Israeli interrogator Micha Kobi believes only one fate can befall Hamas’ leader Yahya Sinwar: “He must die”.
ore than three decades before orchestrating the October 7 terror attacks against Israel, then-up-and-coming Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar gave Israeli interrogators a cold-blooded insight into his world-view.
“He is trying to survive. He wants a ceasefire only because he wants to continue to lead Gaza. He will build Hamas again and make a massacre again,” Kobi tellsAdvertisement “We drove to the neighbourhood of Sheikh Radwan, and using a hoe I had in the car, we dug a hole. When we finished, we returned to the orchard to take the body and drove to the hole to bury him.”Born in 1962 in a Khan Younis refugee camp after his family was among the 750,000 Palestinians displaced in the 1948 war, Sinwar was one of the 520 Hamas members rounded up along with the group’s founder Sheikh Ahmed Yassin. He was convicted in 1989 and received four life sentences for his murders.
“ gave me the name of Sinwar. He told me that Sinwar killed 12 Palestinians suspected of co-operating with us. He told me that cut their heads and buried them.” “He said he wanted to kill me as interrogator. Of course, we took care. His hands were always behind him, not in front. We tied him.Kobi says if the Hamas leaders had not been arrested they would have carried out an October 7-style terror attack much sooner. He says he repeatedly warned Israeli prime ministers just how dangerous Hamas was as a force for terror, but these were ignored.. He and Ahmad Yassin and others wrote the charter of Hamas according to the Hitler principles.
