[0:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=9) You say, "Well, yeah, that was better then and it served its purpose, but we didn't want Hamas to do this."

[0:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=14) So then we as Americans say, "Well, we have such a good system, we're gonna impose this on the world.

[0:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=21) We're gonna invade Iraq and teach people how to be Democrats.

[0:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=24) We want free elections." So we encourage the Palestinians to have a free election.

[0:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=29) They do, and they elect Hamas. So we first indirectly and directly through Israel help establish Hamas, then we have election, then Hamas becomes dominant, so we have to kill them.

[0:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=39) You know, it, it just doesn't make sense.

[0:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=42) During, during the '80s, uh, you know, we were allied with Osama bin Laden and, uh, we were con- contending with the Soviets.

[0:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=53) It was at that time our CIA thought it was good if we radicalized the Muslim world.

[0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=59) So we financed the madrassa schools to radicalize the Muslims in order to compete with the, with the Soviets.

[1:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=67) There's too much blowback. There's a lot of reasons why we should oppose this resolution.

[1:12](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=72) It is not in the interest of the United States.

[1:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Cg0o0gUA0enc/en/us-israel-and-hamas-claims-of-political-blowback?t=74) It's not in the interest of Israel either.
