Rich, <What do you know about the Hamas?> nytimes.com The goals of Hamas are straightforward. As Sheik Yassin put it, "our equation does not focus on a cease-fire; our equation focuses on an end to the occupation." By that he means an end to the Jewish occupation of historical Palestine. Hamas wants Israeli withdrawal from all of the West Bank and Gaza, the dismantling of all Israeli settlements and full right of return for the four million Palestinians who live in other states. After that, the Jews could remain, living "in an Islamic state with Islamic law," Dr. Zahar said. "From our ideological point of view, it is not allowed to recognize that Israel controls one square meter of historic Palestine." Mr. Shenab insisted that he was not joking when he said, "There are a lot of open areas in the United States that could absorb the Jews." By the way, "historic Palestine" is a euphemism for all of Israel. They want Israel wiped off the map, and they will use all means necessary to achieve this. If you don't think this is "ethnic cleansing," then there is nothing else I can say to change your mind. Tenchusatsu
