Hamas leader says Soleimani's American killers were "loyal to the Jews"

On Monday, Hamas sponsored a memorial service for the first anniversary of the assassination of Iran's Quds Force leaders Qassem Soleiman by US forces.

Prominent personalities from Hamas and Islamic Jihad spoke and praised Soleimani, emphasizing how much he gave those groups support in weapons and paying their salaries.

Hamas elder statesman Mahmoud al-Zahar let some antisemitism slip in his statement. He said,  “[Soleimani] was killed by a Christian Zionist, an enemy of God and His Messenger, an enemy of Islam and Muslims, loyal to the Jews, and an enemy of his people and world peace.”

In the middle of a list of insults about Soleimani's killers, between "enemy of Muslims" and "enemy of his people," comes "loyal to the Jews."

It would be hard to argue that this is anything other than derogatory.
