The LibsofTikTok account shared a video of the game with the caption: “GRAPHIC: Video game available on @Steam allows players to simulate being a Hamas te*ro*ist who k*lls Jews in the Old City of Jerusalem while shouting ‘Allahu Akbar.’ Dozens of comments support calling for the g*noc*de of Jews. This is available for your kids to play:”
WARNING: HIGHLY GRAPHIC VIDEO CONTENT
According to the Israeli newspaper, Haaretz, the game’s developer, Nidal Nijm recently shared messages on social media criticizing Israel and Jewish individuals. “This is the fate of all of those who invaded our homeland #Palestine! Beware oh #Zionists, the Lions of #JeninCamp are coming to you,” Nijm said in one recent post, Haaretz reported.

Nijm told Newsweek on Wednesday, “What is happening in Gaza now has made many people “wake up” and see who are the real terrorists. It is not about religion or politics anymore, it is about humanity. No one accepts the slaughtering of small children, women, elderly and civilians, as Israel is doing by willingly dropping bombs over hospitals, schools, residential buildings and so on.”
“So terrorism is a very subjective matter. I do not see Palestinian Resistance as Terrorism, rather, I see Israeli Soldiers as the biggest terrorists of this whole world,” Nijm said.
The game, “Fursan al-Aqsa: The Knights of the Al-Aqsa Mosque”, is currently playable on Steam. In the game’s description, a disclaimer states “THIS GAME DOES NOT PROMOTE “TERRORISM”, ANTISEMITISM, HATE AGAINST JEWS OR ANY OTHER GROUP, THIS IS A MESSAGE OF PROTEST AGAINST THE ISRAELI MILITARY OCCUPATION OF THE PALESTINIAN LANDS. FURSAN AL-AQSA IS A VIDEO GAME ABOUT WAR LIKE MANY OTHER GAMES HERE ON STEAM (SIX DAYS IN FALLUJAH, CALL OF DUTY AND OTHERS).”
A number of social media users criticized Steam for allowing the game on the platform.
“Please remove Fursan al-Aqsa: The Knights of the Al-Aqsa Mosque:” X user @Lion2Ya wrote.
Another X user said, “I don’t use Steam anymore. I have a couple games but I won’t be bothering with them now.”
According to Newsweek, the game was originally released in April 2022, but has gained attention recently due to the current situation in Israel.
Video games have been doing this and more for a long time. They are becoming more and more real with latest graphics making it seem real.
He deserves the death penalty for advocating hate and killing of Jews.

These video game developers should be lambastard by their reviewers.
Maybe next version will allow them to behead babies as Hamas did !

If it’s only a game, who cares. Does the game allow for the IDF to blow the players’ heads off, which is what usually happens? If not, the players are in for a very rude awakening if they try it IRL.
