Hamas PM vows to 'liberate Palestine' at Gaza rally

[oberliner]

GAZA CITY — Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniya on Monday told tens of thousands of Hamas supporters his group remains committed to the elimination of Israel, on the 22nd anniversary of its founding.

"We will never give up on Palestine from the river to the sea," Haniya told the crowd, referring to the pre-1948 borders of the British Palestine Mandate between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River.

"It is not enough for Hamas to liberate Gaza, nor to establish an emirate in Gaza, nor a state, nor an independent entity... Hamas strives to liberate all of Palestine."

1. Notice how there are no posts from the Hamas apologists

I think they think they know better than Mr. Haniya himself the plans of Hamas.

But Mr, Haniyeh is always extremely clear in the goals.

Bye bye Israel.

3. Who are the Hamas apologists? There's none in this forum...

Have you considered joining everyone else in reality for a change?

4. it's probably a translation error, let's give Hamas the benefit of the doubt

and stop demonizing Hamas.....when you do that, you demonize the Palestinian people!

:eyes:

not to mention, when you demonize Hamas - that kinda takes the focus away from Israel's crimes, so cut it out and keep focused!

2. Don't you love far-right-wingers playing to their base?!

The hardcore Hamas supporters, the right-wing settlers, the teabaggers, and the BNP and related groups all have things in common.

5. They most certainly do and that includes

not recognizing the "family" resemblance
