Hamas Mocks ‘Delusional’ Netanyahu As Israel PM Defends ‘War With Iran,’ Urges Arms At U.S Congress

The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas has dismissed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s vision for a “future” Gaza Strip, excluding the resistance group from governance, as mere “delusions.” The remarks came in a statement from Hamas on Wednesday, following Netanyahu's speech to the US Congress. In his address, Netanyahu outlined a self-proclaimed vision for Gaza, claiming the Israeli regime aimed to “eliminate” Hamas through an ongoing military campaign. This conflict, which began on October 7, has resulted in the deaths of at least 39,670 Palestinians, predominantly women and children, without achieving the stated goal of defeating the resistance. #Hamas #Netanyahu #HamasSlamsNetanyahu #NetanyahuUSCongress #IsraelPM #DelusionalNetanyahu #WarWithIran #USCongress #ArmsForIsrael #MiddleEastConflict #HamasResponse #NetanyahuSpeech #IsraeliPolitics #GazaConflict #IranTensions #CongressAddress #PoliticalDrama
