Bingo. That's the only commentary necessary.

Hamas was an Israeli creation. It was created to undermine support for Arafat.

Untrue. Hamas is an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood. Not saying Israel didn't use them to their advantage at some time in the past, but that's not the case now and they've been the driving force of terrorism in Gaza since what? 2007?

This is the best link I can find of the clip, which has been otherwise shared on Facebook and Twitter.
