Hamas and Its Liberal Supporters are Responsible for the Current Crisis
American Thinker ^ | January 04, 2009 | Abraham H. Miller

Hamas cannot bomb Israel out of existence. Hamas has dropped ten thousand rockets on civilian targets in Sderot since 2001. Hamas' suicide bombers have killed hundreds of Israelis eating in restaurants, dancing in discos, and riding on buses. None of this has or will remotely achieve Hamas' avowed goal of destroying Israel.

On December 19, Hamas declared an end to a temporary and frequently breached truce with Israel and launched a major rocket attack on Sderot timed to coincide with the end of the school day. In response, Israel did what any nation state would be expected to do; it bombed Hamas' military targets in Gaza.

Jewish children have long been a favorite target of Hamas' rockets and suicide bombers...

Hamas' covenant is not about achieving a Palestinian state along side Israel, but about replacing Israel with a Palestinian state and pushing the Jews into the sea. It is not just Hamas' covenant that commits it to this goal, but its murderous actions.

We in the West live in an environment dominated by situational ethics... We increasingly lack the cultural impulse to defend anything. We are incapable of understanding a zealous movement like Hamas.

Hamas traffics in eschatology.

In 2005, Israel risked civil war by forcing its settlers out of Gaza. This was a bold commitment to the policy of exchanging land for peace. This is a policy loudly enunciated at every forum on the Middle East hosted by the peace and justice community.

American Jewish philanthropists, in a deal brokered by former World Bank President James Wolfensohn, poured fourteen million dollars into Gaza to buy three thousand state-of-the-art greenhouses from the departing settlers (said to be worth 100 million). These were turned over to the residents of Gaza, who immediately turned them into scrap.

It’s an argument that I have with my best friend who is Jewish all the time.

He’s a die hard lib. Why do Jews vote overwhelmingly for Democrats?

1. They are afraid of the Christian social conservatives.
2. They believe that it doesn’t matter. Whoever is POTUS will be pro-Israel.

“Some demonstrators have even accused Israel of Nazi tactics. But why the double standard?” they continued. “Where were the emergency sessions of the Security Council when for seven months Hamas missiles targeted 500,000 Israelis? Why was there no U.N. late night sessions then?

And why didn’t those same demonstrators who now condemn Israel take to the streets when Israeli civilians faced daily rocket attacks for those seven months?”
