Hamas says it's improving rockets
2008-03-01
Hamas is improving its rocket technology, and will soon be able to "any target in Israel," Reuters quoted a senior member of the organization, Fathi Hamad, saying Friday at a rally in the Gaza Strip.

Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, who was recently reported to have "gone underground" out of fear he would be targeted for assassination by Israel, also spoke at the demonstration. Haniyeh addressed the possibility of a large-scale IDF incursion into Gaza. "[Such an] operation would end in total failure for Israel, just like the rest of its operations in the past," Haniyeh declared. "Israel is living under a delusion if it believes that it can topple the Hamas regime in GazaÂ… Even if Israel kills our leaders, it can't damage the purpose of [our] struggle," he continued.

#4  I agree. The Paleos are lucky I'm not in charge. They'd be huddled in the dark, with no water, sewage provisions, or food, listening to artillery, with periodic loudspeaker offers to change their ways. I'm convinced that smashing the Paleo "identity", especially the idea that Israel is an occupation rather than a reality, is necessary. It will take Israel ignoring the EU/UN assholes and pounding the Paleos into submission without int'l intervention to change the Paleo version of reality and possible futures. They need to understand Israel is well armed, willing, and not going away, and will not tolerate the Paleo hijinxs. The current Israel Olmert Gov't doesn't say that. They need Sharon V2.0...perhaps Bibi V2.0?

#3  That 'red line' was crossed long, long ago, Frank. Unless/until an Israeli leader grows a spine, I wouldn't be holding my breath for the proper response.

#2  I can't f'n wait for them to cross that red line where Israel says: "fuck it, that's enough. KILL THEM"

#1  "Even if Israel kills our leaders, it can't damage the purpose of [our] struggle"

The guy is right. Especially when the purpose is martyrdom. No one can't prevent idiots from dying.
