Most of the foreign aid that went to the Palestinian Authority went towards paying their citizens for “do nothing jobs”, in what is basically welfare. One of these salaries is typically enough to support 10 people in this area, and it is estimated that 25% of them rely on this money. But they are not going to get this money anymore, because Hamas will misappropriate it to fund terror. The US and the EU will continue to provide the territory with food and water because they can do so without Hamas getting its paws on it. That leaves one important question, how do we give them health care and education without letting Hamas touch it? Obviously we would rather let them go without it than have any chance of Hamas getting a hand in this money.
Hamas is the quintessential terror organization, but they were rightfully elected in a supposedly free election. I don’t know what the citizens thought they were going to be able to achieve under Hamas’ leadership, but it’s not going to happen.
When Israel withdrew from Guf Katif, an extremely productive Gaza settlement, they left behind many fully functioning, high-tech greenhouses. This was an extraordinary gesture of peace if I’ve ever seen one. What did the people there do, they destroyed them. There are certainly to be no peace offerings for Hamas.
So for the time being the people there get to live with the knowledge that electing Hamas was the worst decision they could have possibly made. They will suffer greatly under Hamas’ authority. And hopefully they will be more careful who they vote into power next time around. Hamas had better not try anything funny between now and then, otherwise they’ll be in much bigger trouble.
Hamas should try to become known for something other than terror. Use that energy for something productive, plant some olive trees, clean up the place a bit, it’s your home – make the most of it!!!
You are an IDIOT period. Hamas is nothing but a new seed of what is to come, The Arab and Muslim people are awakening form a deep sleep. Enjoy your day in the sun jew boy, for the day will soon come when you will be judge for your inhumane and Fascist treatment of the OWNERS of every centimeter of the holy land. Those same people you ill treat today will be your judge tomorrow and they will have no mercy. No one will come to your aid when we take you down and punish you with what you deserve. So, grow up and shut the fuck up yourself you blood sucking evil cult. Jews are the cause of ALL evils in the world, take the jews out and see how peaceful earth can be. You are a curse on humanity and humanity needs to cleanse itself of your evil cult.
Unstrap the bomb from your waist and have a seat… there is no need for such anger. This comment is a perfect example of how ignorance is turned into hatred without ever putting any substance behind it. It’s easy to blame others for everything, it’s better to take responsiblity for yourself. Instead of focusing on punishing someone, try to focus on more positive avenues such as providing for your family and smiling at a neighbor. We will all be punished and rewarded after we die, it is certainly not your job to be punishing people here on earth.
When the Isrealites were developing the “holy land” as it’s known, your anscestors were praying to who knows what. The so called occupied territories were known as Judea and Sumaria… you called him Jew boy, where do you think that word comes from, it comes from Judea. Jews make up less than 1/4 of 1% of the population of the world, so how can you possibly say that Jews are at the root of all evil, statistically that is impossible. And if you look at who won most of the Nobel Prizes it is Jews, and if it were not for one of those Nobel Prize winners your parents would have probably died from Polio, so this evil as you call it is responsible for you having the opportunity to be alive. I think you look in the mirror and you don’t like what you see. And if you’re such a lover of the Palestinians, why don’t you go there and help them. But it is probably not that you like Palestinians but rather hate Jews, because you are an ordinary loser actually you are an extraordinary loser and you don’t like to see someone who is achieving something in life.
Why waste your time arguing with demented clowns likw Hamas?
Hamas’s hatred of the Jews and Israel keeps their problems outside of themselves. If they stop the external hatred they’ll be left with the realization of the extent of their misery and lack of contribution to themselves and the world! If they were a bit more developed this would be a good thing, akin to a neurosis that could be resolved; unfortunately, it is more like a psychosis that needs some serious meds and psychosurgery!!!!
