This might seem like splitting hairs but he didn’t openly advocate propping up Hamas to weaken the PA and discredit the idea of a Palestinian state. He’s reported to have said that specifically during a private party meeting. To anyone who’s paid attention to his revolting policies, I don’t think it was surprising to learn but he’s never publicly said anything like that. It’s not like he campaigned on it.
