Qatar has funded and helped arm ISIS. They also, as we all know, fund Hamas. That's got to stop. And we've got to use our pressure against that country to knock that stuff off.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Hamas has long been Israel's enemy, but in the wake of the Arab Spring, the group is empowered like never before.
Hamas is responsible for countless homicide bombings that have killed hundreds of Israeli citizens. They have waged a terror war with the sole intent of murdering innocent people.
Hamas, Hezbollah, and other Arab terror groups are committed to the destruction of Israel, a position supported by millions in the Muslim world.
Economically, ISIS is making money every day on the black market with their oil fields. But they are also putting money in banks. We know where those banks are. We should go after the banks and the facilitators using them.
Sooner or later, Israel will have to defeat Hamas. There is no way around it.
The Arab nations must be on our side. And if we catch them financing, if they funnel money to IS, that's when sanctions and other actions have to kick in.
The United States needs to be far clearer: we cannot and will not support any government where Hamas has a real influence and the security forces stop fighting terror.
Anything I can do to help destroy ISIS, I will support that.
The Qataris have cut off support for the most extreme elements of terrorist organizations.
There's no doubt that Iran funds and supplies Hamas with weapons.
