stockpile for Terrorism
A Wednesday NBC News exposé revealed Hamas is stockpiling vast amounts of fuel for its paramilitary activities, and the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) revealed a recorded phone conversation in which Hamas operatives discussed stealing fuel from civilians and storing it beneath a hospital.
NBC News revealed Hamas has a stockpile of more than 200,000 gallons of fuel, which it uses to provide air and power to its terror tunnel network and fuel the rockets it launches against civilian targets in Israel — a blatant and constant war crime that never seems to be mentioned by critics of the Israeli operation in Gaza.
WATCH: Hamas Fires Volley of Rockets at Israeli City of Ashkelon
NBC noted Hamas has “repeatedly demanded fuel deliveries to Gaza during negotiations to allow foreign nationals to leave the enclave and in talks about the release of 240 people it kidnapped” without mentioning its massive stockpiles.
The intel on Hamas fuel depots came from a combination of “U.S. officials, current and former Israeli officials and academics.”
The report should be no surprise to longtime observers of Gaza. On October 24, when the controversial U.N. Agency for Palestinian Relief (UNRWA) complained it was running out of fuel, the IDF sarcastically suggested it should “ask Hamas if you can have some” of the 500,000 liters it has stashed in both hidden and obvious fuel tanks around Gaza.
“Petrol will not enter Gaza. Hamas takes the petrol for its military infrastructure,” an Israeli military spokesman said at the time.
The IDF on Friday released a recorded conversation in which a Gaza medical official confirmed Hamas is stealing fuel intended for civilians and keeping it in a secret stash beneath the Shifa hospital, the largest in Gaza, where it would be safe from Israeli airstrikes. The medical official was essentially begging Hamas to let him keep some of the diesel fuel shipped to the hospital.
IDF: Phone Call with Gaza Energy Official on Hamas Hoarding Fuel
Israel Defense ForceThe other party on the recorded call, a Hamas terrorist brigade commander, contemptuously joked about giving the Shifa hospital — and other medical facilities Hamas is using as cover for its military fuel dumps — only a few drops of the petrol hoard, which he said was far larger than outside observers suspect. The Hamas commander said his forces are entitled to seize the fuel because they are “working as a government for the sake of the country.”
“The call confirms that Hamas controls the energy and fuel resources in the Gaza Strip and chooses to direct them for terrorism. Moreover, if fuel is allowed to enter the Gaza Strip, Hamas plans to seize those resources,” the IDF said in a statement on Friday.
Hamas Caught on Phone Call Admitting Stealing Fuel from Hospitals
Israel Defense ForcesShifa Hospital officials said on Thursday they have only enough fuel to run the neonatal intensive-care unit. Power has been switched off in the rest of the facility. “The fuel situation is very dangerous. If we don’t have any more fuel by the evening hours, we are going to lose our neonatal units.”
Israel’s Ynet News noted that Shin Bet, the Israeli intelligence service, released a video of the interrogation of a captured Hamas terrorist who confirmed his organization is hiding fuel and weapons underneath hospitals. He specifically mentioned Shifa as one of the hospitals concealing a Hamas fuel and ammo dump.
“Shifa is not small, it is a big place that can be used to hide things,” the captured Hamas operative said. He told his Israeli interrogators that hospitals made great hiding places because “you won’t strike them.”
The Hamas man appeared irritated at his comrades for refueling their fleet of vehicles from “full containers” while leaving the civilians of Gaza with nothing.
“Hamas has its own supply stockpile of fuel. If it cared a whit about the people of Gaza, it would make sure itself that it used that fuel to have the hospitals be able to operate the incubators, stay turned on, etc. But, of course, it doesn’t,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken told the Senate Appropriations Committee on Tuesday.
Blinken made this statement while telling the Senate he could not guarantee Hamas would not seize some of the humanitarian aid shipments intended for Palestinian civilians, although he claimed he had seen no documented reports of theft as of Tuesday.
