The Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar has for years overseen a secret police force in Gaza that conducted surveillance on everyday Palestinians and built files on young people, journalists and those who questioned the government, according to intelligence officials and a trove of internal documents reviewed by The New York Times.
The unit, known as the General Security Service, relied on a network of Gaza informants, some of whom reported their own neighbors to the police. People landed in security files for attending protests or publicly criticizing Hamas. In some cases, the records suggest that the authorities followed people to determine if they were carrying on romantic relationships outside marriage.
Hamas has long run an oppressive system of governance in Gaza, and many Palestinians there know that security officials watch them closely. But a 62-slide presentation on the activities of the General Security Service, delivered only weeks before the Oct. 7 attack on Israel, reveals the degree to which the largely unknown unit penetrated the lives of Palestinians.

Everyday Gazans were stuck — behind the wall of Israel’s crippling blockade and under the thumb and constant watch of a security force. That dilemma continues today, with the added threat of Israeli ground troops and airstrikes.
Yes they are arguing that by allowing aid info Gaza this props up hamas they are right wing people saying that Isreal should have been harder on hamas - you probably think Isreal should allow more aid into Palestine so either you want to prop up hamas, you don’t really belive this logic or consistency doesn’t matter to you and you’ll use any excuse to criticize Isreal.
You’re simply arguing in bad faith and dishonesty
Also you forgot to switch to your alt account
What are you blathering about?
Feign ignorance, move goalposts. I don’t debate liars
You made baseless accusations about alt accounts that doesn’t even make sense and now me not knowing what you’re trying to say is evidence I’m a liar? Are you OK? Or are you just deceptive and looking for an out on a debate because you realize that your bluster won’t work and you have no facts or cohesive arguments?
