Palestinian Islamist organization Hamas has condemned the killing of Osama Bin Laden. This may shock some people since the Progressives claim that Hamas and AL-Qaeda don’t like each other, which is a total lie. In fact, they are sister organizations to AL-Qaeda. Both have their roots in the Muslim Brotherhood and are of the Salafalist doctrine. Another fact never mentioned, is that they have common founder, Abdullah Azzam. This man was a Palestinian member of the Muslim Brotherhood. He was influential in the early ideological development of Hamas and is considered one of its founders. He then went to Afghanistan during the Soviet invasion and lead a group that would become AL-Qaeda. He was a mentor to Osama Bin Laden. Where Hamas and Al-Qaeda split was in the focus of the jihad. Hamas believes in going after Israel first. Al-Qaeda believes in a global struggle. Other than that, there’s no ideological difference between the 2. So Hamas condemning the death of Osama Bin Laden, is no shocker!
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — The leader of the Palestinian militant Hamas government in Gaza has condemned the United States for killing Al Qaeda chief Usama bin Laden.
Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh says the operation is “the continuation of the American oppression and shedding of blood of Muslims and Arabs.”
Haniyeh told reporters in Gaza on Monday that although Hamas had its differences with Al Qaeda, his group condemns the assassination of “a Muslim and Arabic warrior” and prays that bin Laden’s “soul rests in peace.”

Birds of a feather flock together. Hamas and AL-Qaeda are brother organizations. The differences they had was in who should be the primary target of Jihad. For this statement alone the Palestinian Authority which now includes Hamas, should be cut off from all US taxes. These Arab Colonialists should never receive US aid anyway. After 9/11, They came out to the streets and celebrated the attacks. Now their main Islamist group mourns the death of Bin Laden. None of this will matter, the Palestinians are the Left’s favorite pets. This shows the death of Osama will change nothing.
