New Scrutiny on Democratic Candidate for Senate in Maine After Revelation of His Record of Praising Hamas

Graham Platner is the Democrats leading candidate for Senate in Maine. In the latest poll, he’s carrying a 33-point lead (RCP). He’s also carrying water for Hamas, having praised the terror group’s successful attack on IDF troops that killed ten: “Looks like an all around well executed and successful small unit raid to me.” Jewish Insider: Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner repeatedly praised the tactics used by Hamas terrorists in comments made about a graphic video of a Hamas raid into Israel in 2014, in which terrorists killed at least five Israeli soldiers. In archived posts from his now-deleted Reddit profile under the username “P-Hustle,” Platner commented on a video post titled “Helmet Footage from Hamas cross-border raid,” which showed the attack on multiple Israeli soldiers….  According to a text description of the video and the raid shared online, the video includes footage of the shootings of several Israeli soldiers, at least one of whom is screaming as the terrorists attempt to kidnap him. “Looks like an all around well executed and successful small unit raid to me,” Platner wrote in 2014 on the Reddit forum r/CombatFootage, a discussion board for footage and photographs of past and current armed conflicts (Jewish Insider).
