Online footage said to show Hamas shooting, beating Gazans accused of stealing food

Footage from the Gaza Strip circulating on social media shows armed men shooting and beating bound individuals.
Users claim that these are Hamas members targeting those suspected of stealing food.
A Palestinian website recently reported that Hamas has reestablished a unit that previously operated in Gaza to enforce order, in light of increasing theft due to the food shortage in the Strip.
Horrifying; a new video of Hamas thugs torturing a starving Gazan for allegedly stealing food. Barbaric, inhuman, routine.
And then comes a Western leftist telling us not to speak ill of the “freedom fighters.”
