Hamas Threatens U.S.A.

U.S. intelligence agencies are on the lookout for terrorists from the Palestinian group Hamas to carry out attacks in the United States. The group has been blamed for numerous deadly bombings in Israel.
An intelligence report sent to Bush administration officials recently said the group, also known as the Islamic Resistance Movement, is expanding outside Israel and targeting the United States, according to intelligence officials.
"Hamas is planning operations in the U.S.," one official told us.
Hamas was formed in 1987 as part of the Muslim Brotherhood, a radical Islamic group. It is based primarily in the Gaza Strip and some areas of the West Bank.
The group has not carried out attacks outside Israel but does fund raising abroad, including in Europe and the United States. It is backed financially by Iran, Saudi Arabia and other Arab states.
A U.S. official said the intelligence report is "uncorroborated," but noted that the threat "is something to be taken seriously."

Sorry, they will have to get in line behind the violent killers of the Nation of Islam and al Fuqra like John Muhammad!
Home grown terrorists who want to kill innocent Americans for Allah have the first priority.

This is really going to suck for the 17 or 18 Palestinians who do not support the violent approach to sovling problems. They're going to be unfairly lumped together with the small minority of 7,812,321 Palestinians who support violence as a means to solve the Israeli-Palestinian disputes and that's just so unfair.

Bad move. We will turn Hamas into hummus.

The only difference between "moderate" Arab Muslims and their extremist counterparts are the length of their respective Mullahs' beards.

Bring it on you rock throwers. It might be the final nudge to get this country to wake up and erradicate you.
