Israel funded Hamas when it was founded as away to destabilize the PLO, hoping to create a more friendly Palestinian group. The PLO faded away and Hamas became even worse.
It was obviously a mistake, but only with hindsight.
What you're saying is the typical accusation that Jews are responsible for their own attackers, like blaming Jews for the Holocaust.
- pazimzadeh 3y ago> Israel funded Hamas when it was founded That was the more extreme version of Hamas, vs the Hamas that Netanyahu was funding in 2009, so you’re arguing against itself. Either way, funding Hamas, who is dedicated to destroying Israel, in order to create a more friendly group? That makes no sense. Preventing a united Palestinian organization, that actually makes sense. > It was obviously a mistake, but only with hindsight. At which point did you realize it was a mistake? Perhaps the person who made the mistake is not who we should be lending our support to? Bringing up the Holocaust here is an admission that you would rather distract with emotions than engage with the topic.
