Brandeis University Professor Ilan Troen said his daughter Deborah and son-in-law Shlomi were killed by Hamas militants near Be'er Sheva, Israel.
An Israeli studies professor spoke out to FOX News after his daughter and son-in-law were killed by Palestinian Hamas militants as they went door-to-door near Be'er Sheva intentionally murdering Israeli civilians. Ilan Trone, who previously taught at Brandeis University and the University of Missouri, said it is a misnomer to call the violent conflict a 'war' in the traditional sense, given how his family and hundreds of others in Israel have been affected.
He said many people 'thoroughly planned and expected' an eventual attack from the Iran-backed Hamas terror group. He said both Hamas and Iran are well-experienced at hostage-taking, saying that former President Jimmy Carter knows that fact well. Iranian militant students took over the U.S. embassy in Tehran and held those inside captive for 444 days, until moments after former President Ronald Reagan was sworn-in on January 20, 1981.
