    Poor??

    Meet the Hamas billionaires - Globes

    https://en.globes.co.il/en/article-t...ers-1000957953

    "Among the Palestinians, they tell you straight out, 'I want to get rich.'"
    In recent days, various media have been publishing photographs of Hamas leaders in luxurious homes with fitness equipment, at luxury hotels around the world, etc. On the other hand, distressing pictures are being shown of the suffering of the Palestinian people in their rundown houses, whom Hamas says it represents.

    One of the big mysteries is how much the Hamas leaders, the Arab world's new tycoons, are worth, and how they, born and raised in refugee camps, who raise aloft the cause of their people's welfare, have become so wealthy and reclusive. "The vast majority of Hamas founders and leaders were refugees or second generation refugees, and some of them were the product of marriages between Egyptians and Palestinians. They had no money at all. When they and Hamas were just starting out, the organization (not in its own name) was nurtured by the Israeli military government, which fostered the Islamic associations working in the Gaza Strip as a counterweight to the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). Their phenomenal wealth started accumulating when they decided to disassociate themselves from Israel and search for alternative financing sources."

    "Legacies from the deceased; money from charity funds; a donation called zaka, one of the six pillars of Islam; and donations from various countries. It started with Syria and Saudi Arabia, with Iran added later and becoming one of Hamas's biggest supporters, and ended with Qatar, which has now taken Iran's place."

    "One of those fundraisers was Dr. Musa Abu Marzook, the number 2 man in Hamas. "At the beginning of the 1990s, he began a fundraising campaign in the US among wealthy Muslims, while at the same time founding several banking enterprises. He himself became a conglomerate of 10 financial enterprises giving loans and making financial investments. He's an amazing financier."

    The US administration ordered Marzook's arrest in 1995 on charges of supporting terrorism. After he spent two years in a US prison, it was decided to expel him without trial. He kept the money. "When he was expelled from the US in 1997, he was already worth several million dollars," Today, Marzook is considered one of Hamas's wealthiest billionaires. "Arab sources estimate his wealth at $2-3 billion,"
    Another Hamas leader-turned-tycoon is Khaled Mashaal. "Estimates around the world are that he is currently worth $2.6 billion, but much higher, varying from $2-5 billion invested in Egyptian and Persian Gulf banks, and some in real estate projects in the Persian Gulf countries."

    The Asharq Al-Awsat (Middle East) newspaper, one of the most prestigious in the Arab world, recently reported that at least 600 millionaires were living in the Gaza Strip - the same people sitting on the money pipelines there.

    ........I am sure you do not want to hear more!

    Its about leadership, if the leaders care about themselves ? What can these poor people do? If they speak anything negative against Hamas. I do not think they could see the daylight of tomorrow?

    Why is a Jewish state employing Thai workers?

    I'm thinking there might be something in Balan's post BT, I was reading about an Israeli attack on a refugee camp, a 4 storey building was destroyed. Since when did refugee camps have 4 storey buildings ? Not everything is as it seems in Gaza.

    BT : I make sure what I write is as far as possible the truth. but I do try to 'stump you if I can.

    ...if this bollox was true Balan, and you know it.
    Don't dare search for Dr. Musa Abu Marzook, he is really a rag and bone merchant well known in Jerusalem.

    Than Khaled Mashaal. he owns a restaurant near me in Akko
    .Look it up!
    Then Ismail Haniyeh, not sure about him! maybe Islamic Jihad??

    BT: You would not know but from a wave of terror from Arabs killing Israelis.

    From the Oslo Accords (Sept. 1993) until September 2000 - nearly 300 Israelis were killed in attacks.

    During the Palestinian Al-Aqsa Intifada (Sept. 2000 - Dec. 2005) another 1,100 Israelis were killed.

    Since DSeptember 2000, Palestinian terrorist attacks have claimed 1,362 Israeli lives.

    So why employ Arabs in Israel ,so they found that Thais were willing to come here work and earn.

    (September 1993 - Present)

    Why did Israel build a wall ? The wall that you call ''an Apartheid wall?'' As above we gave the Arabs in the West Bank, work ,they worked in restaurants, on building sites, and on farms. But those crazy leaders said to them ''Kill the Jews'' and they did. They could then come into Israel to find work, now they are 'poor' Palestinians!! So now we have to control who comes in,and you have shown photos on here of sometimes crowded entrances? Some examples:

    Mar 27, 2002 - 22 people were killed (8 more died later) and 140 injured - 20 seriously - in a suicide bombing in the Park Hotel in the coastal city of Netanya, in the midst of the Passover holiday seder with 250 guests. Hamas claimed responsibility for the attack.

    Mar 28, 2002 - Rachel and David Gavish, 50, their son Avraham Gavish, 20, and Rachel's father Yitzhak Kanner, 83, were killed when a terrorist infiltrated the community of Elon Moreh in Samaria, entered their home and opened fire on its inhabitants. Hamas claimed responsibility for the attack.

    Mar 29, 2002 - Tuvia Wisner, 79, of Petah Tikva and Michael Orlinsky, 70, of Tel-Aviv were killed Friday morning, when a Palestinian terrorist infiltrated the Neztarim settlement in the Gaza Strip.

    Mar 29, 2002 - Rachel Levy, 17, and Haim Smadar, 55, the security guard, both of Jerusalem, were killed and 28 people were injured, two seriously, when a female suicide bomber blew herself up in the Kiryat Yovel supermarket in Jerusalem. The Fatah Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades claimed responsibility for the attack.

    Mar 30, 2002 - Border Policeman Sgt.-Maj. Constantine Danilov, 23, of Or Akiva was shot and killed in Baka al-Garbiyeh, during an exchange of fire with two Palestinians trying to cross into Israel to carry out a suicide attack. The Fatah Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades claimed responsibility

    Believe me I can fill the pages!!!
