For those who still buying the narrative that Hamas is created or funded by Israel. They should double check their source of information again. Hamas never created or funded by Zionist/Israel. It was created by the Palestinian people itself to resist the zionist brutal occupation. Zionist has been occupying Palestinian even way before they illegaly established a state. While Hamas only created in 1987. Zionist try to portray Hamas as terrorist as if they want to make people FORGET, why Hamas was created in the 1st place, to defend themselves, their land, to resist Zionist BRUTAL OCCUPATION. IT WAS NEVER ABOUT HAMAS. IT ONLY ABOUT THE BRUTAL OCCUPATION OF ZIONIST FOR AT LEAST 98 years in the land that never belong to them.
Both Hamas and Palestinian has never been a problem to me. But of course they are the problem for their oppresors/the zionist.
Regardless they want to make us believed all Palestinian are Hamas or not, that's not make any different at all for their status as an oppresor, as a colonizer of the PALESTINIAN land.
You're dramatically over-simplifying the situation and the history. Of course the Israeli government played a huge role in creating and helping Hamas. One aim was to fracture Palestinian society and keep the Gazans from joining up with the West Bank, originally to prevent unity and, believe it or not, socialism - and of course.....a Palestinian state. The original plan was to force Gaza to unite around as violent a group as possible so as to help the Zionists smear ALL Gazans as inherently violent. See: the present situation.
Eventually Hamas became a much more broad socio-political movement and started providing government services in the absence of any other effective group or organization and in those ways is unimpeachably a force for good. I personally agree with the spirit of your comment that Hamas or anyone else has every right to resist their occupation and imprisonment with any and all means including violence. But denying the Israeli role in the creation and cultivation of Hamas is like denying the US role in creating "Al Qaeda." And no, that's not a value judgement or an equivalency in any aspect other than the role of creation.
From the link above: It is sometimes argued that while Israel initially supported the creation of Hamas, the Islamist group got out of control and Israeli officials came to regret their support (the “blowback theory”).
While this is certainly true for some Israeli officials and for the Israeli population affected by Hamas rockets and terrorist attacks, it is not true for Israeli grand strategists, as the quotes below make clear: for them, Hamas has continued to serve its intended purpose even after the Oslo Accords in 1993 and after Israel’s withdrawal from the Gaza Strip in 2005.
For the grand strategists, the presence of Hamas in the remaining Palestinian territories might provide, one day, the necessary pretext for a “final solution” to the Palestinian question.
I think some funding may have been allowed through. However, it doesn't matter. Yes, Hamas has shown the world the true face of the Empire, but the Empire is now absolutely owning it. They're saying, yes, this is us, and we will burn you alive if you defy us.

I think you might need to check your sources of information.
