Unlike the absurd “Queers for Palestine,” a group that advocates for the Palestinian leadership and its agenda, the “Queer in Gaza” campaign aims to tell the truth about how gays are actually treated by Hamas. And it’s worthwhile to remember that such treatment toward gays is not just by Hamas, but by the Palestinian leadership; also, any group or country that adheres to the sharia persecutes gays.
Some of facts put forth by Queer in Gaza:
- Living as a Queer person in Gaza is punishable by torture and death by Hamas, the rulers of Gaza.
- There is no transgender population in Gaza, because any trans person who lives openly will be hunted down by Hamas.
- Israel grants asylum rights to LGBT Palestinians who face death in Gaza and the Palestinian Territories; there are hundreds of Queer Palestinians living safely in Israel right now, who will face death if they are sent back to Gaza or the Palestinian Territories.
“Richard Grenell, who was the first openly gay member of a presidential cabinet during the Trump presidency, told The Jerusalem Post that ‘It’s shameful for the gay community in America to ignore the reality of what gays in the Middle East face.” It isn’t only the gay community that ignores “the reality of what gays in the Middle East face”; it is also hardcore feminists who claim to care about the well-being of women, but ignore the reality of women being treated as inferiors in Islam.
“’Queer in Gaza’ campaign aims to raise awareness about Hamas homophobia,” by Benjamin Weinthal, Jerusalem Post, March 7, 2024:
A new campaign launched a website to raise awareness about the Hamas terrorist movement’s lethal actions targeting the persecuted LGBTQ+ community in the Gaza Strip.
The Equality Campaign Inc. created a website called “Queer in Gaza” that states “Learn the Facts about Hamas’ treatment of LGBT Palestinians.”
The website declares, “Living as a Queer person in Gaza is punishable by torture and death by Hamas, the rulers of Gaza,” and “There is no transgender population in Gaza because any trans person who lives openly will be hunted down by Hamas.”
The former acting director of US National Intelligence, Richard Grenell, who was the first openly gay member of a presidential cabinet during the Trump presidency, told The Jerusalem Post that “It’s shameful for the gay community in America to ignore the reality of what gays in the Middle East face….

Seems strange that persons behaving well and naturally in Western countries get tortured, imprisoned or even killed in Islamic countries. What does that tell us ?
Don Davenport says
It won’t matter. The bond between the left and Islam is too strong to tarnish. The Pulse nightclub was a perfect example.
I can think of the many times I pointed out to others the plight of the alphabet people under sharia law only to be accused of hate and “Islamophobia”.
And often it was the rainbow people themselves doing the accusing.
Hoi Polloi says
It’s fascinating how often they counter truth about islam with charges of hate. No effort to deal with the truth of islam whatsoever, just charges of hate and phobia. It’s as if their string was pulled.

Some sanity and truth. I thought Richard Grenell was one of Trump’s best choices. I hope more of his administration is made up of quality personnel and non-swamp truthtellers this next round. That is, if we don’t get another stolen election and can see what he’d do with another term.
SKA says
The Left has no real human compassion. Even its feminists are ready to rationalize and to defend the rapes of Israeli women in the name of “resistance.”
James Lincoln says
SKA,
True.
They also preach tolerance, all the while being intolerant themselves.
Keith O says
Passed this website on to a lesbian I now,
The stunned response was very quick to come, she said she had no idea it is that bad.
Maybe a reality check can be delivered via this site?
James Lincoln says
At least she didn’t accuse you of being a hate filled islamophobe, Keith O.

Glad to hear that you were able to enlighten your friend, Keith.
I had a friend who was Gay and Counter-Jihadist. He was very frustrated that so many people he knew were in deep denial about Islam.
James Lincoln says
Glad to see that at least some gays are getting the message, gravenimage.
