Before you make excuses for HAMAS, nor for it's supporters in our congress, you really should take a few minutes to educate yourself to their goals-in their own words. The following from the Covenant of HAMAS.
Quote:
On the Destruction of Israel:
-----------------------------
'Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will
obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it.' (Preamble)
The Exclusive Moslem Nature of the Area:
----------------------------------------
'The land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf [Holy Possession]
consecrated for future Moslem generations until Judgment Day. No one
can renounce it or any part, or abandon it or any part of it.'
(Article 11)
'Palestine is an Islamic land... Since this is the case, the
Liberation of Palestine is an individual duty for every Moslem
wherever he may be.' (Article 13)
The Call to Jihad:
------------------
'The day the enemies usurp part of Moslem land, Jihad becomes the
individual duty of every Moslem. In the face of the Jews' usurpation,
it is compulsory that the banner of Jihad be raised.' (Article 15)
'Ranks will close, fighters joining other fighters, and masses
everywhere in the Islamic world will come forward in response to the
call of duty, loudly proclaiming: 'Hail to Jihad!'. This cry will
reach the heavens and will go on being resounded until liberation is
achieved, the invaders vanquished and Allah's victory comes about.'
(Article 33)
Rejection of a Negotiated Peace Settlement:
-------------------------------------------
'[Peace] initiatives, and so-called peaceful solutions and
international conferences are in contradiction to the principles of
the Islamic Resistance Movement... Those conferences are no more than
a means to appoint the infidels as arbitrators in the lands of
Islam... There is no solution for the Palestinian problem except by
Jihad. Initiatives, proposals and international conferences are but a
waste of time, an exercise in futility.' (Article 13)
There is more-it's worth a read. Before you believe the excuses of the terrorist supporters in congress and in our MSM-take the time to read that. Read the goals of these savages in their own words. The political system of Islam doesn't allow for the survival of those that are not it's followers.
Anti-semitic canards
The 1988 charter contained references to anti-Semitic canards, such as the assertion that through shrewd manipulation of imperial countries and secret societies, Jews were behind a wide range of events and disasters going as far back in history as the French Revolution.
With their money, they took control of the world media, news agencies, the press, publishing houses, broadcasting stations, and others. With their money they stirred revolutions in various parts of the world with the purpose of achieving their interests and reaping the fruit therein. They were behind the French Revolution, the Communist revolution and most of the revolutions we heard and hear about, here and there. With their money, they formed secret societies, such as Freemason, Rotary Clubs, the Lions and others in different parts of the world for the purpose of sabotaging societies and achieving Zionist interests. With their money they were able to control imperialistic countries and instigate them to colonize many countries in order to enable them to exploit their resources and spread corruption there.[1]
It continued by accusing the Jews of engineering World War I and it echoed Nazi propaganda in claiming that Jews profited during World War II.[40]
Violence against Jews
The 1988 document also quoted Islamic religious texts to provide justification for fighting against and killing the Jews, without distinction of whether they were in Israel or elsewhere.[41] It presented the Arab–Israeli conflict as an inherently irreconcilable struggle between Jews and Muslims, and Judaism and Islam, adding that the only way to engage in this struggle between "truth and falsehood" was through Islam and by means of jihad, until victory or martyrdom.
Equivalence of anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism
Historian Jeffrey Herf argued that unlike the PLO, which has distinguished their national struggle against Zionism from general antisemitism (rhetorically, at least), Hamas, in their covenant, purposefully fused these two struggles into one against the Jews and their country.[40]
In the words of Golda Meir: Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us.
Some posters on here blamed Israel for responding to the 430 bombs that Hamas launched at them. They won't care that all Hamas cares about is killing all non-Muslims. Hamas would bomb the US if they were close enough.

Why haven't they killed off Christian Arabs who live in the Gaza Strip or in the West Bank?

Opinion:
Think again: The U.S. would bomb Hamas if they were close enough..................................
It'll be easier just to make Egypt take the Gaza Strip back. If they blow it up no one will care.
Egypt doesn’t want the aggravation.
