Biden’s plan for no-strings funding to the Palestinians is a win for terrorism – I’ll work with my colleagues in Congress to ensure that US aid furthers American interests, and doesn’t enrich those who attack American friends | Timesofisrael

Last month, the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas incited a deadly conflict using little more than a Jerusalem property dispute as pretext. During an 11-day war started by Hamas and its allies, terrorists fired more than 4,300 rockets at Israel from Palestinian population centers in Gaza, endangering millions of Palestinian and Israeli civilians alike. Approximately 680 – over 15 percent – of those rockets didn’t even reach Israel, and instead fell on Palestinian men, women, and children. Hundreds were killed in Hamas’s war of choice. Then, after Egypt brokered a ceasefire to end the war, Hamas’s leader thanked Iran for supplying weapons.
