In this explosive first episode of The Sacred War Trilogy, we go beyond headlines and ask the question most avoid: What religious beliefs inspired the October 7 Hamas attacks?

Uncover the Islamic theology, jihadist ideology, and apocalyptic eschatology that drive Hamas and its war against Israel. This episode draws directly from:

The Hamas Charter
The Hadith of the Trees and Stones
Recent sermons from jihadist clerics
And religious doctrine framing genocide as sacred duty

This isn’t about land. It’s about a divine war against Jews, rooted in scripture and prophecy.

We challenge the silence of Western media and call out the moral cowardice of those who treat this as a territorial dispute. This is theological antisemitism—weaponized.
