Jimmy Carter was surely worse than even Nixon as a US president: meanwhile, Hamas grwos stronger, every day and Israel is starting to look and sound both pitiful, and defeated. Hamas Boasts: Kassam Has Defeated Israel 15:12 Nov 15, '06 / 24 Cheshvan 5767 by Hillel Fendel An official Hamas communique states, "The enemy, in his despair, has tried everything against our Kassams, but he knows that all his plans will fail." Abu Obeideh, the spokesman of the Iz A-Din El-Kassam military wing of the Hamas terrorist organization, publicized this statement: "Everyone knows that the main purpose of all the Israeli military missions is to stop the Kassam rockets. The enemy, in his despair, has tried all means of pressure, instilling fear, killing and collective punishment, but he recognizes the fact that all his plans will fail with the launching of the first volley from between the columns of armor, and despite his planes and intelligence gathering." The Hamas spokesman said, "Our fighters have dealt successfully with the military missions, and this has brought Israel to announce another plan indicating its despair, according to which it will no longer announce where the rockets fell, in the illusion that this will mislead the resistance." He said this will not disturb them from determining their targets "with precision and with new means." The proof of this, he said, is the high number of "accurate hits among the colonialists [Israeli citizens] and homes, and their running to the shelters, the sounding of rocket warning systems and street demonstrations by colonialists who have no security in their homes." Israel must think carefully before considering conquering the Gaza Strip, the spokesman warns, because it will not fulfill its goal and will simply cause additional defeats for its army. [The announcement was translated into Hebrew by Yonatan D. HaLevy for the Hebrew NFC news site] Col. (ret.) Moti Yogev, the former Commander of the Gaza Division, has renewed his call - echoing that of other former IDF officers - for an IDF conquest of both northern Gaza and the Egyptian-Gazan border. MK Yuval Shteinitz says that the Philadelphi Corridor must be re-taken, and Shabak (GSS) chief Yuval Diskin repeated his call yesterday for a takeover of Gaza in the event that Fatah does not instill order there.
