Original Note:
This post is false. Israel did not create Hamas. It was founded by Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, a Palestinian cleric who became an activist in local branches of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. Hamas first employed suicide bombing in April 1993 5 mos. before the Oslo Accords. https://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/what-hamas
