    And the irony is that Israel allowed Hamas to be funded by Arabic countries 25 years ago when it was a way to weaken Arafat and the PLO. Everything in this area is fucked beyond parody. No authority on either side has any idea about morality.

      Netanyahu actually said something very similar, that the best way to destabilise the Palestinian Authority was to finance Hamas.

      The same parallels with how the US funded what would later become Al Qaeda to fuck with the Soviets. Then they did 9/11.

      It’s not ironic at all. Arafat and the PLO were TERRORISTS with no interest in peace whatsoever, and who had a stranglehold on all political power.

      It’s not like Israel had a non-terrorist faction to work with.
