Hamas, by Royal Appointment

The depravity of the behaviour within Hamastan becomes more monstrous by the day. As Gaza degenerates into clan warfare between proliferating Islamist groupings, the Hamas government which was reportedly elected to clean out the corrupted Palestinian stables is doing nothing to prevent one vile atrocity after another. As WorldNetDaily reports, earlier this week, one person was killed and six others injured when a UN school in Gaza was attacked by an Islamist group, Jihadia Salafiya, because the school was teaching the children ‘immoral values’ by allowing boys and girls to participate in its sports day.

Last month, Palestinians bombed a Christian book store funded by American Protestants that exclusively sold Christian books. Two nearby Internet cafes also were bombed. The campaign of violence against Christians and other non-Muslims is not confined to Gaza. There have been numerous reoports of attacks on Christians in the Palestinian-controlled territories. Anti-Christian riots have been reported in Ramallah, Nazareth and surrounding villages. Last September, Palestinian gunmen attacked and set fire to the Young Men’s Christian Association headquarters in Qalqiliya, a large West Bank city controlled by Hamas.

These are not random attacks but an attempt at religious cleansing targeted principally at Christians.

One Christian leader, an aide to Jerusalem’s Latin Patriarch Michel Sabah who asked his name be withheld out of fear of Muslim retaliation, called the threats against Qalqiliya’s YMCA part of a general trend of Christian persecution in Palestinian areas… Some analysts called the recent bombings of secular and Christian institutions in Gaza recent indications Hamas may be seeking to impose Islamic rule on the Palestinian population.

Has the Archbishop of Canterbury, who last Christmas blamed Israel for the flight of Bethlehem’s Christians, thundered from the pulpt about this Palestinian persecution of his flock? Is it being reported by the western media? Of course not. Have the grisly demands by the Palestinian terror group that appears to have kidnapped the BBC’s Alan Johnson provoked leader-writers and columnists to denounce Palestinian savagery? Of course not. The reaction ranges all the way from muted reporting to total silence.

And now look at just who the Hamas capo in Gaza, Mahmoud al-Zahar, regards as a role model:

The terror chieftain told WND the West can learn from his group’s Islamic values. ‘Here I refer to what was said in the early ’90s by Britain’s Prince Charles at Oxford University. He spoke about Islam and its important role in morality and culture. He said the West must learn from Islam how to bring up children properly and to teach them the right values.’

Hamas: by Royal Appointment to HRH the Prince of Wales, the future Defender of the Faith of a country that clasps terror to its bosom and ignores or excoriates its victims.
