Hamas is ISIS, Netanyahu repeats
Netanyahu repeats his line that Isis and Hamas are part of the poisonous tree and quotes Islamic State head al-Baghdadi saying a day will come when the world will see Islam as a master who will destroy the idol of democracy.
Khaled Meshaal, the leader of Hamas, says a similar thing, Netanyahu says: “Our nation will sit on the throne of the world.” he quotes. Says Hamas wants to destroy Israel, but the group also wants a caliphate.
“Hamas shares the visions of militant Islamists.”
“Hamas is ISIS and ISIS is Hamas,” he repeats, throwing in Boko Haram, al-Nusra and a motley crew of other terror groups.
