Support for Hamas Must Be Utterly Eradicated in Britain


(Telegraph-UK) Arlene Foster - Hamas is a proscribed terrorist organization in the UK. Yet many have no fear of expressing support for this murderous group as there have been few consequences for doing so. Lord Cameron, the Foreign Secretary, has said that if Hamas were to be left in control of even a part of Gaza, "there will never be a two-state solution because you cannot expect Israel to live next to a group of people that want to do Oct. 7 all over again." He was right. Hamas must be defeated, not just for safety of the Israeli people, but for a peaceful route map for the region. We must remind ourselves how heinous the events of Oct. 7 were, and how the pain continues for the families of those still held hostage. The sexual violence that was used by Hamas on that day was also unprecedented. Rape is not resistance. It is a war crime. And yet so many women's groups usually so vocal about such things have been strangely silent about what happened. Why is that the case? Is it, as one of my colleagues in the House of Lords said, "It's MeToo, unless you're a Jew." I, and many others, will continue to speak up for our friends and neighbors in the Jewish community. It's at times like this that you find out who your friends truly are. Baroness Foster is a former first minister of Northern Ireland.
