  • The headline is clickbait since you don’t even need to get past the paywall to see that “The website does not appear to be linked to Hamas”. That domain is registered under Wix.Com Ltd., an Israeli software company. There is no hacking involved here, just an Israeli site masquerading as a Hamas site gloating with attrocities.

    I think that this is part of a propaganda effort by Israel to capitalize on the October 7th attacks by maximising the emotional response from it. It’s all in English, so clearly directed at western audiences. It’s also quite on the nose with the caricaturistic portrayal of evil terrorist baby killers who do not understand PR.

    If an actual Hamas site was hacked by Israelis, I’d expect the hackers to flaunt their victory by posting something the islamists clearly wouldn’t (like idk pictures of bacon, a woman’s ankles or maybe some dudes kissing).

    As for an actual Hamas site, I’d expect a lot less displays of gore caused by Hamas and a lot more displays of gore caused by the IDF.
