I actually can't find any public statements of him saying this.

It's referenced in "Times of Israel" [1] that, "According to MEMRI, in December 2023, Hamdi called to “celebrate the victory” of October 7 and asked his audience “how many of you felt euphoria” when they heard of the Hamas onslaught in which terrorists killed some 1,200 people and took 251 hostages."

However, their hyperlink in the word "called" points to a MEMRI report that requires a request to view [2]. Do you happen to have any easily-accessible, non-walled content or reporting of Hamdi saying those things?

The second link works for me, and indeed shows him saying "celebrate the victory" etc about Oct 7.
