- They are members of HAMAS, a terrorist organization whose sole

- The question is not one of trial for a crime, but of ridding

- You obviously have no idea as to what takes place. By the way,
- when was the last time POW's had "due process"?
-
- # Second, I do not accept that Hamas are a terrorist organisation.
-
- Somehow that does not surprise any of us.

- # Up to

-
- There are no "palestinian?" lands. Those are lands liberated by
- Israel in a war forced on them by the Arabs.
-
- # and several thousand unarmed Palestinian men women and children have
- # been killed by Israeli forces.
-
- The responsibility for those lie with child abusing parents (who
- send their kids out to face soldiers by throwing stones at them) or
- with terrorists who place themselves among civilians.
-
- # When Hamas starts killing Israeli
- # civilians they will have sunk to the level of the Zionist state, but up

-
- HAMAS can only dream of rising to the very high morality of the
- Zionist State. So high, that many Jews have been killed because they
- refused to shoot first.
