DOJ charges senior Hamas leaders over involvement in Americans' deaths during Oct. 7 attack on Israel
The Justice Department unsealed charges Tuesday targeting multiple senior members of Hamas' leadership for their alleged involvement in the kidnapping and murdering of Americans during the terror group's Oct. 7 attack on Israel.
The criminal complaint, unsealed in the Southern District of New York, names six members of Hamas' leadership structure and details extensively their alleged terrorist activities on behalf of the group ....
Garland said. "The Justice Department has a long memory. We will pursue the terrorists responsible for murdering Americans -- and those who illegally provide them with material support -- for the rest of their lives."
I'm really glad they are doing this. I'm not sure what this will mean, since some of them may be hard to reach, but in today's State Dept press briefing ...
Matt Miller made some interesting observations when a reporter asked about justice for Hamas leaders (at 39:50).
Matt said that US policy was usually to apprehend terrorists and bring them to trial in the US, but that wasn't always possible, so they sometimes had to pursue other means to bring them to justice. The reporter then mentioned Osama bin Laden (assassinated by the US military). Matt replied, "Correct, and many others over the years".
So. It's not just Israel who is after them now.
