Hamas’s October 7 Anniversary Surprise for Europe

Germany indicted seven suspected Hamas members on Friday for planning attacks against Jews and Jewish centers in Berlin and Vienna on Oct. 7, 2025, the two-year anniversary of the Hamas massacre of more than 1,200 people in Israel.

• The plan fell apart when three of the suspects were arrested while acquiring weapons on October 1. All are in custody awaiting trial.

This will embolden Germany not only to step up its fight against radical Islam but also to champion itself as a protector of Israel and the Jewish people.

The plot, which the indictment says high-ranking Hamas leaders ordered, is linked to the terrorist group’s efforts to build branches in Europe using Turkey.

• The attack would have marked a shift in the Palestinian terror organization’s abilities from “fundraising, propaganda and logistical activity” in Europe to launching attacks in Europe according to Politico’s reporting on the indictment, which is not public.

The suspects obtained 13 pistols, over 700 ammunition rounds and a fully automatic rifle for the attack. Weapons were supplied, in part, by an “international weapons-procurement network” that moved them through multiple European countries, Politico reported. A Hamas agent allegedly worked on coordinating part of the network from Lebanon.

Daniel 11:40 prophesies that Germany will dominate Europe and lead it to attack and destroy the head of radical Islam, Iran. News of Hamas-backed plots like this push Germany toward that clash.

Germany will seem like a protector of Israel and the Jewish people as it fights radical Islam. However, the Bible warns it is not. Germany will betray Israel and even temporarily ally with the Palestinians against it.
