Many aide workers are now leaving and I can't help but feel THAT was Bibi's agenda.
What is the purpose of Hamas? Do they fight for something in particular or is chaos & barbarianism all they aspire to?
What is the purpose of any resistance group? It's a good question. In the case of the Nat Turner rebellion, 60 whites were randomly murdered. Do I condemn those responsible? I do not. African slaves were dehumanized and treated horribly over the course of decades. The Palestinians are no different by the objective criteria I apply, being the reports of international human rights groups -- and it should be noted that unlike our media outlets, the Israeli press reports on the atrocities and barbaric treatment. I read a Haaretz article some years ago reporting on IDF officers going to the Warsaw Ghetto to "study" how the Germans had established and run it, claiming it would "save lives". No mention of it in the American press. If Hamas had done the same it would have gotten front page coverage for months.
When Israel "mows the lawn", these operation have names, such as Cast Lead -- examples being carpet bombing, the use of cluster bombs, and white phosphorous, which causes horrific burns. When Hamas does the same and "mows the lawn" of Israel, giving them a taste a taste of their own medicine, the outcry is deafening. There is no consistent standard applied to all. If there was this conflict would have been resolved a very long time ago.
The killing of 1200 Israelis is an atrocity, but as with the case of the Nat Turner rebellion, I'm not going to condemn those responsible.
