Abu Obeida, the nom de guerre of Hamas’ spokesman for the terrorist group’s Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades military wing, told al Jazeera on Sunday that that Israeli troops faced death or capture.
His rhetoric appears to have toned down to the point that he sounds scared. Just two and a half years ago he boasted to a Los Angeles Times reporter: “We will turn Sderot into a ghost town.”
Listening to the Hamas spokesman’s Abu Obeida now sounds like a scared spokesman in hiding,
“The battle has just started and the enemy should endure the consequences and results. They should be ready for the bad news coming from the Gaza Strip.”
