Not the same.
You have to remember that Hamas was the resistance in Palestine. Palestine DID have another authority, and Israel wanted Hamas to overthrow them.
That's what Israel financed. They didn't do it after Hamas actually attacked, and fought back against them.
I don’t think that that Israel wanted Hamas to overthrow the Fatah.
Israel wants two parties of Palestinians fight each other so it could credibly claim to not having anybody to negotiate with, meanwhile building up some new settlements.
And that plan worked out for them for many many years.
there is just the small difference that you would be lying, but who cares about the truth?
