Resistance is futile

With Hamas taking its orders from Khaled Mashal in Damascus and its weapons and money from Iran, one might be forgiven for thinking that the rocket attacks on Israel are really a thinly disguised act of aggression by Damascus and Teheran. But we are never to think that. What we are meant to believe is that the cause of peace requires that Hamas be allowed to survive and the Iranian weapons shipments to continue.

The conventional wisdom is that Israel “can never win” and must therefore buy its way out from under the rain of rockets. Who do they make the check out to? Hamas, Damascus or Teheran?

If you support peace in the Middle East, then you should support Israel in destroying Hamas. In urging a ceasefire now, which will enable Hamas to survive to fight another day, the UN is ruining (yet again) any hope for peace.
