But deep down, they really, really want peace. To think otherwise would be "Islamophobic."
"Top official says Hamas will never renounce jihad," from AFP, January 23:
GAZA CITY, Palestinian Territories — Senior Hamas official Mahmud Zahar said on Monday that the Palestinian Islamist movement will never give up its armed struggled against Israel.The statement comes as Gaza Strip officials openly attacked the movement's leader-in-exile Khaled Meshaal, who has decided not to run again this summer for the leadership of Hamas, for prioritising "peaceful resistance."
"We are fighting for our dignity and rights. Jihad is our path, our life, our pride and we will not renounce it no matter the sacrifices," said Zahar, quoted on the website of the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas's armed wing.
Hamas will "never give up its armed struggle against the Zionist enemy," he said during a speech in Zeitun, a neighbourhood in east Gaza, in honour of the "martyrs" of Israel's December 2008-January 2009 Cast Lead operation against the enclave....
Maybe this man can be pushed some more until he admits that the whole thing is a sham? Wally Shoebat would be the ideal man for the job.
Giving up Jihad is giving up Islam itself. They won't until they are completely crushed. And they will be. Islam is self-destroying!

Well you know, 'Jihad' means many different things blah blah blah...
According to the demon inspired Koran and hadiths of Mohammmed, unless one dies in jihad, these muslims would have NO guarantee of gaining access to their brothel in the sky to fornicate for eternity. Too bad it's for naught, because LORD has another destination for these jihadists and all others who do evil and it won't be pretty.
We will happily slash away at our wrists, if just to soil the Jews with our blood.
Western democratic nicety is no match for such a dysfunctional ideology.
How can you live next to someone whose intention is to kill, kidnap and terrorise you.
Next time the IDF go into Gaza make sure that you achieve a knock-out victory, not a technical knock-out that leaves your enemy capable of getting back up from the canvas.
Only an unconditional surrender by Hamas and the other scum-bag, gun-toting wasters will warrant the risk of going into this cesspool of hatred.

Well—you're mostly right, David.
Generally, though, they'd rather slash away at Jew's throats...
Yer scarin' me, Robert. You keep pokin' fun at that Hamas Big Macher by callin' him a "Top Dog" and surely you'll end up with a fatwa on your head!
I'm with you on that, mate.
Jihad Fortress Gaza is as evil a place as Hitlerian Berlin and I would not shed a single tear if it were reduced - as was Berlin, by the end of WWII - to a smouldering pile of dust and ashes.
