U.S. Envoy Criticizes Palestinians for Rejecting Gaza Aid Drive

(Times of Israel) U.S. Middle East peace envoy Jason Greenblatt responded Thursday on Twitter to Palestinian criticism of American efforts to provide humanitarian relief to Gaza. "Hamas & the PA, who have been fighting one another for over a decade, are each cynically claiming that the U.S. is trying to divide Gaza and the West Bank, instead of acknowledging that we are trying to help the Palestinians in Gaza. What hypocrisy." "Hamas continues to fail the Palestinians of Gaza - arson kites & balloons & many mortar & rocket attacks directed against Israelis. How can the international community help when murderous Hamas leaders continue to squander the resources of Gaza? The people deserve better."
