Zahar: Kidnapping IDF troops still a viable option
2006-10-21
Criminals kidnap people. Governments don't. Political parties don't.
Palestinian Authority Foreign Minister Mahmoud Zahar said Friday that the possibility of kidnapping IDF soldiers had not been ruled out by Hamas as a tactic for forcing the release of Palestinian security prisoners currently incarcerated in Israel. Speaking at a Hamas rally in Khan Younis in the Gaza Strip, Zahar said he demanded that Israel release prisoners in exchange for the release of kidnapped IDF Cpl. Gilad Shalit.

Israel is a "cancer" in the Middle East, Zahar continued, and added that Hamas would never recognize its existence. "Israel is a growth on our land," he said. "It has no historical, religious, or cultural justification, and we will never establish relations with this 'cancer.' We will never recognize Israel - this is a final, non-negotiable decision," Zahar declared.

Zahar's comments echoed those made by Hamas leader-in-exile Khaled Mashaal a week ago, who reiterated that Hamas would never recognize Israel, but indicated that his organization would consider swapping Shalit in exchange for Palestinian prisoners.

#5  There is no further excuse for the existence of those who claim to be "palestinians". Kill them, exile them, and crush those that might even THINK of supporting their resurgence. They are all Arabs, and worthless to the future existence of humanity. Begin with this utter piece of filth and the barnacle on his nose.

#4  Of course, Israel IS a cancer, it is a "muslim" (read conquered) land now ruled by non-muslims, and even worse, by the archetypal dhimmis the Holy Koran condemns as ennemies of allan and future troops of the djajjal. This is an insult to the "natural" islamic order; even worse, they have pretention over Jerusalem, while this city MUST be ruled by muslims, to prove the superiority of islam over the two precedent Jerusalem-centered religions.
