Hamas is no longer a marginal fringe group of nuts; they are now the establishment. The philosophy of Hamas is not restricted to a rogue party; it is now the official Palestinian foreign policy. Think about that for a minute. The terrorists have taken over the government - not by force, but by the will of the people. Now that the Palestinians have decided democratically that they want terrorists to be their leaders, can we stop pretending that their fanatacism is isolated to only a few loonies? Can we finally admit that maybe, just maybe, the majority of Palestinians really do want the destruction of Israel? Can we finally admit that they really do endorse terrorism to accomplish this goal?<br /><br />The commentators on the news this week have been pathetic. They've been pandering nonstop, saying "now that Hamas is in control politically, this will most likely moderate their previously radical views." How naive can you be? (I'm sure that the wishful thinkers in Germany in the 1930s probably said similar things. "Now that the NDSAP is in control politically, their radical views will probably be toned down." And then Hitler had Hindenburg removed from office, the Reichstag dissolved, Austria was annexed, the Sudetenland invaded, etc. etc. etc.) Anyone who thinks that Hamas will become a bunch of nice well behaved people now that they have the power in Palestine is a fool of the highest degree.<br /><br />I have one more question. I'll pose this to the abominable Hamas politician who has joyfully sent three of her sons to Israel to blow themselves up and kill as many Israelis as possible (for the glory of Allah!):<br /><br />"If it's so honorable and glorious to murder children by strapping a bomb to yourself and detonating it on a bus or in a restaraunt, why haven't you blown yourself up yet? If blowing yourself inside-out in an effort to destroy unarmed civilians is the highest form of bravery and service to Allah, aren't you being a coward by sending others instead of yourself? Aren't you ashamed of your cowardice?"<br /><br />Now I'll pose the same question to Osama bin Laden, al-Zarqawi, and all the other glorious leaders of the Islamist Dynamite Brigade.<br /><br />Come on, people. Lead by <em>example</em>.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20159327-113837990335395021?l=beoshingus.blogspot.com'/></div>Beohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07925540975242358243noreply@blogger.com4
