      Propped up hamas? The palestinian muslim brotherhood branch that arose after the first intifada? You’re saying Natenyahu propped them up? Please tell how Natenyahu propped up Al Fatah while you are at it too.

        Yes. Netanyahu and the Israeli far right worked to legitimize Hamas and to ignore the Palestinian Authority, Fatah, etc in order to cause a split in Palestinian politics and to sabotage the two state solution for peace.

          I dont even know where to begin on this. I have a feeling that you are scrambling the Yom Kippur war, Camp David Accords of 78’ and the 2 state solution plans that were rejected by the arab community. All of that has nothing to do with Natenyahu or right wing politics.

            No, I’m just taking Bibi at his word..

            The prime minister also said that, “whoever is against a Palestinian state should be for” transferring the funds to Gaza, because maintaining a separation between the PA in the West Bank and Hamas in Gaza helps prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state.

            To be clear, he’s talking about the Qatari funds that they now complain are funding Hamas.

            Yisrael Beytenu leader Avigdor Liberman, who resigned as head of the Defense Ministry over Gaza policies, said on Saturday that the payments are a “miserable decision,” marking “the first time Israel is funding terrorism against itself."
