  1. Richard Witty says:

    Hamas is schizophrenic. It contains those dedicated to social service and community upliftment, and those dedicated to rage, racism and vengeance.

    The military wing of Hamas is NOT group that Israel supported.

  2. LD says:

    Sounds like Israel, Witty.

    "The military wing of Hamas is NOT group that Israel supported."

    Hamas is an offshoot of Muslim Brotherhood – you know, the real al Kaida, not the Osama freak with money.

    Of course Israel supported Hamas, not the so called humanitarian section.

    The strategy was to weaken Fatah – then very strong – in a classic divide and rule.
