Muslim Brotherhood Vows Revenge for Yassin

Hamas is an offshoot of the world's first modern radical Muslim group, the Muslim Brotherhood. From AP:

Arabs condemned the assassination of Hamas leader Sheik Ahmed Yassin and vowed revenge on Israelis, while the United States quickly called for restraint from both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Mohammed Mahdi Akef, the leader of Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood, arguably the largest Islamic movement in the Middle East, issued a warning to all Americans and Israelis.

"There can be no life for the Americans and Zionists in the region," Akef told the pan-Arabic satellite television Al-Jazeera. "We will not rest until they (Israelis) are expelled from the region."

This is a mess....Hamas actually believes that their homicide bombings are justified, as they kill unsuspecting, innocent people. Yet, when Israel retaliates, they're considered the oppressors, the murderers, and the terrorists.

You'd think that this would've shown them that Israel can successfully target any of them. But apparently it hasn't.

Hamas and all the rest believe that they hold the moral high ground, and always will. Their violent actions are permissible, and everyone else is a evil perpetrator of injustices. Such hypocrisy. (I wonder what the definition of hypocrite is in Islam. That's a word that I have never seen defined. Does anyone know?)

The muslim brotherhood should also find themselfs behind the hammas on their way to the gates of hell.
