I'm from the "Stop the Hamas Murders" Campaign. We're opposed to Hamas murdering innocent Israeli civilians as they work, study, travel, etc. Am I invited?

As long as you're opposed to the war on Iraq, of course you can come. And it would be a good idea if you went up to one of those idiots chanting "Victory to the Intifada" in some sort of vain hope that Hamas et al. are the revolution, and told them you found it offensive.

I did it once...

I dare say the Palestinians find the Israeli occupation, helicopter and tank attacks killing their sons and daughters, and having their houses destroyed and water tanks deliberate holed just a weeny bit offensive too.
Perhaps that is why there's an intifada.
And perahps that desperation feeds support for Hamas. You sow what your reap?

And that was nothing like a well-reasoned response

Anyone that defends the Hamas policy murdering of innocent civilians doesn't deserve a reasoned response. Ditto with IDF murder of innocent civilians.

author by Pattypublication date Wed Nov 20, 2002 19:13author address author phone Report this post to the editors

I didn't notice Daresy defending any Hamas policy. S/he merely suggested the reasons why support for Hamas might exist. Big difference. Perhaps To Daresay might now consider a reasoned response?
