Hamas top dog calls for "third intifada"

"Senior Hamas leader calls for third intifada," by Khaled Abu Toameh for the Jerusalem Post, December 25:

A senior Hamas leader called on Tuesday for a third intifada and the resumption of suicide bombings against Israel.

The demand came in response to the government’s recent decision to approve the construction of hundreds of housing units in east Jerusalem and Ma’aleh Adumim.

Ahmed Halabiyeh, director of the Jerusalem Department in Hamas, said that armed Palestinian groups, including Hamas, should initiate a confrontation with Israel over its plans to build new apartments in Jerusalem and its suburbs.

The Palestinians, he added, should resort to various methods of resistance, first and foremost “martyrdom operations in the heart of Israel.”

He urged Palestinians to “ignite a third intifada to save the Aksa Mosque and Jerusalem.”

The “enemy is waging a fierce onslaught on Jerusalem and accelerating plans to Judaize the city geographically and demographically,” he told reporters in Gaza City.

Israel, he charged, was spreading the “cancer of settlements to all parts of Jerusalem.”

The Hamas official also accused Israel of working to undermine the foundations of the Aksa Mosque to bring about its collapse so it could replace the structure with the Third Temple.

Halabiyeh urged Arabs and Muslims to declare a state of full mobilization to “liberate Jerusalem, the Aksa Mosque and Palestine.”...

Abu Rudaineh also condemned Israel’s decision to withhold tax and customs revenues belonging to the PA as a “criminal and aggressive act.”

Israel would have to bear the consequences of its actions, he declared.

But the "Palestinian" jihadists, not so much.

Hamas, only invented to destroy the Jews

"... a third intifada and the resumption of suicide bombings against Israel."

A third intifada?

When did the second one end?

This kind of thing always makes the weirdest of impressions, and it seems to get weirder every time you hear it. Hamas presumes to opinionate about Israeli house-building (just, you know, building houses, whether it's the best idea in the world or not) which is referred to as a "fierce onslaught" and a "cancer", for all the world as if they were themselves acknowledged by the international community to be champions of freedom and self-determination, when they are in fact almost universally (outside of the Muslim world, where standards are a little different) seen as terrorists with an openly stated policy of racist genocide.

And along with this comes the wearily familiar fantasy that Israel is "working to undermine the foundations of the Aksa Mosque to bring about its collapse so [they can] replace the structure with the Third Temple", which, honest to God, can only be put in a class with treating The Lord of the Rings as a history book. Has there ever been the slightest evidence that this is so? Israel has never been anything but superhumanly chivalrous about the Temple Mount, which was returned to the jurisdiction of the Jordanian Waqf governing it exactly three days after the shooting stopped in the '67 war.

I would be inclined to advise Hamas officials to simply stop talking, seeing as how they make idiots of themselves just about every time they open their mouths - except, of course, for the fact that Western democracies have their own cancer in the form of our Noam Chomsky-soaked George Galloway types, who look the other way from stated policies of racist genocide, ignore or mythologize war crimes against civilian populations, and mount flotillas to go to the relief of a region where the members of the ruling oligarchy build million dollar homes. I suppose Hamas isn't so dumb in thinking that it can always find a "fit audience though few" in that constituency.

My solution: Every murder of a Jew by a Muslim, build a new Jewish town right in the middle of Yehudah or Shomron.

Yes.

'Hugh Fitzgerald', who used to contribute here a lot, and can still be found over at the 'New English Review', and - atheist that he is - is one of the staunchest and most passionate and intelligent and historically-informed Friends of Zion of whom I know, has more than once called Islam 'a geo-political cult'. The whole damn cult/ crime 'family' is about seizing and controlling 'turf': usually by force (including ultra-violence, as Mohammed himself said 'I have been made victorious by terror') and fraud. Ex-Muslim Patrick Sookhdeo makes essentially the same point about Islam in a long, detailed, scholarly book - 'Power, Faith and Territory'.

Power and territory, power over territory and people, all the territory on earth and all the people on earth: that's what the Ummah is after.

So *the* way to punish them, when they're caught doing something absolutely vile, is to force them to *lose* turf.

After the Muslim ritual murder of the Fogel family, Israel should have established a big new Jewish town in the same area: and called it Gan Hadass, after tiny little Hadass Fogel whom one of the Muslim assassins murdered by slitting her throat as she lay pitifully crying in her crib. And since the baby-sacrificing thug and his evil companions were hidden and covered up for and supported and enabled by his entire village, and **praised**, there would have been a good case for razing the thugs' and assassins' entire Arab Muslim village of origin to the ground - not forgetting the mosque if they have one - and evicting the lot of them into Jordan, or into Gaza.

A corollary to this is that any mosque found to be associated with one or more terror jihad plots in the West, ought to be shut down, and razed to the ground, and the imam or other resident Islamic 'cleric' shipped off back to dar al Islam.

Nothing surprising here. Hamas would use any excuse to continue its struggle for the destruction of Israel.

Unfortunately, the only difference between Hamas and Fatah is in strategy. Both want to destroy Israel, but while Hamas uses military and terror tactics, Fatah is trying to destroy Israel politically.

The problem is that the vast majority of Palestinians support this situation. They prefer to continue fighting Israel until its destruction over ending occupation and establishing an independent state (see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXGrNsXfX8o)
