Eco-Terrorism: Fires Rage Across Israel as Hamas Calls on Palestinians to ‘Burn Everything’
Israel declares national emergency as Palestinian arsonists follow Hamas’ call to ‘Go Burn! Go Burn!’
With the remainder of Hamas’ terrorist force cornered by the Israeli military in Gaza, Palestinians have embarked on a campaign of arson, setting off massive wildfires across central and eastern Israel.
“Firefighting teams continued battling large wildfires across the Jerusalem Hills on Thursday morning, with 119 crews deployed across 11 active fronts in a race to contain the flames and protect nearby communities,” the Israel Hayom newspaper reported. “The fire has yet to be fully brought under control, but emergency officials report progress in containment efforts.”
As massive fires started by terrorists tear across Israel, Hamas on Telegram: “Burn whatever you can. Groves, forests, settler homes. Youth in Judea and Samaria, Jerusalem, and inside Israel…”

Israeli firefighters, first responders, and civilians, including two toddlers, were among those injured as Palestinian arsonists followed Hamas’s call to turn Israel “into a fire hell.”
“Since the fires broke out on Wednesday morning, at least 17 people have suffered injuries from smoke inhalation and minor trauma, including two toddlers,” the daily added. “Two firefighters were evacuated to the hospital.”
Hamas and other terrorist groups in Gaza have long claimed that Jerusalem should be their capital, as it is supposedly their most sacred city.
Today, as fires intensify, both Jews and Muslims are being forced to flee the city and its surroundings.

Israel declares national emergency as Palestinian arsonists follow Hamas’ call to ‘Go Burn! Go Burn!’
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared a national emergency as fires spread along the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv highway, forcing thousands of Israelis from nearby communities to leave their homes, media reports on Thursday confirm.
The fires were strategically set off to devastate Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria — also know as the West Bank, leaving Palestinian areas unscathed, the Israeli news reports say.
“A map circulating in Israeli security circles depicts the locations of the fires, almost all of which are marked on the Israeli side of the Green Line separating the West Bank from Israel and Gaza—not in the areas inhabited by Palestinians,” the Israeli news website Ynet News reported Thursday. “Hamas posted on social media a call for Palestinians in the West Bank and Israel to “burn whatever you can of groves, forests and settler homes” and “set their cars ablaze.”
🚨 HAPPENING NOW
Jerusalem, Israel 📍The devastation of the Jerusalem fires.
Hamas and the Palestinian Terror groups for years have tried to take Jerusalem from Israel as their own.

Bands of Palestinian arsonists were wreaking havoc across central and eastern Israel after Hamas urged them to “Go Burn! Go Burn!” forests, wildlife, and homes across Israel, the TV channel i24NEWS reported Thursday:
As violent fires are currently raging in Israel, Hamas published a message on Telegram on Wednesday calling on Palestinians to “burn everything they can in the groves, forests and settlers’ houses.”
“Youth of the West Bank, youth of Jerusalem, and those who are in Israel – set their cars on fire… Gaza awaits the revenge of the free people,” wrote the terrorist organization.
Earlier, the Telegram channel Jenin News Network posted a similar message accompanied by a photo of a masked person setting fire to a field, with a burning city in the background. The image was captioned with “The settlers’ houses will be reduced to ashes under the feet of the revolutionaries” and the hashtag “Burn the settlers’ houses.”
Many messages of the same kind have since spread on Palestinian social networks. “Let’s give them nightmares of the occupation, so they know that every day is a fight for resistance,” one message said. “Light the fires of freedom everywhere. We will not give up and will not abandon until we have burned every piece of stolen land.” The fires that are ravaging Israel have also been described as “flames of the flood,” in reference to the name given by Hamas to the massacre of October 7, “the Al-Aqsa Flood.”
Israel marks 77th Independence Day under the smoke cloud of Palestinian terror
Violent fires raged across the country as the Jewish State, on Wednesday, marked its 77th Independence Day, The Times of Israel reported:
Organizers of the annual Independence Day torch-lighting ceremony were forced to announce its cancellation on Wednesday, as many events were called off due to the risk posed by strong winds and rapidly spreading brush fires in the Jerusalem hills area west of the capital.
At the same time, families marking Memorial Day with visits to cemeteries in the Jerusalem area also had their plans disrupted, as the Defense Ministry urged them to avoid the area due to the out-of-control flames.
The fires in the Esthaol Forest erupted in the early afternoon and spread rapidly, as a heatwave accompanied by strong winds made it difficult for firefighters to bring the blaze under control.
In total, 105 firefighting teams were on the ground and 12 firefighting planes were battling blazes from above in the Jerusalem area by late Wednesday afternoon, most of them concentrated around five hotspots: Neve Shalom, Latrun Interchange, Latrun, Mesilat Zion and Canada Park.
After a memorial ceremony at the Latrun military memorial was interrupted by an evacuation order, the Defense Ministry put out a statement urging the public to refrain from visiting cemeteries in the Jerusalem area due to the risks posed by the spreading fires.
Hamas is asking their followers to set more fires in Israel.
They say "burn their land!". So they admit it's Jewish land.Palestinians were arrested for setting forest wildfires.
Pro-Palestinians are celebrating, overjoyed about burned forests in Israel.

Hamas’ history of eco-terrorism against Israel
This is not the first time Hamas has turned to ecological terrorism against Israel. Before the October 7 attack, the Gaza-based terrorist groups had been launching explosives-laden kites and balloons across the border into southern Israel, which triggered massive fires. The terrorist group launched two such eco-terrorism campaigns in 2018 and 2020.
Hamas cares little about Palestinian lives, let alone wildlife. In a disturbing incident reported by Legal Insurrection in July 2018, Hamas terrorists tied an incendiary device to a falcon in a bid to set fire to nearby Jewish communities.

“Hamas calls on supporters to burn everything.”
Q: What’s the difference between the Hamas terrorists in Israel and their supporters in this country?
A: Not much
Prayers for holy land. How long do tolerate Musselman troglodytes near civilized folks?
And still no blog tribute for Mr Horowitz in L e
L i Pardone me
I suppose the Palis haven’t figured out that Israel can set fires in the West Bank too.
wondered about that too
The Hamas brain trust at work.
Violent, low impulse control. easily led, and like to burn things down. A familiar theme…
Time for pali arsonists to suffer “work accidents.”
Gasoline + polymers = Napalm Apply liberal amounts to Hamas sympathizers and throw in MOABs for good measure.
IMO the arsonists should be shot on sight; and reciprocate. Deliver fires to Gaza – as in Dresden.
See an arsonist – shoot an arsonist
See a rock thrower – shoot a rock thrower
See a terrorist (gun or knife) – shoot a terrorist
Forget arresting, prosecuting, and jailing. Arabs will just take hostages to
get them released. Kill them dead.
I detest and abhor rock throwers as much as anyone, but you can’t shoot and kill someone who is throwing a rock. Any criminal prosecutor, or Judge, even those appointed by Trump, will tell you the same thing.
Yes, actually, you can. They are deadly weapons.
And the Palis don’t just throw them like a baseball; they use slings. And sling cast stones are VERY deadly. (Also, slings can be used to throw grenades and incendiary devices.)
Yes, shoot them.
(Also, I don’t care about the judges. This isn’t just self-defense, it’s war.)
It;s also Israel and not the US.
Slings were important skirmishing weapons in battle for thousands of years. They weren’t used because they’re not potentially lethal or incapable of inflicting grievous bodily harm.
You are so rarely right. This isn’t one of those times.
I not only can, I would. Rocks kill.
But, but Trump!!11!!11!
“I detest and abhor rock throwers as much as anyone…”
Assumes facts not in evidence.
“…but you can’t shoot and kill someone who is throwing a rock.”
Depends, dingus. If the “rock” was a chunk of concrete and they were throwing it off a bridge at cars, or at someone’s head, well yeah… you can shoot someone.
“Any criminal prosecutor, or Judge, even those appointed by Trump, will tell you the same thing.”
You retard. Did you read the comment? He’s referring to issues in Israel, not here. Your TDS makes you commit yet ANOTHER stupid unforced error.
“and they were throwing it off a bridge at cars”
I read about a case where teens were dropping rocks off an overpass, One went through a windshield, where a man hit it at 70MPH. It killed him.
The concrete off the bridge hit window and kill driver has happened several times.
Yes, you can. A rock can be a deadly weapon.
“I detest and abhor rock throwers as much as anyone”
Evidence is lacking.
JR loves throwing bombs though on the pages of the LI comment section.
The old saying is that Beduins turn greenery into desert.
Most of those calling themselves “Palestinians” descend from that tradition.
(Whereas the modern Israelis turn desert into greenery.)
The traditional Nomadic Beduin lifestyle is The Tragedy of The Commons writ large. The tribes tended to specialize in one of the big three herd animals, camels, sheep, goats, but they all held in common the tendency to overgraze – shrinking oasis’s and growing desert boundaries. Short-sightedly trading small & transient present gain for future “could have been” large and permanent gain. That mindset is the reason generations of billions in relief aid was spent on corruption and war instead of the intended bootstrap to the Palestinian folk. So it’s not surprising that the current generation is totally OK once again with destruction instead of construction.
Arabs missed out on intelligence genes, that has been compounded by extensive inbreeding.
I forgot who wrote about this at length in the 20th century but they observed that instead of calling the Arabs sons of the desert it would be more accurate to call them fathers of the desert.
This is why Israel just needs to finish the job in gaza. Using napalm
The job isn’t finished inGaza.
Its finished in Teran..
Tactical vs strategic.
I wouldn’t say my house is finished when the electrician walks away, but his job is.
Yep, cheap, easy to make.
Deport any caught to Gaza, including their families and extended families
So, does anyone support committing a Dresden on Gaza now?
It would be proportionate.
not sure there is much left to burn in gaza.
It’s not depopulated.
It should be depopulated to prepare it for Jews.
Dresden (or Osaka or Tokyo) can’t be replicated in most cities today. as all the major stick-built cities were burned to the ground in WW II.
The only problem is that fire has a nasty way of spreading. Worse, the land is incredibly dry right now & winds are high. If you’ve never been here, it’s hard to realize how close everything is to each other.
Israel’s supporters should ensure they have adequate stocks of white phosphorus.
My stockpile is in my neighbor’s basement. Too dangerous to have it in my own.
As a teen playing practical jokes, I used to dissolve phosphorus in carbon disulfide. I filled test tubes and capped them. Then through them at masonry surfaces. When the liquid evaporated the surface would smoke. People would throw water on it, putting it out. As soon as the water was gone it would start smoking again.
It was good when I gave up chemistry for astrophysics.
I was a chem major in college for 3.5 years. I and a classmate once tried to make TNT in his dorm room (never mine). We only managed to make DNT we figured, It had a pretty flame when burned but no boom.
In HS I had a friend (giant dude – became my friend when he picked up someone bullying me by the neck one-handed and told him to stop) who was into garage chemistry.
He actually figured out how to make nitroglycerine.
Was smart or lucky enuf not to blow himself or anyone else up – even if that kinda defeats the entire purpose of making nitroglycerine at home. 🫤🫤🫤🧨🧨🧨
Last I knew he had his own security company doing home installations of sensors and such.
Napalm.
Gaza.
Introduce the two.
Fire.
Spreads.
Gaza is right next door.
Fire
Does
Not
Respect
Borders.
Have water bombers going up and down the border. Build a firebreak. Put sprinklers along the border.
Savages being savage.
.
welllll there is one way to stop it before it starts
There is still the West Bank.
If the folks in the West Bank are complete retards they’re watching this and saying we don’t want none of that
Big if, as they say.
hamas has declared their intentions and are obviously following through
shoot them
