Now let me get this straight. For years Hamas has been shunning negotiations and pursuing a violent course. Now they are threatening more violence if the Israelis don't negotiate. Hey, nice way to show your new moderate colors, Haniyeh!
From the Jerusalem Post, :
Hamas sources warned on Thursday that if Israel did not begin its negotiations with the Palestinians, they would return to their armed struggle.Furthermore, Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh announced in his inauguration on Wednesday that all members of his government were "potential shahids (martyrs)."
That will be quite a spectacle: cabinet members blowing themselves up on buses.
With Kadima just voted in, they couldn't have chosen a better time. With the ex-Jerusalem mayor promising to part with parts of the city he once managed.
Suggestion to Haniyeh: Create a Round Table. Set all the bomb belts in the center. Be seated. Detonate.
A true testament to Equality! Everyone gets equal treatment.
Apologies, arguing with closed minds has put me in a mood lately.
They are such crybabies. Put a belt on everyone in Palestine and watch them go boom.
That will be quite a spectacle: cabinet members blowing themselves up on buses...
Why the constant turn over in help in these public sector jobs?
Well, they say the occupational hazards of certain cabinet positions are murder.

Apparently, the newly elected Harper government in Canada has pulled the plug on funds to the PA and will not restore them until the terror ends and Hamas agrees to recognize Israel's right to exist.
I won't hold my breath waiting for Bush/Condi, Blair/Straw to follow suit, but we might see some other smaller European countries follow suit.
Bring it on, Palestine. Israel will kick your ass.
Don't these clowns sound just like the mafia?
Hamas is simply abiding by its 36 articles and will pursue, and create any provocation that it can to give cause to the driven desire of the dar-al harb with Israel. Be concerned that many of the apparent 53,000 plus suicide bombers in Iran will be directed possibly in mass to the ever determined jihad against Israel in the name of allah.
Like the Quran and its tenants, there will be no change from their efforts to push Israel into the sea. There is no true moderation for the followers of the Hamas Charter.
Other western countries like Canada, and the US have just done, should cut off all funding for the Hamas terrorist government Immediatley.
Though those who solicit for humanitarian funding of Palestinains and insist that it makes its way too those specific needs, and causes and not the Palestinian government,I have difficulty in accepting that argument.
How can we prosecute the likes of Sami Al Arian and others who have been implicated in supporting this terrorist group if we ourselves are complicit in it as well?
I do hope that in their zeal to reward the muslims for their hateful persistence by giving them substantial parts of Judea, Kadima at least does not forget that Likud final hit upon a deterrence policy that seems to be reasonably effective. When attacked, you respond by taking out the leadership of those who attacked you.
Did you hear about the Orthodox rabbi a few weeks ago who seriously stated - if U.S. government in any way gives aid to the Hamas government he will encourage American Jews to not serve in the U.S. army as this would be clearly supporting the sworn enemies of his people?
So, what are the actual odds that Israel will inevitably destroy the PA administration meeting? Hamas is clearly to be considered a military target by anyone in the world that does not want Israel to lose this struggle.
When will it be appropriate to take them all out at once? We've heard this idea pushed before, but it may not be such a bad one.

ok, first of all... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!
When pigs fly, that's when the people in power will start blowing themselves up, either that or when Israel comes a knockin on the door with some U.S. Bunker Busters!
secondly, when will matt stone and trey parker get a hold of something like this? I think it would make a brilliant south park episode (which for those of you who think it's just toilet humor and language, it actually deals with very relevant issues in a subtle way...beneath the toilet humor and language).
"Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh announced in his inauguration on Wednesday that all members of his government were "potential shahids (martyrs)."
We know at least that gun toting Granny is ready to ‘martyr’ herself!
We should give her credit at least she sent her own children. Most of the others pick someone else’s promising child - to explode themselves all over a pizza parlor in Israeli territory.
Ever heard of Gandhi? Never mind!
Are heavy-handed threats the only language they speak? Sigh.
