When you say kick a bomb or missile ...

Can football be used by terrorists? The answer is yes. Israel's timing is nothing short of perfect, with a secret service note issued just hours after the start of the World Cup in Brazil.

The Israel Security Agency or Shin Bet Security Service has revealed another Hamas technique for obtaining illegal funds to be used to finance its terrorist activity.

In addition to weapons, between Israel and the countries that have sworn its elimination from the map, a war has been fought for years by dint of publications and insights, according to precise directives of the secret services.

The last one was published a few hours ago. Samah bar Mahmad Maraaba, a player from the Palestinian national football team, recently attempted to transfer funds to the Hamas terrorist organization in Qalqilya.

The Palestinian athlete admitted that he had met some Hamas terrorists on several occasions and accepted money that would later be transferred to Judea and Samaria. Maraaba, during a trip to Qatar, also said he had met Talal Ibrahim Abd Alrahman Sharim, a Hamas terrorist released by Israel as part of the prisoner exchange for the release of Gilad Shalit, in October of the 2011.

Sharim, after his release, continued his involvement with Hamas. Alongside his terrorist activity, Hasan Sharim was also president of a Palestinian soccer team. The Israeli secret services 21 last May arrested Muid Sharim, before he could receive the funds from Maraaba.

Meanwhile, 48 hours ago, an F-15 of the IDF "terminated" with an intelligent missile, the terrorist Mahmed Awwar, 33 years, responsible for numerous attacks against Israel, in a house north of the Gaza Strip.

The elimination of the target was confirmed by the Mossad. Despite being a jihadist, Awwar worked as a policeman. He is held responsible for the last missile attack against the southern Israeli community on 21 last April.

The preventive attack was authorized by Israeli secret services to prevent further attacks already planned by Awwar.
