The List of Charges against Hamas

In an official notice at the end of its weekly meeting on June 12, 2018, the Palestinian government, led by Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah, accused Hamas of unlawfully seizing control of the Gaza Strip in 2007, imposing its rule upon the residents, exploiting existing resources for its private interests, and abusing the Palestinian people while taking advantage of their difficult situation.

Below is an excerpt of the notice:

The dark revolution that Hamas carried out [when Hamas took control of the Gaza Strip in a military coup in the summer of 2007] and the imposition of its rule upon the Gaza Strip with a policy that made life even harder for the residents, including imposing “royalties” under various names, such as fees and taxes for the Treasury that Hamas runs, in business, for gas, and on materials necessary for rehabilitation [infrastructure and buildings], taking control of government land and sharing it among its officials, seizing the electric company, energy authority, and natural resources in the [Gaza] Strip, using electricity for its private needs and then raising income for this [from payments for]electricity, controlling the crossings and the passage of goods and people, who are subjected to various kinds of extortion, such as squeezing high sums of money from the sick in exchange for producing a crossing permit for medical treatment, and controlling the money raised from the medical sector in the Gaza Strip through fees paid for medical insurance, and trading medicines and medical equipment sent to the Gaza Strip… Hamas is determined to put up obstacles and roadblocks to prevent the [Palestinian Authority] government from doing its job and exercising its full responsibility in a practical way, including in the Gaza Strip, in accordance with basic laws and all the laws that have been published with regard to all sectors and fields, without exception, including the reception of government offices and institutions, allowing clerks to return to their place of work, and the transfer of border crossings [to government authority].

Who is Responsible for the Harsh Humanitarian Situation in Gaza?

“The world hears the conflict only through Netanyahu’s voice,” Abdallah said according to an English translation of his comments provided by CNN. “We are trying to make it hear us through the sound of these simple missiles.”

Three weeks ago, Islamic Jihad fired dozens of mortar shells and rockets at Israel, one of which landed next to a kindergarten, apparently in response to the Israeli army’s killing three of its members in a cross-border exchange that came amid violent border clashes between Palestinian protesters and the IDF.

Asked by Lee why Islamic Jihad fires rockets at Israel’s civilian population, Abdallah responded that “the world needs to know that the resistance never plans to target children,” but that mistakes are made.

“Israel is proud of its support from the United States and we are proud of Iran’s support of the Palestinian resistance, on the moral and logistical level,” he continued. “There is nothing wrong with it and that is not a secret.”

Who are the Palestinians? THe Arabs who are now calling themselves "Palestinians" are invaders from the Arabian Peninsula.

Almut Nebel's 2001 study, "The Y Chromosome Pool of Jews as Part of the Genetic Landscape of the Middle East" found that, '[T]he Y chromosomes in Palestinian Arabs and Bedouin represent, to a large extent, early lineages derived from the Neolithic inhabitants of the area and additional lineages from more-recent population movements. The early lineages are part of the common chromosome pool shared with Jews. According to our working model, the more-recent migrations were mostly from the ARABIAN PENINSULA [emphasis mine], as is seen in the Arab-specific Eu 10 chromosomes that include the modal haplotypes observed in Palestinians and Bedouins.'

The Many Ways Palestinians Violate International Law

• Tens of thousands of Palestinians are now living in a Lebanese ghetto called Ain Al-Hilweh, and the world seems to be fine with that.
  
  
• No one cares when an Arab country mistreats and discriminates and kills Palestinians. But when something happens in the West Bank or Gaza Strip, the international media and community suddenly wake up. Why? Because they do not want to miss an opportunity to condemn Israel. One can only imagine the uproar in the world were Israel to pass a law denying Arabs jobs or the right to inherit property.
  
  
• There are no protests on the streets of London or Paris. The UN Security Council has not -- and will not -- hold an emergency session to condemn Lebanon. Of course, the mainstream media in the West is not going to report about Arab apartheid and repressive measures against Palestinians. As for the leaders of the Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, they do not have time to address the problems of the camp residents. The Palestinian Authority and Hamas are too busy fighting each other, and the last thing they have on their minds are the interests and well-being of their people.

Gaza tensions flare: IDF strikes 8 more Hamas targets as rockets barrage south

The Palestinian rocket fire appeared to come in response to the airstrikes.

Of the projectiles fired at Israel, seven were intercepted by the Iron Dome anti-missile system and at least three failed to clear the border and landed inside the Gaza Strip, the army said.

There were no immediate reports of injuries on either side of the border, but the Eshkol council reported damage to a number of buildings and cars.

Throughout Tuesday, Palestinians in the Gaza Strip flew numerous incendiary kites and balloons into southern Israel, sparking brush fires.

In response, Israeli aircraft struck three Hamas targets in the south of the coastal enclave around midnight on Tuesday.

In reporting on the trial in Berlin of a man who attacked an individual wearing a yarmulke, where the accused confessed to the court that he had committed the assault and then apologized to his victim, JTA also reported that the assailant was “identified as a 19-year-old Syrian Palestinian living in Germany since 2015,” reviving a term that hasn’t been in use for close to two millennia.

Syria Palaestina was a Roman province between 135 AD and about 390, according to historian Clayton Miles Lehmann (Palestine: History: 135–337: Syria Palaestina and the Tetrarchy). It was established by the merger of Roman Syria and Roman Judea, following the defeat of the Bar Kochva revolt in 135 CE. Shortly after 193 CE, the northern regions were split off as Syria Coele in the north and Phoenice in the south, and the province Syria Palaestina became just Judea.

I'm not sure we should be complaining about this. The JTA article (or one of them anyway) calls him a Syrian citizen (national) of Palestinian origin, probably meaning that one or more of his grandparents was "Palestinian". According to Palestinian law, this would provide him with preferential access to Palestinian citizenship, should he choose to access it. But he also has Syrian nationality. So, what's the problem?
