Can someone explain to the rest of us why the leaders of Hamas, the world's evilest terrorist organization which has just murdered 1,400 innocent people, are actual billionaires living their best lives in Qatar?
Hamas leaders are billionaires, rolling in the dough
Can someone explain to the rest of us why the leaders of Hamas, the world's evilest terrorist organization which has just murdered 1,400 innocent people, are actual billionaires living their best lives in Qatar?
According to the New York Post:
While their people languish in poverty and are treated as human shields, the leaders of Hamas live billionaire lifestyles.
The terror group’s three top leaders alone are worth a staggering $11 billion between them and enjoy a life of luxury in the sanctuary of the emirate of Qatar.
The emirate has long welcomed the leaders of the terror group and installed them in its luxury hotels and villas at the same time as hosting a vast American military presence.
They need to be like Osama bin Laden in the wake of the 9/11 terror attacks, wearing rags and hiding in some stinking cave, staring at their stashes of child porn, not living large in Vegas-like Qatar.
Hamas runs an office in Qatar’s capital, Doha, and leaders Ismail Haniyeh, Moussa Abu Marzuk and Khaled Mashal live a luxurious lifestyle.
They have been seen at its diplomatic club, photographed on private jets and traveled widely. The leadership would have been there for the 2022 soccer World Cup.
Instead, Hamas is loaded with characters like this guy, Hamas leader Khalid Mishal, who's worth more than $2 billion, living in the lap of luxury, and getting glamour shots in Vanity Fair and this magazine cover satire.
Why the heck is that going on? The 1,400 torture-murders they planned and executed in Israel, and the 200 hostages they are holding now in their filthy tunnels under Gaza City pretty well puts them in the same category as Mexico's evil cartels. Burning babies and beheading 10-year-olds is what they do, not what normal people do. They are the vilest of criminals and need to be completely rubbed out.
Yet nobody in Qatar seems to be upset by this evil ensconced at the heart of their regime, nobody wants them out, they and their billions seem to be as protected as ever.
It's the kind of thing that makes Qatar a state sponsor of terror, but we don't see any action from the Biden administration to make that declaration. The U.S. and all civilized nations need to come down hard on these maggots, lay down the law for Qatar, pull U.S. troops from that state, and above all, get hold of Hamas's ill-gotten gains to pay for reparations to Israel. They aren't entitled to that money now no matter how they got hold of it.
How'd Hamas get that money, anyway? We know they don't produce anything. We know that people in Gaza, which they rule over the way Mexico's cartels rule over some parts of Mexico, are dirt poor. The only possibilities seem to be foreign aid, whether from the U.S., Iran, hostile states such as China, or various Arab princelings, or perhaps drug dealing and human smuggling, the way Mexico's cartels do it. The U.S. needs to start defunding these thugs now.
Fortunately, one baby step has been taken by a GOP representative in Congress, according to the Post:
Now Republican Tennessee Congressman Andy Ogles is co-sponsoring a bill that would strip Qatar of its status as a key US ally, The Post has learned, unless it kicks out the Hamas leadership.
A lot more needs to be done to put these animals down. They are obviously in some kind of gang or cartel dynamic as a quasi state actor, same as the cartels, and fueled by their ill-gotten gains. The U.S. knows how to issue sanctions and seize assets of bad state actors and make them scream. We don't see too much of that going on as Joe Biden calls for a ceasefire or pause in order to allow Hamas to regroup.
It's an outrageously weak response, given the resources of the U.S. government. There shouldn't be any billionaires right now among the Hamas elite. They need to be running and hiding. Instead, they are rolling in the dough as their minions conduct anti-Semitic attacks and organize demonstrations.
These people are bin Laden, ISIS, and the cartels rolled into one. It's time to take out the trash.

Joe Biden Pledges $16 Billion in Federal Money to Improve Amtrak
President Joe Biden pledged $16 billion in federal money to improve Amtrak in the nation’s Northeast Corridor, including New York, Boston, and Washington, DC.
Biden announced the pledge at an event in Delaware on Monday, where he said that the train system desperately needs improvement and repairs. He cited his personal experience of waiting on a stopped train on his way home.
“I know how much it matters,” he said.
“How can you be a leading country in the world and have a second-rate infrastructure?” he asked. “It’s not possible.”
Biden also attacked Republicans, accusing them of slashing Amtrak budgets.
“This is the USA, for God’s sake. We’re better than that, and now we’re proving it,” he said.
“They’re trying to make it slower … and less safe,” he added. “We’re not going to let them stop the progress we’re making. I truly believe this country’s about to take off. For the first time in a long time, we’re bringing pride back.”
According to CNN, the Biden administration said it “selected projects including aging bridges and tunnels in need of replacement and said the $16.4 billion includes funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.”
A White House official further said that the funds will go to upgrading the “aging infrastructure on the nation’s most heavily traveled rail corridor to increase train speeds, reduce passenger delays, and create good-paying union jobs.”
“The largest slice of funding will go to the underwater train tunnels connecting New York and New Jersey. The Gateway Hudson River Tunnel – which the Amtrak CEO has said would cause a ‘meltdown’ if it failed – is more than a century old and is corroding after flooding during Superstorm Sandy more than a decade ago,” noted CNN.
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg backed the funding.
“Americans need and deserve world-class rail, which is the president’s vision,” Buttigieg said. “But for decades now, we have underinvested as a country in passenger rail in the United States.”
The president’s pledge comes after he issued an executive order holding Norfolk Southern accountable for its involvement in the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio. The executive order occurred seven months after the incident.
“My Administration has mobilized a robust, multi-agency effort to support the people of East Palestine, Ohio, and surrounding communities,” Biden’s order said.

Report: Juarez Drug Gangs Planned Halloween Day Killing Spree in Mexico
Authorities in the Mexican border city of Ciudad Juarez are claiming that various drug gangs in the city planned a Halloween day killing spree to get the city’s murders to more than 100 for the month of October.
This week, the Chihuahua Attorney General’s Office revealed that they obtained communications between members of various drug gangs where they plotted to carry out several murders on Halloween Day to raise the murder statistics for Juarez to more than 100, El Diario de Juarez reported, citing government sources. Ciudad Juarez is immediately south of El Paso, Texas, and has historically been a hub of cartel activity, with several criminal organizations having a presence there. These include the Juarez Cartel, the Sinaloa Cartel, and Cartel Jalisco New Generation, among others.
The claim is based on a series of messages between drug gang bosses that law enforcement managed to intercept. The report does not detail which drug cartels or gangs the messages were between. However, Ciudad Juarez has a long history of cartel violence. Most recently, the violence in Juarez is tied to fights over the control of not only the drug markets but also the human smuggling market and extortion operations.
In response to the intelligence, law enforcement officials reached out to the Mexican military, and they increased the intensity of police patrols virtually flooding the streets with cops to dissuade more killings.
On Halloween day, cartel gunmen managed to kill three people in the morning and six in the afternoon, El Diario de Juarez reported. The murder statistics showed 94 killings for the month, making October the fourth deadliest. Despite the high figure, cartel leaders did not surpass the 100-murder marker that authorities claim the criminals were looking to break.
