In the meantime, those hideous fuckers, Hamas. Any ideas why they have such control in Gaza?
Answer: Israel supported them.
I know that sounds ridiculous, but it's all about Israel wanting to diminish the ability of the more moderate Palestinian Authority to negotiate for a two-state solution. Hamas, like Israel, can't abide that idea, so Israel saw it as in their interest to support them in Gaza. Fucking madness.

For years, Netanyahu propped up Hamas. Now it’s blown up in our faces
The premier's policy of treating the terror group as a partner, at the expense of Abbas and Palestinian statehood, has resulted in wounds that will take Israel years to heal from
