Hamas must somehow be brought into the Middle East peace process because the policy of isolating Gaza in the quest for a settlement will not work, Tony Blair has told The Times.
The former prime minister implicitly criticises the strategy followed by the Bush Administration and Israel of focusing all peace and reconstruction efforts on the West Bank. “It was half of what we needed,” he said.

Hey Tony...lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way!
The world noticed how you brought Hamas into the process. Right?
Quit suckin’ up for that UN job, asshat.
Dear Tony,
Read the Hamas Charter and then explain how exactly they are to be brought into the peace process.
ASTUTE OBSERVER: Hamas is not part of the peace process because they don’t want peace.
Read the Hamas charter.
That's easy. The latest Israeli action brought several hundred Hamas terrorists into the peace process. They just need to do it again as necessary until all terrorists have accomplished their goal of martyrdom, and then Israel will have peace.
Posthumously!
Hamas in the peace process. Now, if Israel were removed from the process, there would be peace./s
“There is no solution to the Palestinian problem except by Jihad. The initiatives, proposals and International Conferences are but a waste of time, an exercise in futility. The Palestinian people are too noble to have their future, their right and their destiny submitted to a vain game.”
— Hamas Charter
If we just do something different than President Bush it'll all work out. Hmmm... I guess Clinton followed the Bush policy, Pappy Bush too, along with Reagan, Carter, Ford, Nixon, LBJ, JFK etc. None of their Israeli/Palestinian policies worked either. We'll eventually prove that 1+1=3 so long as we keep changing policies until we find the right one.
I think even if Israel were to disappear tomorrow, Hamas and its supporters would still be fomenting hatred and terrorism against Europe and the US.
I agree totally: bring Hamas in in a body bag....show them to Fatah, and let them know they have a choice: be like Hamas, or change.
The only good terrorist is a dead terrorist. Kill more terrorists faster.
Is ex-Prime Minister Blair running for the Office of ex President Jimmy Carter as a person who should take the opportunity to STFU.
More fun with anagrams:
Hamas peace process = cheap massacre pose
Herd them into one place then drop a JDAM. Problem solved
The Jewish remember that time, and remembered what happened next -- with the invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939. Joe Stalin of the USSR lent a helping hand for peace by helping himself to part of Poland...
Those who do not learn from History are doomed to relive it...
It is more like Hamas is out for a PIECE of the action with what they are doing...
I believe they started this with daily rockets/missiles fired into Israel.
They are clearly a terrorist group by the FBI's definition and the US, under Bush, has vowed to attack terrorist in any part of the world. Hamas is clearly a terrorist group...
