“When you look at what is going on with the Palestinian people, look at the treatment they are receiving at the hands of Israel ... Israel has openly said that it wants to have a one Israeli state and that there is no room in that state for non-Jews, so what we have got here is a policy of ethnic cleansing and Hamas is a legitimate resistance against that ethnic cleansing,” Igan told PressTV in an interview on Sunday.
He also noted Saudi Arabia is serving Israel’s interests in the Middle East, adding that it is “absolute hypocrisy” to accuse Qatar of supporting terrorist groups when Riyadh itself is funding Daesh which is destabilizing the entire region.
