Israel sets sites (sic) on Hamas "royalty" living abroad
Israel National News ^ | 12/18/2023 | Amelie Botbol

How do Hamas leaders have a combined net worth of eleven billion dollars? 

Hamas’s leadership openly embraces its lavish lifestyle, staying at five-star hotels in Qatar and Turkey and flying internationally on private jets, even as Palestinian Arabs in Gaza fight over humanitarian aid in the terrorist-ruled enclave.

“A good life is a sign of success and power,” IDF Brig. Gen. (res.) Yosef Kuperwasser, senior research fellow at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, told JNS.

And it isn’t just the Hamas leadership abroad, he added.

“I have been once or twice to the Kerem Shalom crossing [with Gaza]. You would not believe the number of jacuzzis going into the Strip,” he said.

The cumulative net worth of Hamas’s top leaders abroad—Ismail Haniyeh, Moussa Abu Marzouk and Khaled Mashaal—is estimated at $11 billion, and they do not hide their taste for the high life.

(SNIP ... Much more at source.)

This line from the article is a keeper: “Once they (HAMAS leaders) are killed, they won't be able to travel anymore,” said Amidror.

More info from the article that better explains the article's title:

"Indeed, Netanyahu has vowed to target the heads of Hamas “wherever they are,” and Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said “they are living on borrowed time.” According to the INSS’s Guzansky, these statements were made for psychological effect, and the targeting of Hamas terrorists abroad will not happen immediately. “One of the reasons that I think Netanyahu and Gallant said it out loud, publicly, is that they want them [Hamas leadership] to feel chased,” explained Guzansky. “They want them to feel fear. It's psychological warfare. They are letting them know that Israel is coming from them,” he added.

Not sure it would matter to the general Palestinian population, but Israel should post on media and broadcast in Gaza and the West Bank pictures and information of their lifestyle. Seem like it would be common sense the general population living in poverty would get pissed. But then again, it requires some common sense.

Well, whomever created hamas, not only has a LOT of money, but knows they have to keep giving them money to keep them as Controlled Opposition.

“...the general population living in poverty...”

If that group was interested in improving themselves it would have happened long ago. Hamas got itself installed as the ruling faction within the strip by elections and then did away with them. If the general populous living in poverty was really concerned about it they should have said something over the last 15 years so they have chosen their fate. And since they didn’t, they approve of what hamas has done and will continue to do so in the name of brutally destroying all Jewish people, or any people to include themselves, in the future that don’t approve of islam.

As ye sow, so shall ye reap. (Galatians 6:7) And in this case, the reaping has started on earth being offered as human shields along with brutlizing other people they don’t even know. So, are they victims or not?

Stolen U.S. taxpayer aid. That's what they call a two state solution.

Find them and kill them wherever they are. Kill the people standing next to them. Then kill the people who were standing next to those people.

Kill their cooks, gardeners, drivers, and the people who do their laundry. Kill the maids who clean their fancy hotel rooms. Kill the doormen who let them into those hotels. Kill the concierges who kiss their nasty murderous asses.

Then find those people’s families and kill them, too.

Kill their bankers. Kill their lawyers. Kill the bankers families. Kill the lawyers families. Burn their homes to the ground.

No mercy.
No quarter.
None.

That’s true they also hate anyone who isn’t them. Their founding documents call for the eradication of Jews

People need to understand that the only way to achieve peace against an implacable enemy population is to permanently break their will by destroying their society.

Unless you do that, they will always be back at your throat.

Keep at the job, Israel. Target military assets, which, being the entirety of Gaza, will result is complete rubble. Then make it bounce for demonstration purposes. Perhaps then the few remaining Pales will CHANGE THEIR MINDS. But if not, keep bombing.

I am hoping that the man quoted, Guzanansky, is wrong in that Israel already has these vermin in custody or has sent them to their eternal torment.

If Israel merely kills every Hamas member and destroys all its military capability, that is not enough.

The problem is the islamic totalitarian anti-semitic mind virus.

Leaving a population with that mind virus intact is a strategic loss for Israel. They must target a permanent change in Palestinian genocidal intent. That will require many hundreds of thousands dead before the remainder unconditionally and permanently surrender strategically and mentally.

In the long run, massive total societal defeat will be good for the Palestinians. Taking all the energy they apply to killing Jews and redirecting it to improving their own lives will be salutary.

It's very simple. The problem is Islam!

Gaza's Sky is Black, But Qatar Is Always Sunny

SO appropriate.
