| [IsraelTimes] Gazoo's terrorist rulers said to be getting money and guns in return for treating maimed jihadists smuggled in via tunnels The Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, terror group is allowing Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... fighters from Sinai to be treated in Gazoo Strip hospitals in exchange for weapons and money, an Israeli general told a Saudi-owned news outlet on Monday. The IS operatives enter the Gazoo Strip through tunnels from Egypt and receive medical treatment at Nasser Hospital in the southern city of Khan Younis, according to Maj. Gen. Yoav Mordechai, the head of Israel's Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories unit. In exchange, the Islamic State supplies Gazoo's terrorist rulers with money and weapons, both of which the terrorist group has been lacking since Egypt began cracking down on the tunnels Hamas had been using for its lucrative commercial trade, the Elaph news site said. Though Israeli officials have noted the growing relationship between terror groups in the Gazoo Strip and terror groups in the Sinai Peninsula, most have been reticent about the exact nature of the relationship.
"Paleostinian government hospitals only receive the sick and maimed residents of the Gazoo Strip," Dr. Ashraf al-Qudra, front man for the ministry, said. The relatively small Islamic State contingent in Sinai -- approximately 500 fighters in all -- has nevertheless put up a considerable fight against Egyptian forces, with regular shooting and boom-mobileing attacks on military bases and cop shoppes. Israel has not taken a role in the fight, but the IDF has provided intelligence to Egyptian forces, according to military sources. Egpyt, meanwhile, has reportedly helped Israel in the fight against Hamas by flooding the tunnels used by the terror group for both commercial and military purposes. According to Energy Minster Yuval Steinitz, speaking on Saturday, this was done at Israel's request. However, denial ain't just a river in Egypt... Egypt has denied this. A bigwig in the Egyptian foreign ministry called the Israeli ambassador in Cairo, Haim Koren, to voice his objection to Steinitz's remarks, the London-based news site al-Araby al-Jadeed reported. On Monday, a Paleostinian man died when a tunnel collapsed on him in the latest in a series of fatal Gazoo tunnel collapses. The 24-year-old man had been repairing the tunnel, which had been damaged by the Egyptian military, according to local reports. Since September last year, the Egyptian military has periodically pumped sea water into the underground cross-border tunnels dug between its Sinai Peninsula and the Gazoo Strip in a campaign to stamp out smuggling.

| #1 Hamas almost certainly has a 'don't help ISIS' policy but that won't keep individual Gazans, including those who are nominally Hamas, from helping their co-believers out on occasion. Of course ISIS is more likely to execute a wounded Hamas fighter than to give them medical care. |
