Hamas Has No Interest in Anything Except Dead Israelis
(Telegraph-UK) Adrian Michaels - The largest rocket yet let loose out of Hamas-controlled Gaza since the Israeli offensive at the start of last year hits the city of Ashkelon, miraculously not killing anyone but not through want of trying. Hamas has said it is trying to stop groups within Gaza from launching such rockets. It really needs to try an awful lot harder. What should we make then of Hamas and its ceaseless efforts to eradicate Israelis and Israel the next time people are advocating bringing it into peace talks? Or what should we think about Israel's argument that it is trying to stop materials that get into Gaza that can be made into weapons, hence the "inhuman" blockade of "prison camp" Gaza? To read most commentary on the subject you'd be forgiven for thinking that Israel is the sole villain in this never-ending multi-act play. It isn't.
