The Bennett government should fall over this. On the other hand, an increasing number of nations around the world is ruled by a traitor class that puts the interests of others over those of their own people, including our own government. Why should Israel be any different?
“Report: Israeli Government Funds Funneled to Hamas through Ra’am,” by David Israel, Jewish Press, October 31, 2021:
Channel 13 News journalist Ayala Hasson revealed on Friday night that a Hamas activist thanked an association that receives its funds from the Ra’am party, which suggests that Ra’am is transferring funds it receives from the Lapid-Bennett coalition to the Gaza Strip. We covered the Channel 13 teaser ahead of Friday’s broadcast (Report: Ra’am Senior Official in Close Contact with Hamas), the core of which went as follows:
Razi Issa, a senior member of the Ra’am party, Chairman of the General Assembly of the Islamic Movement, Member of the Shura Council, and CEO of the Assistance 48 Association, has received compliments from Razi Hamed, a senior Hamas official, on the association’s activities. Issa also visited the Gaza Strip in 2019 and 2021 participated in the signing of the coalition agreement between Ra’am and Yair Lapid and Naftali Bennett.
Razi Issa was observed standing next to the same senior Hamas official at the inauguration ceremony for his association. In an interview, Hasson asked Issa: “What is Razi Hamed thanking you for? It’s a simple question.” Issa replied: “All of Gaza is grateful for our treatment of widows and orphans.” Hasson responded: “Widows and orphans I understand, but what’s a senior Hamas official thanking you for?” At which point Issa dodged: “How should I know?”
The report was based on an investigation that had been conducted by the Ad Kan group, together with the Choosing Life Forum of Israeli bereaved families. In addition to the incriminating meeting between Ra’am’s Razi Issa and Hamas’s Razi Hamed, the investigation revealed that the director of the Tulkarm branch of the Assistance 48 association is Azhar Shaharur, whose brother participated in the terrorist attack on the Park Hotel in Netanya on March 27, 2002, who is serving 29 life sentences in an Israeli prison. Shaharur’s husband and son are members of the Islamic Jihad.
Here’s another charming note: the Ad Kan investigation also revealed that senior members of the finance ministry’s budget department conducted the negotiations with Ra’am on just how much coalition money would be paid out to the Islamist party in the offices of the Assistance 48 Association in Kafr Qassem, with Razi Issa serving as the architect of the negotiations.
Ad Kan CEO Gilad Ach issued a statement saying, “For the first time in the history of the State of Israel, the Israeli taxpayer is funding a terrorist organization responsible for the murder of Israelis. The state budget must not be passed in its current form in which it injects billions into the Islamic movement. We call on the Zionist elements that are still in the coalition to stop this demonic dance and take action to rectify the situation. It’s not too late.”
Ra’am issued a statement saying: “The association is registered and recognized by the United Nations as an organization that provides humanitarian services to the poor, the needy, and the victims of wars and disasters all over the world, regardless of race, sex, nationality or religion….
The Religious Zionist Party responded: “Ra’am’s and the Islamic movement’s ties with Hamas were known to Bennett and Shaked even before the election. That’s why they came out strongly against Ra’am before it paved the way for Bennett to become prime minister. The personal political interests of Bennett, Shaked, and the people of Yamina are causing unprecedented strategic damage that will not be forgiven.
“Hundreds of millions will be transferred from the Interior Ministry (headed by Shaked – DI) to the current budget of the Arab municipalities, knowing that this money will find its way to Islamic Movement organizations and Hamas and will support terrorism. If there is one person among the Zionist parties of the coalition who still has red lines left, they can prevent the passing of the budget and stop this national suicide.”

If you have people like Bennnett and Lapid at power it will not end well. Take back PM Netanyahu
Fitna says
Agreed Maria, Bibi wasn’t perfect but then you look at the scoundrels who replaced him and he seems like a hero by comparison. I’d rather have him back, but Bibi needs to know how to stare down Biden…let’s not forget when he was younger, Biden was an Israel-hater, not much has changed except that he’s old, stupid, cowardly and senile now.

Robert Spencer’s comment about the “traitor class” in sundry Western nations is as accurate as a statement can be. The West is now, easily so, being done in from within and not from without.
Personally, I have come to detest this “traitor class” at least as much as the Islamic world and your standard authoritarian world as represented by the thugs running China. Actually, more so.
somehistory says
This is really no surprise. Too many mozums spoil the broth…by giving it all to their fellows to terrorize the public.
Fitna says
This is what happens when you run your nation based on delusions, fantasy and virtue-signalling. For decades Israel has been foolishly trying to prove to the ‘world community’ that it is a good, noble, righteous, non-racist nation.
Note that none of the Arab states were forced to live up to this standard. So they allowed rabid, Jew-hating Arabs to live within their nation and to even have their political party. Well surprise, surprise, they turned out to be traitors and disloyal to the Jewish state.
End the experiment now. Dissolve the Arab party, jail anyone involved in corruption and giving funds to Hamas and work on deporting all Arabs from Israel. Also put an end to the pandering to the world community which already hates Israel and will never take their side in anything.
Also stop waging PC wars. If you see Hamas has gathered in their mass rallies, bomb them to oblivion. In time, get rid of the Iron Dome because it’s just there to allow terrorists to keep bombing and terrorizing Israel. You need a permanent peace and you do that by wiping out Israel’s enemies until they stop bombing you.
The fault begins within Israel by the Right compromising with the Left who want to surrender to Israel’s enemies. You’re either for or against Israel and if you want to give away land, concessions, compromise with Israel’s enemies, you are as much a problem as Hamas is. The Right in Israel needs to get tough.

“Dissolve the Arab party, jail anyone involved in corruption and giving funds to Hamas and work on deporting all Arabs from Israel.”
100% agree.

Israel: Muslim Arab party that is part of ruling coalition funneled taxpayer funds to Hamas
…………….
How is this not treason?
VickyK says
In the U.S., although Islamists have been allowed to infiltrate every level of government, we don’t have a Muslim political party competing with Dems and RINOS…yet! It’s in the planning stages, as is a devout militant Muslim U.S. president.
Unless we begin deportations, this WILL come to pass.
We do have Muslim ‘everything’ else. Hundreds of treacherous Muslim specific groups and agencies aggressively competing for tax dollars and control. Plotting and planning. Imagining their own takeover of the Great Satan, as they refer to our nation.
The domestic enemies currently in control of America, have been rampantly increasing Islamist numbers to help break down North American culture, create chaos, replace Christianity/Judaism, kill us, and redistribute land and power.
We must BAN ISLAM before it’s members carry out more bombings, beheadings, stabbings, hit and runs, machete/hatchet attacks, shootings, rapes, beatings and indoctrination.
Before the offensive call to prayer (call to war/victory cry) can be blasted in more Muslim occupied U.S. cities than currently exists.
Proud Islamophobe says
The libturds didn’t want Bibi, and this is what they get. I’d like to say they deserve it – and they probably do because they never listen to facts – but the reality is, it’s Bible prophecy being fulfilled. G-d puts people in charge who will enable Bible prophecy to be fulfilled (Romans 7). — If Bennett weren’t such a narcissist, he would do what he needs to do to dissolve the government and put Israel’s interests before his own. But he won’t do that. He’s already cost Israeli taxpayers $5 million by refusing to leave his home and move into the official prime minister’s residence. How anyone in their right mind can put a genocidal enemy in the country’s government is beyond me.
