ISRAEL VS HAMAS, Part 2...Hamas



My wife and others like her have been decrying the fact that big bully Israel has been killing and maiming innocent Palestinians who have nowhere to hide.

Israel says they did not start the war and is only trying to keep its citizens safe from attacks being launched by Hamas, the military wing of the party controlling the Gaza Strip.

Yes, there is a lot of political pressure on Israel to stop the bloodshed but I am not seeing a lot of pressure on Hamas to stop the idiocy.

Hamas is sworn to destroy Israel and return Palestinians to their rightful land in Israel and they are sworn to achieve that goal by any means necessary which really just means violence and terror…forever?

Obviously common sense is not at work here. Israel is not going anywhere and continues to only get stronger with each year. The Palestinians are in desperate straits and have no future but stubbornly cling to a dream of return to the way things were before 1947.

Something or someone needs to shock them into reality; their children deserve a chance at a normal life and they will not get it unless the Palestinians start building a future based on reality.

Hamas and all groups like them need to disappear or somehow be eliminated. If the Palestinians cannot do this on their own someone else needs to help them and that someone else should preferably be an Arab state or group.

Currently there is talk about the West Bank government taking over Gaza which they used to govern until Hamas was elected to counter the corruption of the West Bank government.
