Isn’t it nice that American taxpayers will be working alongside the Islamic Republic of Iran to aid Hamas.
Note also that Khamenei once again speaks of this conflict in Islamic terms, the one aspect of the conflict that Western analysts universally ignore. Find out how and why this deforms their analysis in The Palestinian Delusion.
“Iran leader urges Muslim states to back Palestinians militarily, financially,” Reuters, May 21, 2021:
Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Friday called on Muslim states to support Palestinians militarily and financially and help rebuild Gaza after an 11-day conflict with Israel, Iranian media reported.
Iran, which does not recognise Israel, supports the Islamist militants of Hamas, who rule the Gaza Strip while President Mahmoud Abbas’s Palestinian Authority controls Palestinian-populated areas of the occupied West Bank.
Hamas and the Islamic Jihad group fired hundreds of rockets into Israel before Friday’s truce, although Israel said its “Iron Dome” defence system had shot down the majority of them.
“Muslim states must sincerely support the Palestinian people, through military…or financial support …or in rebuilding Gaza’s infrastructure,” Khamenei said in a statement.
He urged Muslims to demand that their governments back Palestinians.
“All influential elements of (Israel’s) regime and the criminal (Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu must be prosecuted by international and independent courts,” Khamenei said.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry earlier said Palestinians had won a “historic victory” over Israel.
“Congratulations to our Palestinian sisters & brothers for the historic victory. Your resistance forced the aggressor to retreat,” ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh tweeted.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said in a statement: “The intifada (Palestinian uprising) has gone from using stones to powerful, precise missiles … and in the future the Zionists (Israel) can expect to endure deadly blows from within the occupied territories.”…

This geezer is even older than Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi … but not by much. They should all be together in an eldercare facility where they can meet in the rec room after lunch everyday for a game of Crazy 8’s to be followed by a long nap with their false teeth on the nightstand (except this guy may still have all of his choppers).

Ever wonder what satan the devil would look like if he could put on a human form?
Ever wonder what satan the devil would say if he spoke one of the human languages, aloud for humans to hear?
Wonder no more. Behold, this ugly creep, this mozlum terrorist, speaks for satan the devil and says what the non-evil human cannot hear straight from the demon’s mouth.
This mozlum sack of slug dung, is helping to “gather all of the nations together for the war of the Great Day of God Almighty, called in Hebrew Harmageddon”…Armageddon, a war between evil and Righteousness that will put an end to evil and those who speak it.

Islam, the cult of violence. Israel should simply cut off all electricity. Let Hamas provide the power.

Most of the world’s current leaders had to qualify it seems by proving they are insane idiots. Netanyahu, though far from perfect, at least is not an insane idiot.They keep insisting on doing the same stupid damaging policies over and over ad nauseum. Israeli leaders pushed it a little farther this time, and achieved a little more against Hamas than previously, but each time they could have gone for annihilation but backed down. Worse thing is we still failed to bring back the hostages, both dead and alive.This is unforgiveable. But more unforgivable is the insane financing of Gaza’s rebuidling. Why do they finance terrorism? This is beyond insane; it is wicked. And Israelis will pay the price in a few years or less.

Why to spend there more money, to rebuild it in order to be ruined again due to the Palestinian’s philosophy that they must demolish Israel.
If the Muslim countries contribute to rebuild Gaza, then they are stupid for paying fornothing.

Read between the lines. Moslems have declared an endless war on Israel. The Moslems agreed to a cease-fire with Isreal, which Biden supported. The million-dollar question is why? Immediately upon agreeing to the cease-fire, the Moslems (and Biden’s people) quickly move to rebuild (and rearm) the Moslem Mercenary Army and infrastructure. My question answered; how about yours?
OLD GUY says
I keep hoping that we quit sending American tax dollars to these idiots, but it appears the American tax payer is the idiot. And our government along with the UN just keeps buying their peace and cease fire bullshit followed with rebuilding funds.

Trump stopped it–but Biden vowed to reinstate this insane policy.
