The office of Mahmoud Abbas, the head of the Palestinian Authority, condemned the killings, while US President Donald Trump said it “didn’t bother me much” at a press conference.

“They did take out a couple of gangs that were very bad, and they killed a number of gang members,” he said.

Donald Trump endorses extrajudicial executions without trial, and he actually likes this aspect of Hamas. This is what he’s doing to people in boats in the Caribbean, and it’s what he wants to do to people he doesn’t like in the USA, if he hasn’t already started doing it. (Where are those hundreds of prisoners who disappeared from Alligator Auschwitz? Were they ever found?)
