HAMAS/ISRAEL Hate CRIMES- 3 Palestinian Students Shot by White Man in Vermont
Irish Girl 9, Taken Hostage, Was In Sheer Terror as HAMAS Monsters Raid Gaza Kids Sleepover
Thomas Hand has issued a heartwrenching appeal in London in a bid to get his daughter Emily back after she was taken hostage by Hamas - the little girl turned nine last week
BBC 20 NOV 2023
The dad of a nine-year-old Irish-Israeli girl taken hostage by Hamas militants at a sleepover today spoke in anguish of the "sheer terror" his daughter was facing at the hands of "bloody monsters”.
Thomas Hand, the dad of Emily Hand, begged: “Help us to get her back please, " saying she was a victim of extremists who'd "gone way outside the rules of combat.”
Mr Hand is the member of one of the families of two hostages being held by Hamas inside Gaza who came to London this morning to emotionally plead for their release.
He joined Iris Haim, the mum of 28-year-old Yotam Haim, in making an appeal for them to be freed and attacked the “evil” Hamas gunmen who took them. Their children were taken 45 days ago and are among 240 hostages. It was Emily’s 9th birthday on Friday.
She was on a sleepover with a friend on October 7th when she was abducted as Hamas militants launched surprise raids across the border into Israel, slaughtering killing 1,200 Israelis and taking hostages.
Since the attack, Israel has responded by a massive military campaign that has devastated Gaza, killing 13,000 people according to the Hamas-run health ministry, and displacing thousands more.
Thomas and Iris came to the Israeli embassy in London as the campaign to free some of the hostages continues to grow. Thomas, 63, wearing a black tee shirt which urged: “Bring them Home NOW!” said: “I don’t know how a human being could be so evil. They had evil in their hearts.
They were slaughtering, raping and dismembering. I was shaking with fear. At some point in the day they kidnapped my little daughter Emily who was at a sleepover. They took her away. They took her on their trucks and off to Gaza.”
In a moving appeal, Thomas continued: “Help us to get her back please. Help us get them all back. You don’t know if she’s being fed or watered or what about the toilet. She probably doesn’t even have to a toothbrush. But the sheer terror of a nine year old girl down in those dark tunnels. Sheer terror, panic every hour of every day.
UPDATE;
Father Says His Young Daughter Was Killed by Hamas in Gaza
A father broke down as he admitted that he was relieved to hear news of his young daughter's death at the hands of Hamas.
Thomas Hand said he smiled because "that was the best news of the possibilities". Mr Hand said the alternative was that she would be held in Gaza by Hamas and kept in a dark room with no food or water.
