On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists murdered nearly 400 people at the Nova music festival, in a field in the desert in southern Israel. They kidnapped dozens more, taking them as hostages to Gaza, where they were tortured, sexually assaulted, and starved.
Nearly one-third of the victims of October 7 were killed at the festival. Most of them were young people who believed in peace, love and coexistence — just like the fans who flock to Coachella.
So it was beyond outrageous that The Strokesaired an anti-Israel, pro-Hamas videoduring their set at Coachella this weekend.
The video showed the demolition of Al-Israa University in Gaza, described as the “last university standing in Gaza.”
Actually, the incident displays the high moral standard upheld by the Israeli military.
The university was demolished in January 2024, just a few months into the intense fighting in Gaza.
Following criticism, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) investigated the demolition. It found that Hamas had “used the building and its surroundings for military activity.”
Under international law, that means the university was a legitimate target.
However, the IDF also reprimanded the officer who ordered the demolition, saying he had not followed proper approval procedures.
The IDF showed that it is committed to holding its own leaders responsible for following the letter of the law.
