While clearing out Hamas strongholds in Gaza, Israeli
forces stumbled upon the credit card of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh.
It’s a Visa card, and the man reportedly put some significant charges on
the card. Though expired, it showcases what we all know about the
terror group: the upper crust has accumulated inordinate amounts of
wealth at the expense of the civilian population. What do you expect
from an administration that spent 17 years building an intricate network
of terror tunnels for its forces but not a single bomb shelter for
civilians?
It’s a point that even Arab reporters picked up on when the war
between Hamas and Israel erupted after the October 7 attacks. And this
behavior is not unique to Hamas; any authoritarian group or leader in
history has screwed over its citizenry. Haniyeh spent two years' wages
for the ordinary Gazan on just one receipt. But what’s a little
infuriating about the discovery is that we have credit card companies
wary of American gun owners but willing to extend lines of credit to
genocidal Islamic terrorists (via The Messenger):
Visa,
which tried to track "dangerous" Americans making firearm purchases,
apparently allowed a senior Hamas official to use its network. https://t.co/wm0TKqPQfo

Maybe this marked-for-death Hamas terrorist should have carried cash.
A
credit card bearing the name of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was found
by the Israeli military in Gaza, according to a video that emerged
Thursday.
An Israel Defense Forces officer identified only as Lt.
Col. Dotan held up the Visa card and taunted Haniyeh in the 16-second
clip posted on X, formerly Twitter, by Almog Boker, a reporter for
Israel's Channel 13.

The discovery was revealed
several hours after the Israeli military said it found five receipts for
about $25,000 in jewelry bought by Haniyeh's son, Moaz Haniyeh, in Gaza
and Qatar.
The "amount of just one receipt is equivalent to approximately two years’ wages for a Gaza resident," according to the IDF.
Ismail
Haniyeh, 61, has been the head of Hamas' 15-member Politburo since
2017, according to the Council on Foreign Relations think tank.
He
was declared a specially designated global terrorist in January 2018 by
the U.S. State Department, which cited his "close links with Hamas’
military wing" and support for "armed struggle, including against
civilians."
Haniyeh — whose family home in Gaza was destroyed by
an Israeli airstrike last month — has been based in Doha, Qatar, since
Egypt reportedly banned him from returning to Cairo in 2020 following a
foreign tour.

To
elaborate further, Visa was part of the consortium of credit card
companies that planned on essentially tracking the activity of American
gun owners, a backdoor attempt at a gun registry. The plan was dropped earlier this year. However, over the summer, FBI Director Chris Wray admitted that Bank of America is transmitting personal information and bank records
of Americans purchasing firearms to the bureau. The hearing was
primarily about whether the FBI had undercover agents in the crowd on
January 6, but these little nuggets were also mentioned.
.@RepThomasMassie: "The Bank of America...gave to the FBI gun purchase records...for anybody that was a Bank of America customer. Is that true?!"
FBI DIRECTOR WRAY: "My understanding is that the institution in question shared information with us, as happens all the time." pic.twitter.com/CX1w7K2g5S
