American silence has allowed Israel to take more land, build more settlements, and construct the aberration Palestinians know as the Apartheid Wall.

These guys are living in some alternate reality. Didn't Isreal just hand back Gaza to these abominable muslim dogs? Who but the US forced Israel to do so? The muslim dogs seem to believe that by repeatedly profaning America, we will respond by repeatedly doing stupid things like forcing Israel to give up Gaza OR forcing Serbia to surrender Kosovo to the albanian muslim dogs. Well...gosh...it seems to be working.

Hamas is talking about forming an army. If they want to turn from terrorism to conventional warfare, that will hardly lead to peace.

The author of this article obviously gets paid to lie. Yeah, it's a big victory for the people who are unwilling to accept the existence of Israel.

Good evening.

Imo, the only way a Hamas victory will be an opportunity for peace is if the two Pali factions have a civil war. Then we may see not only a chance for peace, but also their culture moving from the 6th century into the 21st century quickly...

Well, I can hope can't I?

isn't Jordan the only Arab nation to recognize the right of Israel to exist or is it two Arab nations recognize the right of Israel to exist...Jordan and Egypt?

Yeah, right. This article is the worst piece of crap I've read all week.

One of the parables of Jesus has it that the prudent ruler who sees that his army cannot match the other will come to terms. What bothers me is that Hamas lack prudence, nor do I expect them ever to gain that virtue. I am afrraid this will end badly.

I completely agree. Hamas is pulling on the horn of the devil, and the devil has a way of roaring just when one least expects it. When the shooting begins, the pallies will have to understand, and they (the pallies) probably do understand, this is what happens when you vote for a political party of death.

Hamas, which catapulted to power in this week's Palestinian elections, will soon make public a "peace initiative" in which it will offer to trade strategic land with Israel, cease attempts to capture parts of Jerusalem, and sign a 10-year renewable cease-fire with the Jewish state." says Hamas chief Mahmoud al-Zahar.

But the Hamas leader said the plan, which he justified using Islamic tradition, is a temporary machination to ease international and U.S. hostility toward his group in hopes of receiving financial assistance, explaining Hamas will not give up its goal of destroying Israel.

Watch them make a peace initiative... and watch the world fall all over them...

Case in point... Clinton speaking in Davos about the environment as being the world's biggest problem (clueless as usual) also said...

Clinton also suggested the West should be more open to eventual dialogue with Hamas, the radical Palestinian group whose election victory stunned the world this week and clouded the prospects of any resolution to the conflict with Israel.

"One of the politically correct things in American politics ... is we just don't talk to some people that we don't like, particularly if they ever killed anybody in a way that we hate," he said. "I do think that if you've got enough self-confidence in who you are and what you believe in, you ought not to be scared to talk to anybody."

"You've got to find a way to at least open doors ... and I don't see how we can do it without more contact," he said. Hamas might "acquire a greater sense of responsibility, and as they do we have to be willing to act on that."

Next year Hamas will receive the Nobel Peace Prize... with gullible fools like he and Jimmy Carter...bank on it.

Good. If they form an army, and act as if they are a state, then Israel can consider them as one, and bomb the h*ll out of them the first aggressive move they make. You can make war against other aggressive states. They wanted to be one, they will be treated as one.
