Hamas: ‘IDF-Trained Dolphin’ Equipped With ‘Device’ Is Fishing For Information

9

JERUSALEM (JNS) – A representative from Hamas’s military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, made an extraordinary claim in a video this week, stating that the terrorist organization discovered a dolphin trained by the Israel Defense Forces to track Hamas naval forces, according to a report by I24 on Wednesday.

Citing the Jerusalem-based Al-Quds Arabic newspaper, the report noted the spokesperson as saying that the dolphin was also equipped with “a device” that was subsequently displayed later in the video.

It also stated that “dolphins have historically been used by the Russian and U.S. militaries to locate underwater mines.”

In 2015, Hamas claimed that it uncovered a “spy dolphin” that was allegedly carrying “surveillance equipment” placed on it by the Israeli military, the BBC reported at the time.

Hamas said at the time that its commandos noticed the dolphin making “suspicious movements” near their training zone before capturing the animal.

In 2013, the Hezbollah-affiliated Al-Manar television channel claimed that a bird employed by Israel to spy on targets in Lebanon had been captured on its territory.

Germany’s DW website stated that in 2010, unnamed Egyptian officials claimed that Israel’s intelligence agency, Mossad, “trained sharks to attack tourists.”

No wonder Israel just ordered a ton of herring. And here I thought it was for a big kiddush.

There’s an entire armada of trained dolphins monitoring the Hamas naval forces. The are to supplement the birds who’ve been spying on Hamas for years. There’s no way they call tell which birds and dolphins are in the service of the Israelis. If captured they will not talk.

Dolphins are extremely intelligent mammals, and have saved humans from drowning. They can be trained by humans, as the U.S. military has used them, in the past. In 2010, there were foreign tourists who had been attacked and killed by sharks off the beach in Sharm El Sheikh. It was highly unusual for such attacks to occur in that area, and as a result, thourists were scared away, and the Egyptian economy, lost a lot of hotel revenue. The Egyptians were incensed, and used the Mossad as a scapegoat, alleging “that the sharks were trained to kill the swimmers near the large resorts in that area”. Sharks are not dolphins; there is no way that a large vicious shark can be trained by humans, and hence, it was a preposterous claim.

Hamas is going to try the same.

Strap a suicide belt and send it over. Problem is, they usually come back home. Kaboom.
