Where is your anger in the United States?
More than 1,400 victims of Hamas have been murdered, raped, tortured and kidnapped in 1997.
39 countries, without Israel, they feel the pain of innocent citizens becoming victims of victims Hamas Holocaust October 7, 2023. That day, Hamas suffered one of the most brutal terrorist attacks in the world since September 11, 2001. The United States is not unscathed. On the same day, dozens of American families experienced death notices or news that their loved ones were kidnapped by terrorists. On that tragic Saturday in 2023, 45 Americans were murdered and 12 Americans were kidnapped.
As an active FBI agent stationed in Israel from 2020 to 2024, I have witnessed first-hand how the October 7 tragedy affects American families. U.S. law designates the FBI as the primary agency for investigations of Americans killed or injured in terrorist attacks anywhere in the world, and the President’s policy directive designates the FBI as the primary agency for investigations related to kidnapped Americans anywhere in the world.

From October 2023 to the end of my tour in mid-2024, my responsibility is entirely focused on the hostage crisis. In this work, my colleagues and I work with our Israeli counterparts to gather intelligence about missing victims, seek justice for Hamas perpetrators, and provide comfort and answers to the victims’ families. We work tirelessly on behalf of victims of all ethnic groups, but our special responsibility is to American citizens. To this day, my colleagues continue to complete this task relentlessly.
Since returning to the United States, I am shocked that most Americans are unaware of the extent of suffering our own citizens have suffered and continue to endure it at Hamas’ hands. In this country, few people realize that four of the 12 Americans hijacked in Hamas were murdered on October 7, but their bodies were taken hostage anyway-they have not been sent back to their families for proper funerals. Despite lasting a short period of the news cycle, few fellow countrymen realized that a 23-year-old American was brutally murdered in a Gaza tunnel with five other innocent victims six months ago, a 23-year-old American who had been kidnapped shortly after part of his arm was blown up by a grenade.

The average American doesn’t remember the release of two American women hostages in late October 2023, or the release of two other women (including one child) in the “hostage deal” in November 2023. Despite this happening in February, there is relatively little general awareness of the release of two American men in the latest “hostage deal”. Americans need to know dozens of innocent hostages, many of whom died, and they remain in Hamas captivity in Gaza. One of these hostages was American, who is believed to be alive.
Surprisingly, the average American has no knowledge of the numerous American victims of the October 7 massacre of Hamas, but it is not surprising that the average American does not realize that Hamas has no charter, requiring the charter to destroy a country and a person, possess a place in the United States, and has been here for decades. Inside Hamas documents introduced as evidence in various federal criminal cases and FBI eavesdropping suggest that fundraising, lobbying, education, education and advocacy dissemination exists across the nation’s Hamas network, which dates back to the 1980s.

at present, Pro Hanmas students and faculty On the American university campuses, protests were held nationwide, waving Hamas’ flag, expressing support for Hamas and chanting Palestine from “river to sea.” This song is not a peaceful call for liberation, but a call to undermine Israel, taken directly from Hamas. These student and teacher protesters sometimes violently repeat Hamas mantra and spit fundamentally in front of our American victims. Americans have suffered from Hamas and continue to suffer, but we have tolerated the agenda of those who support these evildoers in our country. What will happen next? Will we begin to tolerate public anti-Semitic public figures in the United States who claim to be Hitler-loving Nazis?
Freedom of speech in the United States gives online influencers the right to anti-Semitism. It also trampled on memories of the victims in the name of October 7 as a loved one on the university campus. But human etiquette should prevail in this country.
In order to give human decency the upper hand, the United States needs to overwhelmingly understand that the horrors committed by Hamas on October 7 destroyed innocent American lives forever. It is one thing to do with a policy of peaceful protest that one person disagrees with, but celebrating the suffering of innocent victims of terror is completely different.

Don’t forget the 45 Americans who were murdered by Hamas on October 7, 2023. Don’t forget American hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin, He was murdered six months ago in the Gaza tunnel. Don’t forget that we have the bodies of four late Americans – Itay Chen, Omer Neutra, Gad Haggai and Judi Weinstein – still in Hamas captivity in Gaza. It is crucial that we don’t forget that we have an American who is considered alive – Edan Alexander – who is still under the horrific conditions of Hamas in Gaza. We need every innocent hostage now, including our Americans. America, I ask you again, where is your anger?
