Script:.
To my Palestinian brothers and siblings, and to anyone who supports the Palestinian people, I implore you:.
Please do not let Hamas brainwash you into thinking it has “achieved” anything on our behalf.
It hasn’t.
Not in the Gaza Wars of 2021, 2014, 2012 or 2008..
Every one of these pointless conflicts has been a catastrophe, costing us very much in lives and treasure..
Hamas is not a social justice motion, and it certainly does not appreciate the Palestinian individuals..
It is a criminal gang that only appreciates increasing its own power..
Israel is not the main reason for your suffering.
Hamas is the primary cause..
Israel is not your jailer..
Hamas is..
It was Hamas that led you into this most recent disaster..
They informed you that the Israelis were evicting innocent Palestinians from their homes in the Sheik Jarrah location of East Jerusalem..
This is a lie..
The people residing in those homes weren’t tenants; they were squatters. They hadn’t paid rent for years.
They informed you that the Israelis prepared to destroy the Al Aqsa Mosque..
This, too, is a lie.
The mosque is still there. It will be there tomorrow. State what you desire about the Israelis, they are not silly. They understand that if they really attempt to destroy Al Aqsa, it would cause war with every Muslim nation.
Yes, Hamas takes action and hence looks strong next to its rival, the corrupt Fatah celebration. The only action it takes is to lead us into chaos..
Hamas has no capability– and, in fact, no desire– to govern.
The water isn’t safe to consume, the power goes out for hours at a time, raw sewage cleans up on your beaches. The Israelis are not accountable for these disappointing failures– Hamas is. And everybody in Gaza knows it..
It is Hamas that takes the imported cement meant to construct houses for you and uses it instead to construct a huge network of tunnels from which it intends to terrorize Israelis. It is Hamas that ensures humanitarian aid implied for you is diverted to its favored elites who then offer it for a profit on the black market..
And it is Hamas that uses you as human guards, stationing rocket launchers and rocket arsenals in your apartments, office complex, schools and even health centers.
Israel uses rockets to safeguard its people. Hamas uses individuals to safeguard its rockets.
As for its war strategy, Hamas does not have one. I understand from my sources in Gaza that as much as 25 percent of all rockets introduced by Hamas in May 2021 crashed within Gaza.
Are you aware of the truth that a few of the Hamas missiles that Israeli Defense Forces failed to obstruct ended up blowing up in places like Jaffa, Abu Ghosh and Lod– where Arab Israelis live? Palestinians living in Israel are as likely to be killed as Israelis themselves.
Hamas couldn’t care less.
And what was gained?
Palestinians residing in those four structures in Sheikh Jarrah will still eventually be evicted, a fact that has actually been understood to those households since they offered away the title to those buildings.
Since Hamas selected to conceal weapons in residential structures, think about the even higher number of Palestinians who are now homeless in Gaza.
And when naĂŻve American and European NGO’s deal millions to “restore Gaza” who do you think will get that money? It won’t be you– individuals who really deserve it and need it; it will be the leaders of the Hamas gang and their friends who will add new rooms to their expensive villas rather than restore homes, purchase coronavirus vaccines, or provide social services for their individuals.

How do we make life better for those who live in Gaza? The Israelis are not responsible for these depressing failures– Hamas is. As for its war technique, Hamas does not have one. I know from my sources in Gaza that as much as 25 percent of all rockets introduced by Hamas in May 2021 crashed within Gaza. Fifty Gaza civilians were eliminated by these rockets, their deaths falsely blamed on Israel.
