Confused Hamas leader posts pro-Israel cartoon
A clearly confused Hamas leader today defended his posting of a caricature by Israeli cartoonist Vladik Sandler that ridicules the immorality of the UN’s anti-Israel bias.
I tried to point out Dr. Basem Naim’s confusion:
Very confused Hamas ex-health minister tweets Israeli cartoon ridiculing UN anti-Israel bias. https://t.co/yNoQwVdEc7 pic.twitter.com/CSJJCWq7xo

Naim doubled down, insisting he knew what he was doing:
.@basemn63 Thanks for replying. But the cartoon, by Israeli artist Vladik Sandler, clearly mocks UNHRC's moral inversion & anti-Israel bias.

.@basemn63 Well, Doctor (of medicine and terror?), these are indicators that cartoon you posted means very opposite of what you thought. 4/4

Well, after doubling down, at least the terrorist leader finally admitted his mistake.

Who is Basem Naim, anyway?
When Hamas made him health minister in 2007, he promptly fired the directors of Gaza’s main hospitals.
And he’s the same terrorist leader (spelled Bassem Naim) who was cited as a source by the UN’s recent health report on Palestinians.
