When the hamas party won the 2006 Palestinian parliamentary election why did that worsen the Palestinians' relationship with Israel?
Hamas refuses to recognize Israel whereas the previous Palestinian party in power, Fatah, is willing to recognize Israel and negotiate with them to degree. Therefore, when Hamas replaced Fatah as the legitimate government of the Palestinians by elections in 2006, Israeli relations with the Palestinian Authority soured in anticipation of the more doggedly Anti-Israel stance of Hamas.

Why did Benjamin Netanyahu say that he cares more for Palestinians than their own leaders?
In his statement, Netanyahu says that Hamas is stealing humanitarian aid money and using it to promote hatred and war... that Hamas is allowing their own people to suffer and die in order to continue killing Jews.Here is the entire statement:"I, the Prime Minister of Israel, care more about Palestinians than their own leaders do. Israel cares more about Palestinians than their own leaders do."That sounds incredible, right?"But consider the following:"A few days ago, the world learned that Hamas, the terrorist organization that rules Gaza, stole millions of dollars from humanitarian organizations like World Vision and the United Nations."Innocent and impoverished Palestinians were denied vital aid supplied from nations around the world."Hamas used this stolen money to build a war machine to murder Jews."I want you to think about that. Let that sink in."Hamas stole critical support for Palestinian children so that they could kill our children."So I ask you-who cares more about Palestinians?"Israel, that facilitates the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza, every single day?"Or Hamas, that robs Palestinian children of that very same aid?"Israel, that treats wounded Palestinians from Gaza in its hospitals?"Or Hamas that prevents injured Palestinians from getting help?"Imagine, just imagine, where we might all be if Palestinian leaders cared as much about helping their own people as they did about hurting our people. The Palestinian people deserve better."And today, I express my deepest sympathy with innocent Palestinians and those well-meaning nations who generously donated money to help them."The cynicism and cruelty of Hamas is hurting all of us. It's hurting peace."
