1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,040
they say there are no winners in war
2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:05,680
but that's not strictly true one group
3
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:07,359
always ends up on the winning side
4
00:00:07,359 --> 00:00:09,840
the people who bankroll the wars they
5
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:11,599
sit far away from the battlefield and
6
00:00:11,599 --> 00:00:12,960
flash their checkbooks
7
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,360
while people on the ground suffer what
8
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:16,080
about the conflict
9
00:00:16,080 --> 00:00:18,960
in gaza who is bankrolling it and where
10
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,039
does hamas get its money and weapons
11
00:00:21,039 --> 00:00:22,880
from
12
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,279
their biggest supporter is qatar and
13
00:00:25,279 --> 00:00:26,720
this should not come as a surprise
14
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:28,400
state-sponsored terrorism
15
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,519
is trademark qatar policy
16
00:00:31,519 --> 00:00:33,680
in 2017 they were pulled up by a group
17
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:35,120
of muslim nations
18
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:37,280
they cut off diplomatic ties with qatar
19
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,040
and imposed a trade blockade the
20
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:40,640
blockade was lifted earlier this year
21
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,120
but those concerns still remain
22
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,520
qatar supports hamas both financially
23
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:46,879
and politically
24
00:00:46,879 --> 00:00:49,840
so far they have transferred 1.8 billion
25
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,840
dollars to them 1.8 billion
26
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,000
so you could say qatar is sustaining the
27
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,120
gaza strip
28
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,360
since 2018 they have been paying 20
29
00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:58,320
million dollars
30
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,760
per month what is this money used for
31
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:03,600
on paper it is used to pay civil
32
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,040
servants to make roads
33
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:06,720
and hospitals and to pay monthly
34
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,159
stipends to people
35
00:01:08,159 --> 00:01:10,159
but the fact is there is no way to
36
00:01:10,159 --> 00:01:11,360
verify this
37
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,360
hamas is not exactly filing audit
38
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,119
reports so we have to take their word
39
00:01:15,119 --> 00:01:15,920
for it
40
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,159
money is hamas's number one priority
41
00:01:18,159 --> 00:01:19,680
number two is recognition
42
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,560
and qatar has been happy to indulge in
43
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:23,840
2012
44
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,479
sheikh hamad bin khalifa visited the
45
00:01:26,479 --> 00:01:27,600
gaza strip
46
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,600
he was the first state leader to court
47
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,280
the hamas government
48
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,040
even now when the violence escalated
49
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,560
hamas leaders were dispatched to doha
50
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,479
they met qatar's top diplomat to seek
51
00:01:38,479 --> 00:01:40,159
international backing
52
00:01:40,159 --> 00:01:43,040
the other big supporters are iran and
53
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:44,799
turkey as expected you would say
54
00:01:44,799 --> 00:01:47,040
last year president erdogan hosted hamas
55
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:48,240
military chief
56
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,320
now this is a man with a five million
57
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,960
dollar bounty on his head
58
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,360
guess who announced this bounty turkey's
59
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,479
nato ally the united states
60
00:01:58,479 --> 00:02:01,600
what about iran in 2018 they were paying
61
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,560
17 million dollars per year 70 million
62
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,240
dollars per year that's around 6 million
63
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,280
dollars per month
64
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,119
this is in addition to the weapon sales
65
00:02:09,119 --> 00:02:10,560
which we'll talk about in a bit
66
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,080
but the biggest source of hamas's
67
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,560
funding is humanitarian aid
68
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,560
this aid is intended for the people of
69
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,800
gaza but it rarely reaches them
70
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,920
hamas spends 55 percent of its budget on
71
00:02:21,920 --> 00:02:24,000
military 55
72
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,040
just 5 is allocated for rehabilitating
73
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,720
its people
74
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,040
it's the same story with taxes hamas
75
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,680
collects 27 million dollars in taxes
76
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,519
and most of it is used to pay their
77
00:02:35,519 --> 00:02:37,680
fighters and workers
78
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,440
so the benefits have not reached the
79
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,200
people
80
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,519
now we come to the weapons hamas prides
81
00:02:43,519 --> 00:02:45,440
itself as a militant group
82
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,360
so where do they get their rockets from
83
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,519
mostly iran hamas used to smuggle
84
00:02:49,519 --> 00:02:50,640
iranian rockets
85
00:02:50,640 --> 00:02:53,760
through egypt and sudan but both these
86
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:55,519
countries have a new regime so hamas had
87
00:02:55,519 --> 00:02:57,360
to look elsewhere today they make their
88
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:58,720
own rockets and they source the
89
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,560
materials and technology from hezbollah
90
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:01,599
in lebanon
91
00:03:01,599 --> 00:03:05,760
again funded by iran by all estimates
92
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,640
hamas has around 10 000 rockets in their
93
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:09,840
arsenal
94
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,080
they're mostly short-range missiles you
95
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,319
could get one for 800
96
00:03:14,319 --> 00:03:15,840
and this is where israel is bleeding
97
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,159
money hamas is sending up cheap rockets
98
00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:19,040
from gaza
99
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,440
but israel has to deploy the iron dome
100
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:22,480
to respond
101
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,959
and iron dome missiles are not cheap
102
00:03:24,959 --> 00:03:25,840
each one of them
103
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,509
costs thousands of dollars
104
00:03:29,519 --> 00:03:32,400
the bottom line is this hamas is loaded
105
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:33,200
they siphon
106
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,440
millions of dollars from aid they get
107
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,680
monthly payments from iran and qatar
108
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,040
and not to mention 27 million
109
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,280
dollars in taxes that's what they raise
110
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,120
now compare this to the ground situation
111
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,080
in gaza
112
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,519
what are the living standards of the
113
00:03:47,519 --> 00:03:49,760
people in gaza let me pull up some
114
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:50,799
numbers for you
115
00:03:50,799 --> 00:03:53,840
gaza's population is just over 2 million
116
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,280
the poverty rate is 56 which means
117
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,200
1 million people more than 1 million
118
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,120
people are living in poverty
119
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,680
half the population of gaza what about
120
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,680
unemployment 50 percent
121
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,560
half the people of gaza do not have jobs
122
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,159
they don't have enough schools or
123
00:04:10,159 --> 00:04:11,680
hospitals either
124
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,920
there are just 11 big hospitals in gaza
125
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,880
so 11 hospitals for 2 million people
126
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,519
same with schools they're overstretched
127
00:04:19,519 --> 00:04:20,000
almost
128
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,320
85 percent of all schools in gaza run
129
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:23,600
double shifts
130
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,680
and more than half more often than not
131
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:29,280
in fact they work without electricity
132
00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:30,960
but their worries do not end there the
133
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,360
people of gaza live in constant fear
134
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,600
an israeli rocket or a hamas misfire
135
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,120
is just seconds away gaza is the perfect
136
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,320
example of a poor land with rich rulers
137
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,160
hamas is the third richest terror group
138
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,520
in the world they earn
139
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,320
700 million dollars every year 700
140
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:51,440
million dollars
141
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,400
saving the people of gaza is not beyond
142
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:55,600
hamas
143
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,680
but that would mean shelving their
144
00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,840
military ambitions
145
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:01,919
a victory against israel is not in
146
00:05:01,919 --> 00:05:03,759
hamas's hands
147
00:05:03,759 --> 00:05:06,639
but giving their people the people of
148
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:08,400
gaza a better life
149
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,039
that's something that hamas can do but
150
00:05:11,039 --> 00:05:12,880
in the pursuit of statehood hamas is
151
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,000
forgetting
