GAZANS SLAM HAMAS LEADER HANIYEH FOR PAINTING LIFE IN GAZA ‘WONDERFUL’:

Senior Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh's controversial statements on Friday 3 June 2016, describing life in the Gaza Strip as "wonderful" aroused mayhem on Palestinian social media networks over the weekend, where a group of Gazan activists launched a campaign against the Palestinian terrorist group. "Gaza is more stable and secure than the West Bank [Judea & Samaria]. Life in Gaza is wonderful and we are happy with it. Gaza is the city of security, the land of Islam and peace and the land of resistance. There are neither oppressors nor oppressed people in Gaza," Haniyeh said. To many Gazans who are suffering from growing economic distress and dire humanitarian conditions, Haniyeh's description of life in Gaza sounded like a pipe dream. A Twitter user named Hussein from Gaza wrote: "Wonderful is a planet Haniyeh and his people are living on, disconnected from the Palestinian people." Another Gazan citizen, Tareq Farra, posted to social media saying: "Ismail Haniyeh said that life in Gaza is wonderful, ignoring all the problems of poverty and unemployment." (J.Post) Continue to intercede that there will be growing numbers of Palestinians who weary of terrorist leaders and their focus on the destruction of Israel, rather than on building better lives for their own citizens. Pray that they will be equipped to make positive changes.
