Gaza ministry claims "Help Me Gaza" website is a Mossad front

The Hamas Interior Ministry is warning Gazans to stay away from a website called "HelpMeGaza.com", saying it is a Mossad recruitment tool.

If it is, it is a very heavy-handed one.

The site is purportedly written by an Israeli Arab who says he wants to help Gazans improve their situation. It is divided into six categories: Financial Aid, Trade, Work, Crossings, Education and Health. It asks Gazans to fill out an on-line form if they want help with navigating through the Israeli authorities to help them, for example, set up an export business or go to university in an Arab or European country.

The site says that Gazans used to be able to freely enter Israel and it hopes that this situation could return one day. But in the meanwhile, the author of the site says he has experience in helping Gazans get around the restrictions in order to improve their lives.

The author is not identified.

The DNS information says the site is registered to Amir Seif of the Israel-Arab town of Kfar Qasim.

Hamas is warning Gazans that the site is actually a recruitment tool to gain spies in Gaza.
