'I'm responsible for your hell': Ben-Gvir threatens Hamas terrorist behind 1996 bus bombings
In a video posted on X/Twitter, Ben-Gvir told the terrorist, Hassan Salameh, that he had protested after the 1996 terror attacks against the 18 bus line in Jerusalem, which Salameh had helped plan.
National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir threatened an imprisoned Hamas terrorist named Hassan Salameh in a video posted on social media. Ben-Gvir told Salameh that he wanted to kill him and that he was responsible for putting him in Hell. The minister referenced the 1996 terror attacks on Jerusalem's bus line, during which Salameh was alleged to have played a role in planning and carrying out the attacks that resulted in the deaths of 48 people, including children, women, men, and soldiers.
Ben-Gvir said he protested against such violence when he was younger and now he was closing the circle. Salameh reportedly trembled and was terrified in his meeting with Ben-Gvir, who claimed he had led a policy that turned his life into Hell. The minister vowed to ensure that murderers like Salameh are put to death and advance the emigration policy from Gaza and Judea and Samaria.
Hamas responded by stating that they and their prisoners were not intimidated by Ben-Gvir, and that he was responsible for further crimes against prisoners.
