FBI funded Hamas, CBS says

According to CBS, the FBI actually gave tens of thousands of dollars to Hamas to ''use it for terror attacks.'' I am not kidding. Here is the article.

www.cbsnews.com...

I thought the US didnt negotiate with ''terrorists''.......yea, they just give them money to commit the terror. Who really is inciting all this terror? Al Queda was even admittedly created and funded by the CIA....

Who has the real motive for terror? Who really stands to gain from the threat of terrorism? Who gets to invade countries? Who gets the natural resources? Who gets to have more power, funding, and control? Who gets the high approval ratings? Who gets us all scared, begging for protection?

It is obvious.....the UN via the US, thats who.

Here is the first paragraph, which explains why they did it:

...the FBI was secretly funneling money to suspected Hamas figures to see if the militant group would use it for terrorist attacks, according to interviews and court documents.

Clear that it wasn't trying to deal with terrorists. Ever worked with or around the FBI? This doesn't really surprise me. Not necessarily the agents, but the agency would feel the need to light a match near a gas leak to see if the fumes will actually detonate.

Nice analogy...but heres a better one....

The FBI funding hamas to commit attacks is equivalent to going up to someone, giving him the money to buy a gun, and then telling him to shoot someone. Then when he does, you point at him, say he is a criminal, and arrest him.

Thats basically what this is.

Why would they FBI try to incite terrorism anyways? Thats EXACTLY what it is....they incited terrorism.....they are supposed to stop terrorism. Can you stop terrorism by inciting it?

i guess the key word here is "pretext" lol, as the old saying goes "to create a solution you must first create the problem". Our governemt has long history of fueling fires around the globe, all our defense contractors must take the idea of job security pretty serious..sooner or later its gonna really backfire on our government.

lol its kinda like this you tell a guy that another guy just killed every person in his family, then say to him "well we wish we could do something about it, but because we forgot to read him his rights hes going to go free" then after that they go and do this "o and the guy that did it is that guy over there....now heres a gun, go do something with the gun...you have a good day " couple minutes later "*BAM* HEY LOOK THAT GUY SHOT SOME ONE, GET HIM!!!"

except they already know the enemy so we dont have to tell them who to attack. they are already pissed off so we are just like "heres some money, not enough for any real facilities to help your people, but you know some great stuff is on the black market right now *wink* you guys spend it well"

my faith in the government and its agencies is non existant lol.

its much like the american government is pushing people into causing WARIII. the anti-christ????

All the conspiracy's come together at a point. We need to find a median,
what one point links all the theories together?

Unfortunately i think that one point is human nature and its natural tendency towards conflict

...maybe if humans were machines.

people choose their own actions, they wont shoot someone because you give them a gun and tell them to shoot someone else.

if that person does shoot then he is a criminal by his own choice.

as such, hamas intented terrorist attacks, all the fbi did was test their intent to show that they indeed are terrorists.

sounds like a child poking a snake to see if it is really a snake.
i'm sure the FBI is smarter than that.

spearhead, the fbi does this to all kinds of groups to give proof for prosecution against them.

so asking them to kill us so we have reason to kill them is justifiable?
I think not. It is how wars are instigated.

They don't, this was nothing more then a sting operation, as TC pointed out it is clear that they weren't trying to deal with terrorists with intent to cause harm too Israeli's

Those conducting the operation also made Israeli authorities aware of what they were doing, hardly something one would do if they were trying to actually fund them for real. :shk:

"This was done in conjunction with permission from the attorney general for an ongoing operation, and Israeli authorities were aware of it," the bureau said.

Same source as that used by author of the thread!!!

How can an occupied people be called a terrorist?

Maybe Israeli authorities want to control their people with fear too? Oh no, that couldn't be true, they would never do such a horrible thing ... would they?

[/sarcasm]

The only surprise here is that is was covered by CBS. It's perfectly inline with 9/11, the AQ phantom and their supposed strikes on Madrid, London, Bali (Australian proxy psy-op), Iraq's "democratic process", etc.

What better, more elusive bogeyman than terror can there be?

Umm... what's the difference between this and a sting operation? It couldn't be any more obvious that this was not some top ultra secret program to fund Hamas, more like a test to see if they would take the bait.
Seriously, do some of you see a conspiracy in every single thing you read, hear or see?

couldnt they just see if they would use their own money for terrorsist attacks? oh wait they have no money? oh well i guess they wont be a problem them.

i mean its hamas, we already knew who they were. maybe it wasnt a good idea to try and do this operation in the middle of a peace process?

Israel and America are in on everything together, it should come as no surprise that Israel was aware of it.

I personally believe that baiting your enemy into commiting attacks, then condemning them for it is kinda hypocritical...

And how much of a threat can Hamas be to Israel's existence?

Answer: very little. Palestine doesnt even have an army yet. Israel has over 400 nukes in its arsenal. What are they worried about?

Sounds like fear-mongering to me.

military strength can win you a battle and/or a war but its alot tougher to defeat an idea or belief, which is what we all see and read all the time over there with the islamic radicalism and extremism. thats one advantage any miliatry force doesnt like to go up against..people who are'nt afraid to die and are willing to die for thier cause. I agree part of it is fear mongering, but unfortunately the U.S. and Israel are jus adding more fuel to the fire on the flip side.

Do you even attempt to read this stuff before you post it? I ask because what you are asserting is directly conflicting with what the article says.
