Paleos: Dignity More Important | |||
2006-04-20 | |||
Saying that dignity was more important than aid in dollars, Palestinian Premier Ismail Haniyeh insisted yesterday that his Hamas-led government would not renounce violence despite mounting Western pressure over its failure to condemn a Tel Aviv bombing. “We reject all pressure on our people and government to forego our basic rights. We will not touch the rights of the Palestinian people whatever the circumstances,” Haniyeh said during talks with police and security officers. “Your visit is proof that this country is more important than money, that dignity is more important than dollars. Today you prove that dignity is the most important thing,” he said, addressing his visitors.The prime minister’s defiance was later backed by six militant groups, including Hamas’ own armed wing, the Ezzedine Al-Qassam Brigades, at an outdoor news conference by gunmen in Gaza City that broke up only after the appearance of an Israeli helicopter.

#13 I somehow find Paleos and any form of honor or dignity or self-consciousness as a non-sequitar. They need to learn the meaning before using the words. It doesn't apply. Killer-Loser cult beggars |

#12 Hama's dignity would taste even sweeter only if the US cut off ALL aid. |

#11 I guess the world insulted their dignity over the past, what, 50 years by providing aid. So sorry to have forced them to debase themselves by sending cash. I say we preserve their precious dignity forever by never giving them one more damn dime. |

#10 Hey, Ismail Haniyeh; quick question: Dignity is defined as "the quality of being worthy of esteem or respect". How do you psychotic pieces of shit from hell qualify as 'dignified'? I ask merely for information. |

#7 They have tried everything to raise money but a telethon and that is next. The Israelis are being kind by taking the embargoed Palestinian tax receipts to pay Israeli firms for electricity, water, etc. When the funds run out, I suspect the electricity will stop and the Paleos, being unable to afford a single candle, will curse the darkness. |

#4 Is dignity spending the life of your state spending money others gave you to kill your brother? Or is it demanding land you were already paid for? Or is it folloing a false religion, albiet the GODdamned circumstances? What is dignity, Palestine? |

#1 Newly Iranian-suppor HAMAS repeatedly threatens Israel, while also newly Iranian-suppor HEZBOLLAH/HIZBOLLAH threatens Turkey - yep, you betcha, without a doubt no future Iranian Empire in the PC making here. Its only Uranium, NOT Plutonium, ergo NO WMDS IN IRAN - Fascist warmongering Male Brute [SSSSHHHHH, SOCIALIST]Amerika makes yet another mistake requiring OWG Socialism, and to lose sovereignty. Fascist Amerika and its MOtherly Clintonian Commie/ LeftSocialist-majority demand it. |
