Khaled Al-Batsh, member of Islamic Jihad's "political bureau," said, “The assassination of any of the leaders of the resistance, led by Commander Al-Sinwar, will open the gates of hell to the enemy."
Yawn.
2017 was the last time I listed some of the threats of Palestinians to open the gates of hell if Israel (or the US, or UNRWA) does something they don't like. All of them have one thing in common: nothing happened.
Since then....
Later in 2017, Hamas warned that Trump recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's' capital would "open the gates of hell."
In 2019, Jordan warned that the Trump peace plan would "open the gates of hell."
Also that year, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine - which is linked to the six NGOs that are being supported by international human rights organizations - warned that they would "open the gates of hell" if the murderer of Rina Shnerb was harmed.
In December 2019, after Israel assassinated Islamic Jihad leader Baha Abu Al-Ata , the group said "Israel had opened the gates of hell."
In 2020, Palestinian factions warned that the US "opened the gates of hell" by assassinating Qassem Soleimani.
In March, Hamas warned that anything Israel does in Jerusalem will "open the gates of hell."
In March, Hamas warned that anything Israel does in Jerusalem will "open the gates of hell."
Of course Israel should assassinate Sinwar. He is directly inciting murders and is taking responsibility for them.
And, as a reminder, in 2019:
The far-right politician Naftali Bennett has accused Netanyahu of failing against Hamas and said he would instead “open the gates of hell”.
Sounds like a campaign promise to me.
