'What Does Hamas Want?'

[Sally]

I imagine it must gall plenty of Muslims to see a Jewish state, no matter how tiny, in its midst. Every square inch of land should be Muslim land in the Middle East in their minds.

'What Does Hamas Want?'

By Connor Headrick

The charter of Hamas, the controlling faction in the Gaza Strip, states, “[Peace] initiatives, the so-called peaceful solutions, and the international conferences to resolve the Palestinian problem, are all contrary to the beliefs of the Islamic Resistance Movement. For renouncing any part of Palestine means renouncing part of the religion[.]”

Suddenly, the current conflict between Israel and the Hamas faction in the Gaza Strip comes into striking clarity. In evaluating the violence currently going on in Gaza, it is informative to understand not only how both sides operate, but how both sides define themselves and their purposes.

Although Hamas rejects the peace process, its charter, written in 1988, proposes an acceptable alternative solution to the conflict: “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.”

Gaza is tinier than Israel. It's a refugee camp.

If Jews are so humanitarian, then let Jews show some humanity.

Prove up, Jews. Prove up.

How ironic!

Gaza itself is the proof that should satisfy anyone needing proof.

Israel GAVE the Palestinians all of Gaza.

Now look at the thanks she gets!

Israel cannot survive without conflict. I've stated this before. The Jews must be in a constant state of war to survive. For without war, Jews will lose funding.

And without funding, they lose "stuff".

Jews like a good party, but parties are expensive.

Threads that are specifically about Israel/Palestine should be

We have Zone2 forums because the topics are volatile and that's where the

Jews did show Humility by warning Hamas several times

Prove that Hamas shows " Humility" when their position has always been after the 67 lol Borders are established their goal is Israel's destruction. If Pro Palestinians and Hamas are so Humanitarian. prove it. Accept that Israel has the right to exist

Do you mean like they did in 1967 when they released 1 million starving Palestinians from the Egyptian concentration camps in gaza and the west bank. Many Palestinians had never seen electricity in use, or sanitation as a means of getting rid of waste.

They managed without funding for 40 something years proving your claim to be false. It was not until Egypt demanded US tax payers money as a bribe to sign the peace that Israel got the same deal.
