INCREDIBLE: In response to questioning by Sam Husseini about Israel's "Hannibal Directive" — particularly regarding its use on Oct 7 and/or against US citizens — Miller claims that he's NEVER HEARD OF IT!

Matt Miller is the Spokesperson for the State Department The State Department is responsible for ensuring weapons provided to foreign nations are used properly. Also for implementation of us Foreign Policy: One would think a country having a policy that requires they use US weapons to kill civilians would be something the state department should be aware of

"We're supposed to give the instructions when there's a kidnapping event, the order is to kill the terrorist and the soldier together" Another confirmation of the implementation of Hannibal Directive, this time by released POW Ori Megidish, who recently said in an interview that she (and obviously the other observers as well) was trained to use the directive in case of a soldier getting captured. For those who do not know, the infamous directive was supposedly cancelled in 2017, but as we all know now, it was still very much in use on 7 October, 2023. Not only soldiers but also civilians were killed by the Israeli army in an attempt to prevent their capture. The interview aired on Uvda, Channel 12, May 9th.

WATCH: Journalist Sam Husseini confronts the State Dept on their disingenuous condemnation of “political violence in all of its forms” and “in any country” (re: Trump) Shortly after making those remarks, Miller suggested that Israel's recent massacre of 90+ Palestinians at the al-Mawasi camp, a supposed “safe zone,” should further motivate Hamas in “negotiations for a ceasefire.” Sam: “Didn't you just justify political violence?”

THE HANNIBAL DIRECTIVE HISTORY AND HOW IT WAS ACTIVATED DURING OCT. 7TH 🇮🇱🇵🇸 The Hannibal Directive, a controversial Israeli military policy introduced in 1986, was initially developed by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in response to the capture of three soldiers by Hezbollah in Lebanon. Named after the Carthaginian general Hannibal, who chose death over capture, the directive aimed to prevent the abduction of Israeli soldiers by authorizing the use of maximum force, even if it risked the lives of the captured soldiers themselves. Drafted by Northern Command leaders following a series of costly prisoner exchanges—viewed as unfavorable to Israel—the policy reflected a strategic preference for thwarting enemy captures over preserving the lives of hostages, prioritizing national security and deterrence over individual safety. Kept secret for years under military censorship, the directive emerged from a context of asymmetric warfare, where captured soldiers could be leveraged for significant political concessions, as seen in exchanges like the 1985 Ahmad Jibril deal. Over time, its use sparked ethical debates, with critics arguing it violated the IDF’s moral code, leading to its official revocation in 2016 by then-Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot, though questions lingered about whether it was ever fully abandoned. On October 7, 2023, during Hamas’s attack on southern Israel, evidence suggests the Hannibal Directive was reactivated and expanded beyond its original scope. As Palestinian fighters breached Israeli borders, targeting military bases and settlements, the IDF faced chaos and uncertainty about the scale of abductions. Reports from Israeli media, including a detailed Haaretz investigation, indicate that the directive was invoked as early as 7:18 a.m. at the Erez crossing, with orders to use drones, helicopters, and tanks to prevent vehicles—potentially carrying Israeli captives—from returning to Gaza. A blanket order at 11:22 a.m. stated, “Not a single vehicle can return to Gaza,” implying a willingness to sacrifice civilians and soldiers alike to foil Hamas’s objectives. Testimonies from survivors, such as those from Kibbutz Be’eri, where tank shells killed hostages, and accounts of helicopter fire on fleeing civilians, align with admissions from former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant in 2025, who confirmed its “tactical” use in some areas.

the sister of an Israeli prisoner in Gaza went on Israeli TV to say her government "is enacting the Hannibal directive on our citizens, they are annihilating them", confirming again that the regime is intentionally killing its own people. This won't be reported in Western media

Five months ago, I laid out, in detail, evidence that Israel was intentionally killing its own citizens -- aka the Hannibal Directive. In the clip below, I strenuosity advocated for Israeli hostages who reportedly were being killed by Israel. I was later fired after being accused of disrespecting said hostages.

More lies debunked: Israel's propaganda network and internet Hasbara warriors have insisted for months that Hamas was responsible for the massive structural & fire damage inflicted on October 7th. That lie is now decisively put to rest. 👉Meanwhile: there is still no footage or evidence of mass rapés or beheaded babies.

Mainstream media in NATO countries thought you were stupid enough to believe that Hamas, the militia of an open-air concentration camp with nothing but light arms, caused this level of destruction on October 7th Now, mainstream media, a year after independent media outlets reported it, have learned about the Hannibal Directive and only now report that Israeli helicopter gunships unloaded their bullets and rockets on anything that moved in a mass application of the directive to prevent Israelis being taken hostage by Hamas, who would then be used in hostage negotiations to free the thousands of Palestinian prisoners

Israel’s Knesset has approved a bill criminalising denial of Israel’s version of events of October 7th, those who break this law could face 5 years in prison. What is Israel’s version of events? That the militia of an open-air concentration camp with nothing but light arms, caused this level of destruction on October 7th. Thanks to brave reporting from independent media in the West and some Israeli journalists, we know that Israel implemented the Hannibal Directive, where Israeli helicopter gunships unloaded their bullets and rockets on anything that moved in a mass application of the directive to prevent Israelis being taken hostage by Hamas, who would then be used in hostage negotiations to free the thousands of Palestinian prisoners. The now debunked mass rape claims are also now enshrined in law, meaning questioning these debunked claims, or even saying that they have been debunked, could land you in prison in Israel.

October 7’s Sanitized Story Just Cracked Open, And the Footage Is Damning For years, Americans were fed a heavily sanitized version of what really happened on October 7. One of the most advanced military and intelligence apparatuses on Earth stood down for seven hours while its own citizens were slaughtered and taken hostage by Hamas. The Hannibal Directive, once dismissed as a fringe conspiracy theory, is now being confirmed as fact. The burned cars, flattened homes, and devastating human toll that were used to justify Israel’s military response, to justify mass devastation in Gaza, are now being confirmed as engineered by the Israeli government itself. A new documentary is now surfacing footage of senior Israeli officials appearing to coordinate a mass Hannibal event in real time. In the opening hours of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, while speaking with Israel’s Police Chief Kobi Shabtai, a senior officer is heard calling to implement the Hannibal Directive, ordering Gaza destroyed along with the Israeli captives still inside. Minister Itamar Ben Gvir then walks in and orders the camera turned off. Charlie Kirk, shortly before his assassination, questioned: “Was there a stand-down order given by Israel on Oct. 7th? Six hours to respond? I don’t believe it. They’re going to ethnically cleanse Gaza.” The new footage now proves these questions weren't out of bounds.
