Israel’s ambassador to Belgium joined local politicians in condemning a protest in Brussels where two girls were filmed praising Hamas leaders in an Arabic-language song while sitting on the shoulders of keffiyeh-clad men.
“The future generation. Tell me who you admire, tell me who you teach your children to glorify, and I tell you who you are,” wrote Idit Rosenzweig-Abu, the Israeli ambassador. The video, she wrote in her post on X Tuesday, was filmed in central Brussels last week.
It shows the girls singing: “Glory to all our martyrs, glory to Yahya Sinwar , glory to Abu Hamza ,” a reference to Hamas’s leader, whom Israeli killed in October, and Naji Abu Saif, a leader of Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s Al-Quds Brigades, who was killed in March.
They praised also Walid Nimer As’aad D
