and using it as weapon of war. Billions stolen for decades, not counting last year.

Hamas did it, not Israel. It may be a war crime, but you will forgive me for not taking your word for it. It is up to ICJ and ICC to determine this.

And yes, it may sound bizarre, apparently less so for some than for others, but no one is entitled to blame Israel for Hamas crimes (hint, hint).
