Exactly what part of the Hamas charter did you miss?Hamas was founded in 1987. Israel had already been occupying Gaza for 20 years. Trying to use Hamas to justify Israeli aggression is like trying to use ISIS to justify the invasion of Iraq under Bush. As to your lie about Israel not having made any meaningful offer to the Arabs... The key word there is "meaningful." Israel agreed to withdraw from Gaza in 2005 but never did. They sit down to talk about how to divide up the West Bank while stealing larger chunks of it for their "settlements." If you sit down with someone to discuss how to divide up the pie, no one will take your offer seriously if you are eating the pie while you make it. ...as well as the actual pull-out from 100% of Gaza. Yeah, the one that never happened. Brush the pie crumbs off your lapel and offer them a 50/50 split. The responses have uniformly been no, with more violence aimed at Israel. Yeah, how dare he not accept your generous offer of 25% of the pie you just ate all of. The sticking points have been that the Israelis are not willing to commit national suicide, - we have this mild aversion to self-extermination. You now have to put a nickel in the Unnecessary Hyperbole Jar. So, I'm sorry if the facts just don't fit your fantasy narrative - perhaps they might in some alternate version of reality. Better luck in your next go-round in landing in that alternate universe. "None is as blind as he who won't see" - and you'd give Hellen Keller a run for her money. That you referenced the Holocaust to justify ethnic cleansing is so ironic it makes my spit hurt. |
