Where this was said
Camp David, Arafat, and the Peace That Almost Was
At 55:08 · chapter starts 51:40
After discussing Kennedy's claim about Qatar funneling money to Hamas, Theo looks up whether Israel itself ever supported Hamas. An article surfaces suggesting Israeli governments in the 1970s–90s provided tacit support to Islamist movements as a counterweight to the secular PLO — something Kennedy acknowledges may have been inadvertent strategy rather than direct sponsorship. The two then discuss what could have resolved the Palestinian question decades ago: the Clinton Parameters of December 2000, which offered Palestinians control over 94–95% of the West Bank with equivalent territorial swaps. Kennedy insists Yasser Arafat turned it down despite the Palestinian people likely wanting to accept it. Theo's live research shows both sides submitted heavy reservations, but a final deal collapsed at the end of Clinton's term. Kennedy encourages Theo to invite Bill Clinton on the show to get the full story from someone who was in the room.
Iran funds Hamas ~90%

Camp David offer: 94–95% West Bank
The Clinton Parameters offered Palestinians control over 94–95% of the West Bank plus equivalent land swaps, a deal Kennedy says Arafat ultimately turned down.
