Islamic State same as Hamas, Shas MK says

Shas MK Eli Yishai says that “there is no difference between the Islamic State and Hamas” and urges the government to declare the Oslo Accords a “catastrophe.”

Yishai was referring to reports of an alleged plan by Hamas operatives to orchestrate a coup in the West Bank and overthrow the Palestinian Authority.

“The Oslo agreement established a ‘Hamastan’ in the south and sent the State of Israel into shelters,” Yishai says, according to the Kikar Hashabbat website.

“The fact that we were a step away from the expansion of Hamastan into areas of the West Bank currently controlled by Mahmoud Abbas should make each and every citizen lose sleep. If, God forbid, Hamas were able to carry out even a small part of its plans, we would’ve been exposed to a massive firing of rockets at Jerusalem and central Israel, with a warning of only about 15 seconds.”
