Hamas Celebrates 29th Anniversary with a Video Depicting Development of its Terror Activity

A video celebrating the 29th anniversary of the establishment of Hamas was broadcast on the organization's Al-Aqsa TV channel on December 15. It opens with a young boy - representing the organization in its early years - throwing stones at an Israeli soldier in the 1987 Intifada. As he progresses through various landmarks, including the 2000 Al-Aqsa Intifada and the 2005 Al-Quds Intifada, he turns into a fully grown militant, utilizing more sophisticated weapons, including rifles, missiles, and tunnels. The video culminates with a signpost reading "The Liberation," as the militant takes the final stretch toward the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
