Israel not only let suitcases full of money get to Hamas across the border, they outright solicited donations to Hamas from other countries.
Obviously the people running Hamas are going to be corrupt and taking a huge slice of that money.
Hell, the only reason Hamas is “in control” of Gaza is Israel refuses to let Gaza hold a new election. The whole situation is just so Israel has an excuse to act like this.
Just like the reason Israel took so long to take this guy out, probably has more to do with Joe Biden stepping down than anything else. Bibi just came back from DC, and he probably realizes the clock is running down on unconditional support. So we’re going to see them focus more on actual military targets for the next few months, then a ceasefire while Biden is in office.
