Hamas leaders, retired US officials, academics, policymakers convene in pro-Oct. 7 conference

A conference commending Hamas’s October 7 massacre convened in Istanbul this week, hosting an array of terrorist leaders, policymakers, and academics, with several antisemitic expressions being sounded on stage.

The conference was titled “Palestine—’ Toufan Al-Aqsa’ and Regional and International Orders—Impact, Implications, and Future Directions.”

‘Toufan Al-Aqsa’ or Flood of Al-Aqsa is the name given by Hamas for its October 7 massacre of 1,200 Israelis and the kidnapping of 250 hostages between the ages of 9 and 85.

One of the speakers who led the opening remarks was Hamas official Osama Hamdan. He lauded the massacre and commended the ‘unapologetic’ Jihad, prophesying a future in which Israel does not appear on the map.
