Hamas leader denies knowledge of Palestinian money used for Afrin settlements

5/29/2024 See more of Dr. Baxtiyar Baram‘s observations here.
[Rudaw] Basim Naim, former Paleostinian health minister and a Hamas
..the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
politburo member, said on Wednesday that he was unaware of Paleostinian funds being spent on building settlements in the Kurdish city of Afrin in Syria, stating that Paleostinians cannot build their homes at the expense of other people.

Speaking to Rudaw’s Sangar Abdulrahman from Doha, Naim said that he was unaware of claims by a Kurdish doctor who served in 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 Hamas with 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...
, that funds collected by Gazooks were being used to build Paleostinian settlements in Afrin

"We cannot build our rights, our homes, and our freedom at the expense of any other human. We cannot accept the construction of our homes and residents at the expense of other people," Naim said.

During a Rudaw news bulletin on Tuesday, Dr Baxtiyar Baram, a Kurdish doctor who traveled to Gaza from April 28 to May 22 with the Norwegian NORWAC Association, stated that Hamas and Gazooks "hate Kurds" and that his Kurdish name was a problem for him during his stay at the Strip.

"The Paleostinians recognize that the Kurds have done great favors to Paleostine and its people... We consider the role of the Kurdish people in defending Paleostine, not as a secondary, marginal or political, but the Kurdish role is an authentic, historic and permanent role," Naim said, denying Baram’s claims.

"We are indebted to the Kurdish people for all the sacrifices they have given throughout centuries for Paleostine, and for the freedom and the dignity of the Paleostinian people," he added.

Israel accuses Hamas leaders of hiding in hospitals and using civilians as a human shield against the Israeli campaign, a claim that was reiterated by Dr Baram during his stay in the Gaza Strip.

Dr. Baram said he is an eyewitness to Hamas leaders take shelters at hospitals and he has personally spoken with one of the founders of the group inside one of the hospitals.

"Hamas, as a political and military organization, needed to exploit everywhere to shelter them in their strategic positions... I have seen it with my eyes that the hospitals have been used for hiding Hamas leaders," Baram said. "Yes, yes, we saw them and even spoke with them, including one of the founders of Hamas, Mr. Munir Albursh."

Naim did not reject Baram’s claim of Albursh being at the hospital at the time. Still, he elaborated that Albursh was the director general of the health ministry and it is a wartime practice that the health ministry officials move into the hospitals to be present on the field.

"When I was a [health] minister, during wartime the ministry administration is moved into the hospitals in order to be able to perform on-field and administrative work for these emergency operations," Naim said, stating that Baram was not "informed about the nature of fieldwork" during the war.

Naim thanked the doctor "who risked his life, and was adamant to join a European medical team under the banner of the Norwegian NORWAC, to help and aid our maimed Paleostinian people."
