Israels defense minister said Tuesday that a Palestinian journalist who was shot dead by Israeli troops on the Israel-Gaza border was a Hamas operative, although the media production company he founded had recently been vetted for a U.S. government grant.
Yaser Murtaja, the co-founder of Ain Media, was shot as he filmed protests at the border fence Friday.
Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman said that Murtaja, who used drones to film in the course of his work, was giving drone footage of Israeli positions to Hamas, was the equivalent of a captain in the groups military wing and had been on its payroll since 2011. He did not provide evidence for the assertions.

Our government is infiltrated at all levels with Muslim Brotherhood. Look up Huma’s parents, that’s but one of many examples lying in plain view.

Giving grants to foreign spies is how our Deep State funds anti-Americanism.

“Leftovers from Obama and Hillary” were allowed to remain by Rex Tillerson, a damnable never-Trumper who got his job b/c of Condi Rice. Tillerson had no respect for the President of the United States. He accomplished absolutely nothing in his job and was a waterboy for what’s left of the dwindling Jeb! faction in the GOP... Please clap.

the media production company he founded had recently been vetted for a U.S. government grant. I'd love to see the application.
WTF are we doing giving taxpayer money to enemy activists?

...the media production company he founded had recently been vetted for a U.S. government grant. I am opposed to ANY "media production company", or any corporation for that matter, receiving U.S. government grants, but there is absolutely no legitimate reason whatsoever for my government to be giving my tax dollars to a declared enemy of this country.
