We’ve known for years that Netanyahu allowed suitcases full of money across the border into Gaza that could only be going to Hamas.
But him going out and soliciting funding for Hamas…
That’s a whole nother thing. I know Netanyhu was already likely on the way out before, but I can’t see how the Israelis let him stay in control after this.
He’s literally the reason all this is happening because the only way his group maintains power is if voters are scared. So he created a reason for them to be scared.

There is not just one man behind this, despite how convenient this would be.
He’s not the only man on the ship but he’s the one at the helm.

Was so shocked when I read this I took a look and found an Israeli language source
This is damning for Israel but also for Hamas. Hamas is an Israeli plant.
Maybe the top brass. The rest of them are just hate-filled fanatics.
This was never top secret… it’s common knowledge that Israel funds hamas.
It’s the worst kept secret in the Middle East. Or would that be Israeli nukes? Bah I can’t keep up.
Joseph Borrell, European Union’s High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, in January 20 “Israel created and “funded” Hamas to weaken the Palestinian Authority led by the Fatah party”
Stop this antisemitism right now! /s
But did Netayahu condemn Hamas while getting them funds?!?
Netanyahu to Hamas - you complete me ❤️
Some $10 million was to buy fuel from Israel, needed to operate Gaza’s power station, $10 million to pay the salaries of government employees, and the final $10 million was to be given in $100 stipends to some 100,000 Gazan families in need.
In another comment an article is linked saying the money was to maintain the ceasefire. Which could be plausible deniability, but the above also sounds reasonable.
Edit: not sure if my lemmy client is fucked. This was supposed to be in response to @Maeve saying the money was to pay workers and help families in need.
I suppose it gets hard to keep up with multiple stories, both teller and consumer. Is Clark’s law (as the response to Hanlon’s razor) applicable here?

No wonder, all far-right projects like his need a common enemy to unite against. If there’s none, just buy one.
