Thousands of Zionist Israelis get cellphone threats from Al-Qassam Brigades

The Hebrew media said that thousands of Israelis, including officials and journalists, received threat text messages on their cellphones from Al-Qassam Brigades of Hamas.

According to Maariv newspaper, some of these text messages read, “Hamas chose you to be the next Gilad Shalit,” “Hamas vowed to avenge and there would be vengeance,” and “In the next war, all Palestine will be restored and Al-Qassam rockets are there waiting for you, but if you want to survive, you have to leave our land.”

The newspaper added that Al-Qassam Brigades of Hamas was able to infiltrate an Israeli website and send text messages to thousands of cellphone numbers, in addition to emails to some journalists who deal with the Israeli army.

In another incident, Al-Qassam Brigades disclosed on Saturday a video recording showing Israeli war minister Moshe Ya’alon in the range of Al-Qassam sniper fire as he was visiting a border area near the Gaza Strip.

Political analysts described these incidents as part of the psychological warfare being waged by Al-Qassam Brigades against the Israeli occupation.
