Hamas to Israel: evacuate your country

This is the brilliant new strategy of the impudent, murderous thugs who were democratically elected to represent the Palestinian people—Israelis should leave the area (starting with Sderot and ending with ?) if they want peace:

The only way to stop the regular rocket fire on Sderot, an Israeli city of about 20,000 nearly three miles from the Gaza Strip border, is for the Jewish state to evacuate the entire city, Hamas announced in a statement Wednesday.“Only the departure of residents from Sderot will stop the rocket fire,” Abu Abaida, spokesman for Hamas’ so-called military wing, said in a statement to reporters.

“There are no limits on our rocket attacks and we will prove that in coming days. We advise residents of Sderot to evacuate,” the Hamas spokesman said.

…

…Abu Abaida said Hamas is seeking to impose “a new equation in which the Zionists understand that for every incursion into Gaza, we will use our rockets to bombard your towns and cities until more and more are forced to evacuate. Our rockets have already improved, as Sderot residents know. We keep working on (the rockets) to improve deadliness, force and distance.”

Unfortunately, Hamas’s rocket attacks are having the desired effect in Sderot: the life of the town has been totally disrupted, with children afraid to leave home to go to school. You can read all about it here.

Somehow, under the circumstances, it’s not surprising that Israeli workers hurled stones and insults at Louise Arbour, the UN’s top “human rights” official, who was visiting the area. Rushed to the scene of an attack to see it firsthand, she said:

“Israel has a responsibility to defend its citizens, but has to do so only by legal means. …It has to do so in line with international law.”

Why? to make room for international law to “legally” annihilate Israel? I don’t think so, Ms. Arbour.

The Jews have been clever enough to survive your kind of “laws” for thousands of years, as even their most vicious enemies understand. For example, Mahathir Mohamed:

We are up against a people who think. They survived 2,000 years of pogroms not by hitting back, but by thinking. They invented and successfully promoted Socialism, Communism, human rights and democracy so that persecuting them would appear to be wrong, so they may enjoy equal rights with others. With these they have now gained control of the most powerful countries and they, this tiny community, have become a world power. We cannot fight them through brawn alone. We must use our brains also.

Mahathir Mohamed, who implies that persecuting Jews is not wrong—that it just seems wrong and the Jews talked people out of it by coming up with clever world-changing ideas—spouts the essence of perverse anti-Semitism, which ascribes mystical powers to the Jews.

But we can’t ignore what he says: that the Jews have survived by thinking. So, Ms. Arbour, maybe you should start looking for another job. Because the clever Jews will soon have formulated yet another world-changing ideology to persuade you and your pals that persecuting the Israeli Jews is wrong.
