Saleh al-Jafarawi, a social media influencer in the Gaza Strip who became well-known to Israelis and others after cheering Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attack, was killed Sunday during armed clashes between Hamas and Palestinian militias in Gaza City.

Footage circulating online showed his body.

So ended up being killed during armed clash between Hamas and other armed Palestinian militia. Seems they are killing one another off

Good.

He gained wide attention with a video he recorded on October 7, 2023, in which he praised Hamas’s attack. Later in the war, he filmed himself crying in reaction to Israel’s airstrikes. Pro-Israel activists juxtaposed the two videos and gave him the nickname “Mr. FAFO” (an acronym for “fuck around and find out.”)

Not familiar with the guy but anyone who cheered on 7/10 gets no sympathy from me.

Interesting how he profiteered from the suffering.

"In the following weeks, videos went viral in which Jafarawi appeared to impersonate a doctor, a wounded patient, a fighter, a journalist, and people of other roles, drawing widespread mockery among pro-Israel figures for what appeared to be lazy propaganda.

During the war, Jafarawi was accused in social media reports of pocketing millions of dollars he had raised as donations for Gaza residents."

Sadly, some of his fake videos were claimed to be factual and obviously people did believe him.

Is it really bad to say at least his final video playing a dead Hamas supporter is factual. He really died this time.

Some people will probably say that’s really bad but who cares

Jawwwwwwwwaaaaaaawaaaaa/ Jafaawi
"was glorified in an Instagram post by US activist group Students for Justice in Palestine, which shared an image of the influencer with the caption: “Death to the occupation. Death to Zionism. Death to collaborators.”

New York-based Within Our Lifetime, another prominent anti-Israel protest group, also mourned the Gazan social media personality, asserting on X that he was “murdered earlier today by zionist collaborators in Gaza after having a target on his back by the occupation for months"

Some students support the most abhorrent people but hey its trendy.

Just seen a photo of him with his “press jacket” on.

Some people are incredibly naive 🤦‍♀️

Yes, he was 'press' also an influencer and a Hamas supporter and some students loved him. It appears possible to be all three. Who'd have known 😳 Multi tasking all round horrible man. Also stole millions from Palestinian people. But like his beloved Hamas really.

I’m confused. Cheering the death of someone we find odious is ok now?

Let's hope they keep up the good work 👍🏻

Are we cheering the deaths of people we don't like now?

The militia that Netanyahu armed.

It is when you support Israel on this board.

If you wish. It's your conscience to live with.

I won't grieve him for the mischief he made, but I note that he was somebody's son, very close in age to my own.

Yes some people are very naive. You just said you don't know him but you are now celebrating his death.

Yes. That's why I said 'is it bad'. I know the answer. I don't wish death on anyone. Shame HD couldn't be captured. But it wasn't Israelis who killed him. He was killed by other Palestinians.

It's your conscience to live with.

Well said. Maybe some people on this thread will read and ponder on it too.

Tell the people who started this thread.

I don't think some people are even glad the war is over if this is what they choose to focus on today of all days.
