Hamas said to be secretly operating cyber, counterintelligence HQ in Turkey
[IsraelTimes] British newspaper says facility in Istanbul is overseen by terror group’s military leadership in Gazoo, was set up without the knowledge of Ottoman Turkish authorities.

The Paleostinian terror group Hamas, the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®, is secretly operating a facility in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...Qatar's satrapy in Asia Minor...
where it conducts cyberattacks and counterintelligence operations, according to a British newspaper report Thursday.

Citing Western intelligence sources, the Times of London said the headquarters was set up two years ago and is overseen by Hamas military leaders in the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
Strip.

The headquarters, which is separate from Hamas’s official offices in the city, was set up without the knowledge of Ottoman Turkish authorities, the report said.
That’s the excuse, anyway. But since Sultan Erdogan approves, ignorance seems unlikely.
The facility is reportedly overseen by Samakh Saraj, a senior member of the terror group who reports directly to Yahya Sinwar, the head of Hamas in Gaza.

The report said the headquarters’ missions included obtaining "dual-use" equipment for producing weapons; coordinating cyberattacks against Hamas’s enemies, including the Ramallah-based Paleostinian Authority;
...green on green is a wonderful idea!
and conducting counterintelligence operations against members of the terror organization suspected of disloyalty.
Another wonderful idea. I’m sure I saw Mahmoud, Mohammed, and Abdullah plotting in corner against Samakh Saraj, so y’all will want to get right on that.
There was no Ottoman Turkish response to the report.

In August, the British daily The Telegraph reported that Turkey was granting citizenship to a dozen high-ranking Hamas members involved in coordinating terror attacks, which was later confirmed by the chargé d’affaires at Israel’s embassy in Ankara.

Hamas is feared to be planning attacks against Israelis in Europe, The Telegraph said, and Ottoman Turkish citizenship would enable its members to travel more easily.
Remember when Turkey demanded free travel for its citizens as part of the price for not releasing that flood of Syrian refugees into Europe?
Turkey sees Hamas as a legitimate political movement. The country has long maintained warm ties with Hamas,
...all Muslim Brotherhooders together in a mutual admiration society...
which have grown more overt as relations with Israel have chilled over the last decade. Israel has complained to Ankara about its ties to Hamas, but to no avail, according to the report.

In August, Ottoman Turkish President Recep Erdogan met with a Hamas delegation that included politburo chief Ismail Haniyeh
...became Prime Minister of Gaza after the legislative elections of 2006 which Hamas won. President Mahmoud Abbas dismissed Haniyeh from office on 14 June 2007 at the height of the Fatah-Hamas festivities, but Haniyeh did not acknowledge the decree and continues as the PM of Gazoo while Abbas maintains a separate PM in the West Bank...
and the terror group’s No. 2, Saleh al-Arouri — a top military commander who has a $5 million US bounty on his head.

The meeting was harshly condemned by the US State Department, but the Ottoman Turkish Foreign Ministry rejected the criticism, accusing Washington of "serving Israel’s interests."

In December 2019, The Telegraph cited Israeli sources as saying that Turkey is allowing Hamas members to plan attacks on its soil. Israeli officials told the paper at the time that Turkey has reneged on its 2015 commitment, negotiated by the US, not to allow Hamas officials to plot terror attacks against the Jewish state from its territory.
Hudna, guys. They kept their word until they were ready to break it, which is all you infidels are entitled to.
Hamas and Erdogan’s AKP party are linked politically. Both have close ideological ties to the Egyptian Moslem Brüderbund movement.

#1 One imagines the places is bugged six ways to Sunday, leading to all sorts of interesting people at the far end of the communications — a thought which only occurred to me on rereading it this morning.
