In an echo of the condemnations of the summer 2006 counterattack on Hisballah, Israel has again been condemned for its strikes against terrorist targets in Gaza. Let us be clear: there is no “occupation” of Gaza by Israeli forces; there are no settlements of Jews living there any more; terrorism is not a name for “freedom fighters” since by definition it means attacking civilian targets for political/religious or quasi political purposes and Hamas’s rockets are part of an assault against Israel’s existence. Hamas is not interested in conference induced peaceful solutions.
Article 13 of Hamas’s Charter declares: “Initiatives, and so-called peaceful solutions and international conferences, are in contradiction to the principles of the Islamic Resistance Movement. Abusing any part of Palestine is abuse directed against part of religion. Nationalism of the Islamic Resistance Movement is part of its religion. Its members have been fed on that…. There is no solution for the Palestinian question except through Jihad. Initiatives, proposals and international conferences are all a waste of time and vain endeavors. The Palestinian people know better than to consent to having their future, rights and fate toyed with.”
