Hamas seeks assistance from the UN
INN ^ | 11/29/18 06:43 | Elad Benari

Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the political bureau of the Hamas terrorist organization, on Wednesday night wrote a letter to the United Nations General Assembly president, Maria Fernanda Spinosa, in response to the US and Israel’s efforts against Hamas in the UN.

The United States has been leading a push at the United Nations to win backing from European countries for a resolution condemning Hamas.

The General Assembly is expected to vote in the coming days on the proposed resolution, which will condemn rocket firings into Israel and demand that Hamas end its use of violence. […]

Israel’s Ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, said in response that “Hamas speaks about international law while it fires rockets into civilian populations, holds the bodies of IDF soldiers and Israeli citizens, and uses its own people as human shields. A terrorist organization going to the UN for assistance is like a serial killer asking the police for assistance. Israel and the United States will continue to mobilize the countries of the world into a united front against the terrorism that Hamas engages in on behalf of Iran.” …

Thank you, President Trump, for holding the line against Hamas. This is giving Israel back her voice.

Some interesting twists. Hamas has no standing at the UN. According to Oslo only the PLO cum PA is the “sole representative of the Palestinian people” and has a non-voting seat in the UN. Hamas should go ask Abbas to speak for him...lol. Hamas trying to strike out on its own, separate independent state of Gaza? (I doubt it, but it was a thought).

Ain’t that the truth. I recall another one. By Martin Sheen in Apocalypse Now, when he said, charging someone with murder over here (Vietnam) is like handing out speeding tickets at the Indianapolis 500. 😁
