Why not Hamas? You KNOW that if Hamas ceased fire, Israel would stop its attacks within hours. Than, if Hamas would change its charter, and recognize Israel's right to exist, the borders would open up, safe passage to Judea and Samaria will be activated, and the entire Oslo accord could be re-activated. It is Hamas - and the other Refusal organization - that stopped the peace process, and it is Hamas who sought out this confrontation. It would be extremely interesting if you could, in some of your future posts, explain how Hamas explain to the people of Gaza why does it have to fire rockets on Israel. It would be interesting to learn, after the war, how they explain why this was serving the best interests of Gaza.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07253888014125268721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5968220524668733495.post-26453923142337800952009-01-05T02:42:00.000+02:002009-01-05T02:42:00.000+02:00I believe Suzanne (above) is wrong about Hamas blo...I believe Suzanne (above) is wrong about Hamas blocking access to Egypt.

Israel gave Gaza back to the Palistinians, but the Palistinians continue to attack Israel. It is only logical for Israel to protect herself. Israel is willing to live with her Arab neighbors in peace, but Arabs are not willing to let Israel exist. Palistinians need to stop complaining about the measures they have forced Israel to take; if the peole of Gaza don't want to be bombed, they should stop their attacks on Israel.Sue Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05847034043568945509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5968220524668733495.post-68824005746234351662009-01-03T14:17:00.000+02:002009-01-03T14:17:00.000+02:00Many people around the world are with you and your...Many people around the world are with you and your sufferings.

In this case, it is essential to save the child and then to talk about how to prevent children falling into wells.<BR/><BR/>For doing so, it is absolutely inadequate to ask questions relying on statements that were fabricated in order to make people hate each other.

Does the majority think it has done a good job in building infrastructure, economics, providing decent education, health care or at least the distribution of foreign aid relief?

During this time it appears that Hamas has been building an arsenal of weapons via tunnels from Egypt. Hamas ended the ceasefire when it fired its newly acquired arsenal of rockets at Israeli civilians (as opposed to the military installations Israel has targeted in Gaza).<BR/><BR/>I know most Palestinians are in no position to openly oppose Hamas, whose dictatorship in Gaza makes no room for the innocents caught up in this mess. But Israel reserves the right to punish Hamas when it persists in firing rockets at Israeli civilians.<BR/><BR/>If it has any sense, Israel will soon negotiate another ceasefire to replace that which Hamas broke.
