Funny, I don't really remember anyone defending Hamas, it was more a question of defending the truth.
Just because you hate Muslim's and live in some fantasy world where they are all out to get you doesn't change the facts.
And just because you post an out of context quote stating that Hamas leadership now believes that the teenagers were kidnapped by Hamas members doesn't mean they had prior knowledge or gave the order to make it happen.
If Fiddledog was impartial enough to not try to mask the facts, he could have given more context to the statement made by the Hamas leader, of course he, like you, is a raging bigot who cares nothing about the truth and will use any method he can to subdue it to fit his hate-filled agenda.
From the interview:
$1:
"We were not aware of this action taken by this group of Hamas members in advance," he said. "But we understand people are frustrated under the occupation and the oppression, and they take all kinds of action."
When asked directly whether Hamas members carried out the abduction of the Israeli teens, Meshaal said: "We learned about these confessions from the Israeli investigation … Hamas political leadership was not aware of all these details. We learned about it later on …
So you guys are surprised that Hamas initially didn't have knowledge when they were not even able to conduct their own investigation ?
How would you expect them to gain this information ?
