“Of course, Israel cannot be expected to negotiate with anyone who is dedicated to its destruction. But while I know you have had differences with the Palestinian Authority, I believe that you do have a true partner in President Abbas…” — Barack Obama, March 21, 2013
“As far as I am concerned, there is no difference between our policies and those of Hamas.” — Mahmoud Abbas, March 15, 2013
“Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it” — Muslim Brotherhood founder Hassan al-Banna, as quoted in the Hamas Charter
“Killing Jews is worship that draws us close to Allah” — Hamas’s Al Aqsa TV
“Erekat: Hamas Not, and Never Was, a Terror Group,” by David Lev for Israel National News, April 7 (thanks to Maxwell):
The Palestinian Authority, controlled by the Fatah terror group, is once again trying its hand at “unification” with its sister terror group, Hamas. As a sign of Fatah’s “goodwill,” Saeb Erekat, the PA’s top negotiator and a senior member of the Palestine Liberation Organization, called on Hamas to implement all previous agreements with Fatah in order to “fight together against Israel.”
Erekat made the comments Saturday at a conference titled “The Strategy of Resistance.” Erekat said that “we demand that Hamas, more than ever before, implement the Cairo and Doha agreements. The political movements have an obligation to resolve their differences at the ballot box, and not through bullets.”
Hamas and Fatah have been at odds since 2007, when Hamas took over the Gaza Strip, booting out Fatah, which retreated to Palestinian Authority-controlled areas of Judea and Samaria. Centered in Ramallah, Fatah has sought to regain control of Gaza – and is willing to reconcile with Hamas, if that is what it takes.
“I hereby declare, in the make of President Mahmoud Abbas and the directorate of Fatah, that Hamas is a Palestinian movement, and is not and never was a terror group,” Erekat added.

What a shame then for Hamas that they must spill the blood of hundreds of their terrorists to kill just six Jewish soldiers.

Fakestinia
The idea of a ‘Palestinian nation’ falls apart upon historical examination. Throw in authentic Koranic Jew hatred, and you then have a witch’s brew for terrorists. The Koran contains more Jew hatred than Mein Kampf and the hadiths contain many more verses that can (and are) interpreted as divine commands to commit genocide with Hamas as bounty hunters for a demented deity. How can a country be built on the concept of opposition to Jews? This is a recipe for suicide.
The Fakestinian terrorists will either end up in jail or dead.

Or living the good life as Sharia bureaucrats in control of what used to Israel, before the nukes were detonated and the mass migration of survivor Jews fled the nation in terror amid a hail of bullets, RPGs and shoulder-pack rockets.
That’s what they’re thinking.

The facts are that Hamas is the militant
arm of the Muslim Brotherhood. A Brotherhood
whose motto is:
Allah is our objective
Mohammed is his Prophet
Jihad is our way
Dying in the way of Allah is
our highest goal
duh_swami says
Israel has no friends in the area, none, zip, nada. Abbas, Abu Mazen, is a terrorist, Fatah is loaded with terrorists, and Hamas is all terrorist. Lebanon, Syria, Jordan are all thick with terrorists and terrorist wanna be’s. Unification of Hamas and Fatah will eventually lead to one thing. Hamas will murder the Fatah leaders and take over. Nothing personal, just business.
Alarmed Pig Farmer says
Hamas operates in a confined geographical space, so it’s funny how its members and the average Moslems there have been unable to stop men standing in the middle of the streets of Gaza launching missiles into Israel.
Same goes for Hizbullah and their Shia citizens up in southern Lebanon.
Same goes for the Taliban and their Sunni comerades who watched as tens of thousands of IEDs are set along roads to kill and maim Infidel soldiers there.

Maybe if we give a Nobel Peace Prize to the terrorist Palestinian Authority leadership, that will bring peace?

Well, if they’re not terrorists, then they are a military force with no objective, and no moral restraint.
Either way, it should still be appropriate to fight them with any means necessary.
kikorikid says
A very few weeks ago the IDF Minister said that
if Isreal has to go into Gaza again, they will
bring “total War” when they do.
This is the proper approach.
Isreal WILL have to go into Gaza again
because Hamas will not stop their attacks.
Isreal will relocate them to Paradise.
Walter Sieruk says
That this top PA guy make that absurd and false claim that Hamas has never been a terror group. That means either one of two things. One is the he knows that he is lying ,for Hamas has proven many times over , by the actions of it’s members that it’s a violent and murderous group. The other reason that this PA guy would make such an outlandish statement is that he is in a state of denial about the facts. Nevertheless, either way this PA person is very wrong in what he said and needs to wake up to the reality of the truth. Furthermore, The Hamas members are also in a state of denial because they refuse to understand that God has given that land that now composes the State of Israel to the Jewish people. In other words that land belongs to the Jews by Divine Right. This is seen in the Bible. As, for example, in Genesis 28:13-15. 35:10-12. Deuteronomy 32:48,49. This land also belongs to the Jewish people by historic right. As shown in First Kings 4:20,21,24,25. 8:55,56. Still, in all fairness there is one way that Hamas can convince God to change His Mind and turn His Back of Israel and thus have that nation be no more. That way is for the leaders and members of Hamas to change the laws of astrophysics, including that of the sun, the moon, and the stars. For God has said in the Bible in Jeremiah 31;35,36. “Thus saith the Lord, which gives the sun for a light by day and the ordinances of the moon and the stars for a light by night…The Lord of host is His name. If those ordinances depart from before Me saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before Me forever.”

It is well know that lying is a way of life for such people. Truth and Reality are not important to them. That is hard for many Westerners to comprehend. Politician are also excellent liars. Put the two together and we get chronic habitual lying. The big problem is that their lies are so brazen and open and full of falsehoods. Their words do not even come close to reality. Their whole belief system is warped and devious. They truly believe that everyone else is so stupid that they can say whatever they want to say. That in itself is very insulting. Yet our US Politicians and Media act like they are taken in by these lies. Very unsettling for me. Israel speaks the Truth and gets the shaft, PA lies and goes unpunished and are called Peace Partners.
Here is a good interpretation of the reason behind this lie:
