    I was expecting more of a “Rebel” look.

    Why?

    Israel not only let suitcases full of money get to Hamas across the border, they outright solicited donations to Hamas from other countries.

    Obviously the people running Hamas are going to be corrupt and taking a huge slice of that money.

    Hell, the only reason Hamas is “in control” of Gaza is Israel refuses to let Gaza hold a new election. The whole situation is just so Israel has an excuse to act like this.

    Just like the reason Israel took so long to take this guy out, probably has more to do with Joe Biden stepping down than anything else. Bibi just came back from DC, and he probably realizes the clock is running down on unconditional support. So we’re going to see them focus more on actual military targets for the next few months, then a ceasefire while Biden is in office.

      Suggesting that hamas is corrupt and their goal is to steal money doesnt make sense. Their leaders in and out of gaza has been being targeted all the time. If you want to get rich you could easily go to west bank and live happily with LPO who are the actual thieves.

        Just like a criminal organization can have middle management get arrested because the top guy gives them up.
