Israel Defense Forces reservist and Middle East resident Avi Abelow expressed strong concerns about Hamas’s public displays during hostage transfers, describing them as demonstrations of a deeply disturbing societal mindset.
Speaking on Newsmax’s “Wake Up America,” Abelow characterized Hamas’s actions with stark terminology. “I think it is clear we’re dealing with a very sick society,” Abelow said. “I personally call it an Islamo-Nazi society because they are totally exposing to the world for all to see quite clearly that they don’t only celebrate the actual killing. They celebrate torture. They celebrate the torturing of the psychological warfare they’re doing against Israeli society as well as the whole world.”

The IDF reservist emphasized the broader implications of these celebrations, noting similar demonstrations in Beirut. “And with the growing of these celebrations as well as in Beirut, with Nasrallah’s funeral screaming out ‘death to Israel,” it is clear that they are empowered and their evil is empowered.”
According to Abelow, these actions demand a decisive response from Israel to demonstrate that such behavior won’t be tolerated by civilized nations. He specifically addressed recent bus explosions in central Israel, drawing parallels to previous periods of violence and expressing relief that no casualties occurred during these incidents.
They told you it was Hamas who celebrated the killings of babies.
And that the Palestinians were not into it.

The military reservist acknowledged the current situation’s complexity while highlighting what he perceives as a stark contrast between different U.S. administrations’ approaches. He criticized the current administration’s policies, including what he described as funding decisions regarding Hamas and arms restrictions.
Looking ahead, Abelow expressed optimism about potential changes in U.S. support, suggesting that stronger backing would enable Israel to effectively counter terrorist threats. He emphasized that such actions would protect not only Israel but also other nations that value freedom.
