Hamas already lost control of reality. Now Gaza?
The Voice of Reason ^ | March 6, 2010 | Texas Peartree

Posted on 03/06/2010 1:37:47 PM PST by Texas Peartree

Why do bad things keep happening to worse people? The Jerusalem Post is reporting that the Hamas leader in Gaza in charge of the armed wing of the death-worshiping cult has sent an urgent letter to his paymasters in Syria.

London-based Arabic-language newspaper Asharq Al-Awsat also confirms that the message has gone out that the stranglehold Hamas has on the Gaza Strip is getting weaker. Recent explosions (more than usual?) and assassinations (fewer than needed?) may indicate that the slightly-less nuts Fatah may be making a comeback in Gaza. Or it could mean someone even less rooted in mental health is making a play.

Let's be clear. Are the Palestinians standing up for democracy and human rights? Never. So any anti-Hamas activity, such as explosions, anarchy and assassinations, are as likely the work of an even more sinister Palestinian group frustrated by Hamas' limited success.

You see, Israel's brilliant construction of the separation barrier in the West Bank, and their increased security measures in keeping out Gazans has brought the terrorist incidence in Israel down to roughly zero. For Hamas "success" means murdering innocent Israelis, the oxygen that keeps such Palestinian organizations going. For them this is a terrible situation. At least Fatah members can retire to their foreign aid built villas and access their Swiss bank accounts.

What does Hamas have to show for itself? The Egyptians have turned their back on the Palestinians. Hamas can no longer do what they love best (murdering Jews, and washing their hands in their blood), and the economy of Gaza is non-existent. It turns out that you can invest in guns and butter, but if you invest only in guns you will starve. How many schools, hospitals or parks have Hamas built? Zero.

Do I have sympathy for people . . .

The Israeli wall was the best idea ever. For a nation to exist is must control its borders. This wall-building by Israel has stuck a fork in the eye of the ‘wall don't work’ globalist elite, especially since it has worked so well.

If wall did not work then prisons and banks would not have them to keep people in and out.

Saudi Arabia is building a wall on their border with Yemen, for the same reason as Israel did. A lot less press and wailing on that one, though.

Let me propose a solution to the Palestinian problem. Liberals everywhere want to help. Okay, buy them a big chunk of Africa someplace. Pay them to move there.

Now, let’s suppose that happened. How would a culture that dresses its babies as suicide bombers survive by themselves? Imagine, when your entire purpose in life no longer has a focus. Therein lies the reason that no matter how reasonable the offer to move is that a hard core of them would remain and would probably force everybody else to stay as well.

Israel needs to do the same thing and quit supplying them with any electricity, water, or other forms of humanitarian aid. If these savages want their own state, then let them "have" it.

"Do I have sympathy for people who elect terrorists to represent them? No. However, whatever comes next in Gaza will likely be awful. Deserved, but awful."

Muslim Palestinians cheered 9/11; hope they all rot.

It might work as a learning experience to all concerned, but I’m not optimistic about Muzzies’ ability to learn anything not related to mass murder and pedophilia.

Well said. Opposition to the fence is rooted in the fact that it does work, and they don’t want it to work.

Thanks Texas Peartree. Probably the Iranian stooges within Hamas are purging rival elements, and this will continue for a while yet — at least until the Hizzies start their next campaign. The intifada has resumed in israel.
