Hanas is not spending 2 million on celebrations.Hanas is stealing money donated for humanterian reasons and medical supploes. Naturally the UN and the EU with the assitance of the USA will have nothing to say but to give them more money to waste on arms and ammunitions
2. NOUR, NOUR, NOUR
(12.19.09)
this is your democracy, nour!!!!! what have you to say about this??? dignity can't be bought, as you claim???? what dignity nour, what democracy, nour? hameed aboughaze, iranian
3. Powerplay and corruption busines as usual
Israeli grandmother   (12.19.09)
So it was $2m for a big crowd scene in Gaza last week? (and of course no promised "surprises"delivered). Nothing new here, same old tactics we saw under godless communist regimes, and of course N. Korea does it even better. Their people actually are starving!
4. Gazans get the govt they deserve
William ,   Israel   (12.20.09)
How truly poetic this justice is.... Now, I challenge anyone, anywhere to provide a photo of just one Gazan who is starving, even looks slightly malnourished, or even died from lack of nutrition. Everytime I hear how horrible the situation in Gaza is....the Gazans themselves run stories about their expanding car parts and appliances smuggling, with pictures of many open stalls filled with food and people.....not one of them even remotely thin. Nour - I'm sure you have photos, even after a little help from Photoshop (using the Reuters method). Please....share.
5. #3 - That WAS the surprise...the price tag!
William ,   Israel   (12.20.09)
"Oh and by the way, oh loyal followers of Allah whom believe in Jihad (holy war) and give your children for this honor to Allah....we just spent a chunk of your humanitarian aid and will cancel all medical care until the decadent West pays us again. Surprise!!"
6. They Love Money & Power More Than ..
Christy ,   Boston, US   (12.20.09)
they care for their people. They need to keep their people poor and desperate to get even more money - that will be spent mainly on themselves. It's an endless cycle and it's the Pales. people who suffer while their leaders &UN Overseers get richer. It's criminal the way Pales. leaders, and others, have misused all the money that's been earmarked for them. The money should be spent on food, medicine, homes, hospitals, schools, job training, and anything else to make the Pales.' peoples lives better.
7. not our problem
ghostq   (12.20.09)
palis chose the terror org, and now it steal from them, mmm when palis steal from each other. again not our problem let them and the Other doners eat what they cooked.
8. THIS IS WONDERFUL NEWS FOR ISRAEL
zionist forever   (12.20.09)
Two million spent on a party is two million they don't have to spend on weapons. Kol Hakavod Hamas you make this the biggest and best party anybody in the world has ever seen and spend, spend, spend money should be no object.
9. to #8 you r right, ti hi

10. This is not TRUE
Sen. Member Hamas ,   Gaza - Palestine   (12.21.09)
Dear Ynet People, This is not true, i can asure you this, hamas did not spend 2M$ on her anniversary. we all now that your sources are relaiable in usual, but taking Fateh statements and others as a source will put your credibility in risk. make sure next time when you publish such news, and if you want to know the real number, i can tell you it's around 0.1 M$ that's it.
11. Hamas has million$ for propaganda!
Zvi   (12.22.09)
Hamas TV makes hateful programs. Hamas newspapers spew filth. Hamas spends to shut up Fatah rallies. Hamas spends to hold anniversaries of its founding. But they beg $ from the West and the Arab world and the UN.
12. Hell, I remember the poor bastards they threw off the roof
