Hamas horrors you luckily won’t see — glimpse of terror too sick for Israel to air

Blood. Blood everywhere, trails of it, puddles of it. Burned bodies still smoking. A man with his nose blown off. Headless Israeli soldiers. An elderly woman clad only in her brightly colored underwear never meant to be seen by so many. Piles of bodies surrounded by young men celebrating, chanting, Allahu akbar!

Some footage has been geolocated to Gaza. A broken woman is taken from the back of a Jeep, the rear of her pants coated in blood, and brought to the back seat. We can easily understand what s likely happening to her there. Young men clamor over, trying to get a look inside, some recording with their cellphones. Two older men walk over finally, this will stop, I almost think. No: They wanted a good look, too. 

Women who were raped had their legs broken, consulate staff said. Then they were killed. 

Many times I wanted to look away, but I forced myself not to. We journalists had to see what happened so we could tell the world.

Yet here is a line from a CBS News piece written by a journalist who saw the footage in Israel: In another clip, a militant stands over a man who appears to have been shot in the gut and hacks at him multiple times with a garden hoe.

The words terrorist or terrorism don t appear in the piece. (They don t appear in the New York Times report of that screening either.) 

I can tell you it was not a militant who stands over a man. A group of terrorists argue over who gets to behead the man, a Thai worker bleeding profusely from his stomach but still alive. Someone does repeatedly hack at him with a hoe, trying to behead him. Every single time, the terrorist yells, Allahu akbar!

I haven’t seen these images and don’t want to. The words are more than enough for me.
