Hamas Hangs Three Palestinians In Gaza For Collatorating With Israel

Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that controls the Gaza Strip, said it executed three people on Thursday morning on suspicion of collaborating with Israel.

Hamas confirmed the deaths in a statement released by the Ministry of Interior and published by pro-Hamas news site al-Resalah.

The three men received the sentence in a military court where they faced charges of “treason” and “collaborating with hostile foreign parties.” It said all three men had at some point been in contact with “occupation intelligence officers.”

Hamas militants then hanged the men at a police compound in the presence of Hamas leaders, who were not identified.

Sorry, they don't "control" Gaza - they were elected to run Gaza. An inconvenient fact.

they can't turn around and whine about not stepping up on the refugees from Syria. They've taken in a lot. Jordan is a country that can be worked with and I hope we take advantage of that blessing.

poor schmucks got sideways with. "Collaborating with hostile foreign parties" is a convenient whipping boy to resolve a whole lot of problems...
