Hamas - We want death not peace

The highlighted paragraph is the most telling.

We find people in this country who operate under some delusion that the Palestinians have a base of information and knowledge beyond that which is fed to them by the most narrow minded myopic purveyors of death in the Middle East - they do not. They know what they are told and nothing more. They know what they are fed, and nothing more, and their source for information are other less than knowledgeable mental midgets - in most cases, their Imams, on Friday.

They will attack Israel with these missile barrages. Why? because Israel killed people who were firing missiles and shooting into Israel or at Israelis. Why else? because in response to Palestinians shooting missiles into Israel, Israel closed its border with Gaza - which is, for everyone who is unaware and living in mental midget land - the right of any nation - to close its border.

They demonstrate infantile analysis of the rights of others while placing enormous importance upon their barbaric deeds.

And they believe Israel will not take full military action against them. they believe that somehow they can survive such an onslaught. They believe? based on the nonsense their Imams are telling them - not from a cold hard understanding of what will follow.

There was a time I was tolerant of the Palestinians and their interests. That was long ago washed away by their reign of terror and hate. They claim Israel started it - I have heard that before - usually from children. No one forces you to become a murdering socio-path. No one. Not environmental conditions, not genes, not living conditions. If these barbarians were to ONLY select Israeli soldiers, only shoot at and only attack Israeli soldiers - it would be more reasonable. They choose to kill everyone, and Israel has the right to respond in kind, but they do not - when innocents are killed, it is usually due to Hamas using the women and children as weapons (to carry explosives) or as places for Hamas to hide behind.

When Israel does go in to Gaza, I hope they clean out the rats nest without harming innocents, unfortunately, Hamas want women and children killed. They need women and children killed to satisfy their blood lust, and their warped sense of purpose. It is unfortunate that Israel places a greater value on the women and children's lives than do the husbands and fathers of those innocents. Israel sees them as human beings - perhaps as future or potential aggressors, but innocent for the most part. Hamas / the husbands and fathers see them as future martyrs to die. There is a difference. One values life, the other values death. A statement made long ago by Golda Meir, applies even more today than ever before -

“We will have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us”

Until then -





Cease-fire in Gaza Strip unravels

JERUSALEM: Tensions between Hamas, the radical Palestinian rulers of Gaza, and Israel increased markedly on Friday after Hamas fired a barrage of rockets into southern Israel, sending 18 Israelis to the hospital with shock and mild injuries.

Hamas officials said the attack was revenge for the deaths over the past 11 days of 11 militants and the recent increased Israeli closure of Gaza crossings. They said that while they wanted to continue the five-month-old truce with Israel, it seemed to them that Israel did not and if that was the case, Israel would pay the consequences.

Israeli officials, who say they have been keeping the crossings into Gaza shut in retaliation for the rockets, thereby greatly decreasing the supply of supplies and fuel, said it was Hamas that was breaking the truce. Senior Israeli officials met in Tel Aviv on Friday and vowed not to back down from any provocation.

The confrontations, following five months of relative calm, began to spike earlier this month when the Israeli military destroyed a tunnel being dug toward Israel. The army feared that the tunnel would be used to seize an Israeli soldier as a bargaining chip, like Corporal Gilad Shalit, held by Hamas for more than two years.

The Israelis said it was a one-off operation, not a violation of the ceasefire agreed to in June, and asked Egypt to pass that message to Hamas in advance. But six Hamas militants were killed during the tunnel's destruction, leading Hamas to retaliate with rockets, which led to more closures and operations and then more rockets.
