Hamas’ initial attack on Israel was uniquely brutal and cruel. Are drugs partially to blame for this tragedy?

From USA Today [W]ere Hamas terrorists high on the synthetic stimulant Captagon when they attacked Israel on Oct. 7, brutally killing more than 1,400 people and kidnapping at least 220 more? …

Officially, the Israeli military declined to confirm or deny the use of Captagon by Hamas. “We can’t comment on this matter,” a spokesperson told USA TODAY.

But the Israeli security officials said small bags of the drug … were found along with bullets stashed in the pockets of clothes and tactical gear worn by some of the militants who stormed two dozen communities along Israel’s southern border with the Gaza Strip. …

And they said the highly addictive amphetamine used throughout the Middle East … also was found on some of the Hamas members who were captured. …

For years, Captagon has been a staple among Islamic State fighters, especially in Iraq and Syria, because it gives them almost superhuman powers — including the ability to stay awake, calm and focused for days on end without food, said Carmit Valensi, a narcoterrorism expert and former senior adviser in Israel’s Intelligence corps.

I don’t see how a human being could be as brutal & inhumane as Hamas was/is without being on something! While taking “captagon” doesn’t excuse the behavior of Hamas it does make it more understandable. “Father, I am thankful for Israeli security officials. Please give them wisdom at every turn to defend themselves against propaganda & anti-semitism that is coming their way. Help Joe Biden to defend Israel as promised. You can turn the hearts of Kings. Joe Biden is presently in the Oval Office. Speak to his heart. He who blesses Israel will be blessed. Surely he wants our nation to be blessed! Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on thee. In God We Trust. In Jesus name, Amen.”

    Before they had access to this drug, they were brutally killing Jews in “Palestine” prior to 1948, and it included things like mutilation and rape, and the killing of children.

    Americans live in a bubble when it comes to how war is done in other parts of the World. Horrible atrocities were actually common in Wars in history. In the Balkans, during WW2, even the Nazis were horrified by what their allies, the Croatians, were doing to Serbs – enough so that they wrote back to Berlin about it. Partisans in the Balkans entered a village where most of the people were ethnically either Hungarian or German and they put the people to death by putting them through a sawmill alive and even at least one person was skinned alive. (causing one of the female Partisan fighters to pass out).

    Humans don’t need drugs to do horrible things. And they don’t need to be “crazy”. God wiped out most of the human race back in Noah’s time because of their violence and wickedness. Never underestimate the evil of human beings.
