As goest Israel ...
National Post ^ | 5/5/08 | Lorne Gunter

Hamas, despite occasionally insisting it can live peacefully with Israel, has never given up its dream of destroying "the Zionist entity," and never will. But what would Hamas do if it ever managed to dismantle Israel: pat itself on the back and close up?

Not at all. Hamas co-founder Mahmud az-Zahar has long said that should that happy day (for him) ever come, his organization would merely turn its efforts to the spread of Islam in the rest of the West, by force if necessary. To this end, Hamas has set up training camps in the former Soviet republic of Georgia.

And Hassan Nasrallah, the head of Hezbollah, has frequently urged Palestinians to fight not only Israel but the whole of the Western world, which he has described as satanic.

Aaron Klein, an American journalist who now lives in Israel, last year released a fascinating book, Schmoozing with Terrorists: From Hollywood to the Holy Land, Jihadists Reveal Their Global Plans -- To a Jew!. In it, he recounts how in hundreds of hours of interviews with dozens of terrorists their declared hatred of the West was nearly as great as their hatred of Israel. They were not motivated by poverty or political oppression as much as by faith and ideology, and nearly all spoke of establishing a worldwide caliphate once they had dispatched the Jewish state. They were especially enraged by our equal treatment of women and our tolerance of gays and lesbians.

There you have it. Hamas is a self-admitted terrorist organization, bent on destroying Israel and exporting radical islam to the rest of the world by force.

They are the enemy. Carter met with the enemy. Therefore, Carter is a traitor to this Nation and should be tried then executed.

The Bible speaks of the persecution of Israel. Israel will prevail. Its Gods promise to Israel. I don’t know about the USA, though. But we are a Christain nation therefore an enemy of Islam and a friend of Israel. I think in the end times, it will come down to Israel and Islam.

And poor Condi asked Israel to tear down the barriers because one soldier killed a knife carrying Pal. It is just too much. In the ‘50’s Dulles used to say, maybe we should allow Taiwant to attack China during Korea. Will the same be said if Iran gets these plants and nukes built? Should the USA release Israel? You bet we should. It reminds me of how PC State has become. It doesn’t want the wall built down in Az, Tx. because a rare jaguar in Mex. may be stopped from breeding. Just who is our enemy nowadays? Sometimes it is our own govt. PC agenda.

Yes, you are correct. Necessity changes everything however. The US will come away from this PC nonsense as will a lot of other Western nations. The West had a couple of decades of hubris and the East is now rising. The West will compete again but change for the better often comes with pain. Right now, Washington and many Americans are in denial.

Its not just Israel they want to liquidate. Its the West.
