Son of Hamas founder explains why Hamas does not want peace

[Clementine]

Hamas is not interested in peace. They are interested in spreading Islam and eliminating infidels from the planet. Israel is the first target, but not the last. Hamas has ignored cease fire agreements, yet the left looks the other way and blames Israel for defending itself. And it is in defense. Hamas won't quit and they should not be allowed to attack with no reprisals.

It's true what Netanyahu said, "If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israel"

Those asking for Israel to stop defending themselves are asking for the end of Israel. Fuck the idiots who support the Hamas terrorist organization. If Hamas wanted peace, they'd have it. They want a war and I hope they get their asses kicked. I wish they'd protect their women and children, but that has never happened with any of these radicals. They will ensure that women and children are killed and the liberal media will be there to take pictures and whine about the atrocities Israel is committing. Israel protects it's people, as Hamas knows because they haven't had the success they were hoping for with their repeated strikes.

We don't need to tell Israel to stand down and appease these assholes. The message should be that their archaic and cruel customs have no place in a decent society and it's time to end their stupid goal of making the whole world turn Muslim. Why would others want to join them in their ignorant existence? They start the violence, so let's end it. Appeasing them won't accomplish that. They need to know that their goals are unreasonable, unrealistic and the answer is no, they can't proceed with this shit. They are nothing but heartless, soulless terrorists and they do not deserve our sympathy. They use their own children as expendable slaves and even as shields.

Obviously, by now, you've heard the calls for Israel to stand down in its current conflict with Gaza. Everywhere you turn, Hamas apologists are making the same claim. Israel is barbaric, and needs to end its vicious attacks. Never mind that the rocket attacks are ongoing and, please, ignore the fact that Hamas keeps violating cease-fires. Israel is the alleged problem.

If only they'd just embrace a peaceful coexistence with their neighbors, we could put all this ugliness behind us.

So why won't that work? Well, let’s ask Mosab Hassan Yousef. He's the son of a Hamas founder and was being groomed for a leadership position in his father's organization. Instead, he defected. During the second intifada he rejected the role he was supposed to play and spent a decade spying on Hamas for Israeli intelligence. Eventually he found asylum in the United States and converted to Christianity. He's since become a New York Times best-selling author by writing about his own experiences.

He appeared with CNN's Don Lemon, and explained why peace with Hamas is simply an impossibility.

"Hamas does not care about the lives of Palestinians - does not care about the lives of Israelis or Americans. They don’t care about their own lives. They consider dying for sake of their ideology a way of worship.

Hamas is not seeking coexistence and compromise. Hamas is seeking conquest and taking over. ...And by the way, the destruction of the state of Israel is not the Hamas’ final destination. Hamas' final destination is building the Islamic caliphate - which means an Islamic state on the rubble of every civilization. These are the ultimate goals."

Fatah put down its weapons and the Zionists are still taking farmland from Palestinian non-combatants.

 

[Pennywise]

This is very disturbing. I hope the pro Palestinians of the world reject this kind of thought process.

 

[R.C. Christian]

That's funny, Israel created Hamas. Is this son a Jew?

 

[PaintMyHouse]

Hamas should strive for only one thing, that being Israel into the sea. Zionism is a cancer on the rabid beast that is humanity.

Hamas and likud ... a marriage made in heaven
