Israel's military suggested on Tuesday that the United Nations ask Hamas for fuel supplies after the U.N. agency providing aid to Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip warned it would have to halt operations on Wednesday night if no fuel was delivered.

Israel’s military suggested on Tuesday that the United Nations ask Hamas for fuel supplies after the U.N. agency providing aid to Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip warned it would have to halt operations on Wednesday night if no fuel was delivered.

The agency, known as UNRWA, posted its warning on social media on Tuesday. The Israel Defense Forces reposted it and said that Hamas militants have more than 500,000 litres of fuel in tanks inside besieged Gaza.

“Ask Hamas if you can have some,” the IDF wrote.

    I did respond to your claims

    Israel funded Hamas the way the US funded Al Qaeda, and it exploded in their face the same way.

    To suggest they intended to fund Hamas to sabotage the peace deals they wrote and pushed is fucking dumb.

    You go afield a lot. Whether there is strife within Israel’s right wing and whether right wing people are psychopaths in general, is neither here nor there.

      Bringing up the US is a non sequitur.

      As I already stated in my previous response (ironic considering your insistence that you are responding to my claims), Israel is not a monolith.

      “To suggest they funded Hamas to sabotage peace deals they wrote…”

      Who wrote those deals and who propped up Hamas? Do you think it was the same people? That’d be pretty idiotic. Again, the Israeli government is not a singular entity but a collection of politicians, each with their personal/collective ideologies.

      It was Rabin’s moderate coalition and others that set up the accords and it was right wingers like Likud that propped up Hamas and scuttled the deal. Different people were involved with these events and I’ve made that pretty clear multiple times so cut the shit and stop being disingenuous.

      Is that clear enough for you to understand?
