Gaza resident in an opinion piece in Newsweek magazine:
'Hamas has been terrorizing the residents of Gaza for years, but it didn't interest the world, because the Jews weren't to blame'

Since the start of the current war between Israel and Hamas, Hamas has committed countless atrocities against its own people in Gaza. This was true even before the war. Yet somehow, despite the fact that Hamas has effectively kidnapped the Gaza strip and all its inhabitants and routinely terrorizes them, these crimes are never reported by Arabic media or western media, nor by global human rights organizations, all of which tend to portray Hamas as a legitimate resistance group who are trying to "liberate" the Palestinians.

This absence of Hamas's crimes against Palestinians in the media is not for want of evidence. Many Gazans have raised concerns about the brutality of this regime, which they have witnessed first hand. And not just witnessed; there have been many videos posted on social media platforms showing Gazans criticizing Hamas and blaming Hamas for the current disastrous situation in Gaza.

Without a doubt, many civilians have been killed by IDF airstrikes. Yet each time that happens, those incidents make headlines across media channels. But somehow, when it comes to Hamas' crimes against innocent Israelis and innocent Gazans, the entire media establishment turns a blind eye, trying to present a misleading black and white narrative about this conflict.

Why?

If their heart bleeds for Gaza, why are they not outraged at all of the violence that Gazans face—including the violence of Hamas?

The sad truth is, when Israelis aren't involved, no one is interested in advocating for the Palestinian rights they claim to care about so deeply.

As Israel’s disengagement from Gaza enters Day 2, we go to Gaza City to speak with leading Israeli journalist Amira Hass. A majority of the Jewish settlers have accepted a compensation package–in between $150,000 to $400,000–from the Israeli government in return for leaving Gaza. Hass reports that the thousands of Palestinians working for the settlers are receiving nothing. [includes rush transcript]

It is Day Two of Israel’s disengagement from the Gaza Strip. Israeli security forces poured into the largest Gaza settlement of Neve Dekalim today, pushing back Jewish protesters vowing to defy orders to leave the occupied territory.

Scuffles broke out as protesters set fire to tires and several cars, and a house was set ablaze. At least 20 people were arrested.

Eviction warnings to the around 8,000 settlers in all 21 settlements in Gaza and four of the 120 in the West Bank went into effect on Sunday night. Residents have until midnight on Tuesday to leave or face forcible removal.

The letters delivered by Israeli soldiers read in part “The [Israeli military] and the Israeli police share in the sorrow and pain you are feeling and expressing. Nevertheless we will see this mission to its end, while providing any possible help and assistance.”

Many of the soldiers — who are unarmed — have reportedly been confronted by protesters calling on them to disobey their orders. There are some 50,000 troops and police in Gaza right now

Around 100 families left the Gaza Strip Monday, bringing the number who have left so far to about 30 percent of the settlements’ population. This according to the Israeli newspaper Haaretz.

More are expected to leave voluntarily today but security officials fear that confrontations with some of the 5,000 non-residents who had infiltrated the settlements in recent weeks could turn violent. Police said 500 people were arrested overnight trying to slip into the settlement of Gush Katif.

Nevertheless, a senior officer told Haaretz that he believes the evacuation would be completed within 10 days.

In a televised address on Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon defended the disengagement plan.

But last month it was reported Israel is seeking an additional $2 billion dollars or more in aid from the United States to help pay for the plan–which would in effect double the amount of aid Israel already receives from the U.S. The costs of the withdrawal include operations carried out by security forces as well as moving and compensating the settlers.

A majority of the settlers have accepted a compensation package from the government in return for leaving Gaza. An average family can expect to receive the equivalent of $150,000 to $400,000 in compensation, depending on house size, the number of children and length of residence in the occupied territories. On top of that, there are removal expenses, two years” free rent and redundancy compensation. Many of the settlers are already beneficiaries of government subsidies for settling the land.


It was a very difficult time for Israel, and the disengagement was clearly a terrible mistake that has led directly to the current war, and the current Israeli government is determined not to make the mistake of leaving Hamas in charge of Gaza.

And how much did she have to pay for the lies and defamation of these families?

How many times was she threatened to leave the Birzeit university,
and Arab majority towns, despite her radical-Left positions?
