Hamas leader in Gaza: Ties with Iran now ‘fantastic’; we’re preparing battle for Palestine
2017-08-29
[IsraelTimes] Hailing fully restored relations with Tehran, Yahya Sinwar says his group doesn’t want war yet but is building up military power for ’the liberation of Paleostine’.

The new Gazoo leader of the Paleostinian terrorist group Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, said Monday it has restored relations with Iran and is gearing up for future hostilities with Israel.

Yahya Sinwar told news hounds that Iran is now "the largest backer financially and militarily" of Hamas’s armed wing. It was his first meeting with journalists since taking up his post in February.

Sinwar said that with Iran’s help, Hamas is accumulating military power in preparation for a battle for "the liberation of Paleostine."

Hamas is "developing our military strength in order to liberate Paleostine," Sinwar said, but he also stressed that it does not seek war for now "and takes every effort to avoid a war... At the same time we are not afraid of a war and are ready for it."

"The Iranian military support to Hamas and al-Qassam is strategic," he added, saying the relationship had "become fantastic and returned to its former era."

"Every day we build missiles and continue military training," he added, saying that thousands of people are working "day and night" to prepare for the next conflict.

The group is in sore need of funds and backing as its current top patron, Qatar
...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates...
, is under fire from Gulf allies for supporting it.
