Israeli officials are facing backlash after years of Prime Minister Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu quietly allowing Hamas to remain in power.
But reporting in the New York Times has revealed that Netanyahu’s government was more hands-on about helping Hamas: they helped a Qatari diplomat bring suitcases of cash into Gaza, indirectly boosting the militant organization, according to the report.
The calculus — the Times reported on Sunday, citing Israeli officials, Netanyahu’s critics, and the man’s own reported statements — was to keep Hamas strong enough to counteract the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank, allowing Netanyahu to avoid a two-state peace solution and keep both sides weak.
Israeli security officials got it wrong; they didn’t think Hamas was capable, or even interested, in launching a large attack against the Jewish state.
Hey everybody are y’all seeing this shit?
Doesnt matter what anyone here thinks. The truth can be unpopular. Israel will continue defending itself, and yall cant do shit to stop it. Keep crying because the terrorists that you support keep losing.
Hahaha you stupid zionist piece of shit! Thanks for proving my point
I proved that hamas are terrorists that you support? Thanks I guess.
Only stupid people believe terrorists over established intelligence allies.
Believing the IDF in Gaza is like believing the CIA in Central America
The CIA was toppling democratically elected governments. Hamas is a terrorist organization that hasn’t held a vote in two decades. no equivalence unless you believe all “underdogs” are equivalent.

You’re an idiot if you think that criticism of Biibi or IDF actions equates to supporting Hamas. I get that you like one side of the conflict but don’t assume that because others dislike the mass killing of civilians that means that they support terrorists.
Then I am not an idiot. Thank you.
Bibi needs criticism. Let’s not elevate Hamas as resistance fighters tho.
You are an idiot if you are denying some of the very real anti semitism coming from the left now. Jews should be allowed to be Jews and have that independent from the israeli-palestinian confilct.
Care to show me where I elevated Hamas or denied anti-antisemitism from any quarter at all?
Thanks to you bunch of clowns the word anti-Semitism doesn’t even have a meaning anymore. The moment someone calls me or anyone else in anti-semite I just assume that they’re a lying sack of shit.
An Israeli complaining about anti-semitism and a fascist complaining about censorship are the exact same thing.
I am not israeli lmao. I am not even jewish. I am actually of muslim and catholic descent. I just have a brain and recognize the obvious anti semitism from the left.
If we were criticizing only idf, then sure. Why is the left protesting jewish restaurants in philly and nyc?
I don’t know maybe you should ask them
Progressive leftists have some issues with antii semitism if they are protesting random jews on behalf of palestine. Immediately obvious
That sounds like some conditions that you made up.
Wow so now you’re literally just making up accusations out of thin air. Typical zionist nazi
Now you pretend like the left wasnt ok with protesting random jews in the usa lol.
Zionist nazi… lmao. I am not even jewish.
But you are supporting fascist ideology and propaganda.
i don’t support hamas unlike ya tho
