Hamas leads suicide For Palestine.
Hamas has murdered more Gazans
than Israel has killed. Now they
want to kill the Palestine hope
of a free state.
Some might ask; what about Hamas? Unfortunately the Muslim brotherhood-affiliated movement has consented to becoming an implement in the destruction of the Palestinian cause, and the sacrificing of Palestinian blood and the long history of armed and political struggle which led our region into long wars and which Hamas [now] wants to simply erase. Hamas has become involved in the Iranian- Syrian- Qatari axis as just a small wheel propping up a large base, allowing quick and easy movement, but not towards a solution that will result in a Palestinian state, rather in a return to decades of conflict in order to return the Palestinian cause back to square one.
The termination of the Palestinian authority [PLO] will mean starting from scratch in order for a new authority to achieve international recognition; this is throwing away years of negotiation, and all that was achieved on the ground, which includes the means by which Hamas came to power i.e. the Oslo Accords [and national reconciliation]. At this point we must also recall that Hamas executed a coup against the entire political system. And so this [termination of the Palestinian authority] will also mean the end of the plan for a [free]
Palestinian state,

Hamas could be the
cause of the end of
the idea of a free

Exactly. It's time to lay to rest the false idea that Hamas was "democratically elected" into power. That's only half the truth.
And, like all half-truths...
It's not the truth.
Excellent post.

Thanks.
I agree, half truths are often worse than lies.

Good question.
This is from an Arab Newspaper, one not friendly to the West.
One crime does not excuse another.
I post some stories like this because 90% or more comment and stories on NP about Gaza are anti Israel. This just points out that hamas also commits crimes against Gazans,
To be clear, Israel and Hamas share blame for the recent war and for the death and destruction caused by it.
