PMW has documented the repeated use of foreign funding by both the PA and
Hamas for terror and glorification of terror. The following is another case
of well intended humanitarian assistance given to Palestinians that is
appropriated for military or terror purposes:
"The [Palestinian] Health Ministry stated yesterday that Hamas militias had
raided 46 ambulances, donated by Arab states during the recent aggression on
the Gaza Strip, of the medical equipment that they contained... and used
them as military vehicles to arrest civilians, after painting [the
ambulances] black.
The Ministry's director of public relations and information, Dr. Omar
Nasr... said that the medical equipment removed from the ambulances was
expensive. He demanded that the Hamas militias declare, courageously and
openly, what had become of the thousands of tons of medical equipment which
had been brought into the Gaza Strip as assistance for the Palestinian
people, and which had passed at its [Hamas's] orders to private warehouses
and its own medical centers, and was later sold to the helpless citizen..."
