Try to keep up, there is a new charterThe protests last month had nothing to do with Hamas, but everything to do with Israeli control over Gaza.
No Gazan or Gazan-made item could leave without Israeli permission, and no foreign goods—humanitarian supplies, medicine, books or food could enter by land, air or sea.This is not leaving...
Israel maintained full control of the air above (all radio, cell phone and internet capacity), the sea beyond (Israel patrolled and claimed sovereignty over the Mediterranean Sea) and the land surrounding the territory. Israel, with the help of Egypt, controlled the entrance and exits, all imports and exports, and access to water and electricity — essential for basic human needs such as heat and lights, potable water and sewage treatment.That's why there are protests. That's why Israel gets rockets.
Most Gazans...are consumed by the daily routine of scrambling for employment, food, potable water, electricity and gas where little is available due to Israel’s hostile prevention of the flow of goods, services and people.And with all this Israeli might and power, there is one thing these pussy's can't control...
While Army controls and barriers can prevent the movement of people, they cannot prevent the untreated, sewage-filled water from traveling the Mediterranean to the beaches and water systems of Tel Aviv. And they cannot keep the toxic air from the burning of tires on the streets of Gaza City from drifting to the fields and towns of Israel.Falafal, anyone?
That long cut and paste from your favorite internet tabloid is drenched in Jew hating slogans you folks like to dump into various threads.
A simple counter to that nonsense is found here:
The Avalon Project : Hamas Covenant 1988
Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it" (The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory).
Time to get to the gym after stuffing your face with falafel.
In the biggest concession, the new document states that Hamas “considers the establishment of a fully sovereign and independent Palestinian state, with Jerusalem as its capital along the lines of 4 June 1967, with the return of the refugees and the displaced to their homes from which they were expelled, to be a formula of national consensus”.
By implication, the document accepts that there will be another state entity outside these borders, even if it does not mention Israel.
Hamas presents new charter accepting a Palestine based on 1967 borders
Yes, you should try and keep up. From your link:
" Although it does not explicitly supplant the previous charter of the founding fathers, seen by many as racist, it is being described by those seeking to help Hamas toward a more peaceful path as the contemporary summary of Hamas beliefs and aims."
So yes, the existing charter remains in place as you, how shall we say, "slow learners", stutter and mumble about some new charter which doesn't exist.
