  1. LOL, Hamas victory rally!!!

    Only party stalwarts turned out for a victory rally

    And as armed Hamas policemen return to Gaza's street-corners and traffic-lights, many in Gaza are wondering where they were when it came to fighting the Israeli Army.

    Hamas still has enough power and influence here that few will criticise the Islamist movement openly.

    But when Hamas called for a rally to celebrate what it has been calling a historic victory over the Israelis, the citizens of Gaza voted with their feet - they stayed at home.

    In the past Hamas could easily call tens of thousands into the streets, but this time only party stalwarts could look around the devastation and believe this could be victory

  2. Hamas is the next Hezbollah. Israel is doing everything possible to give them credibility and martyr status. Funny how Israel funded both of them in the past too.

    I think you're right. Hezbollah stopped firing rockets after Israel kicked their ass and wiped out half of Lebanon, looks like the same is going to happen to Hamas.

    Israel is doing everthing possible to give them credibility
    nah, they were credible enough if they managed to win the elections

    and martyr status.
    true, that's where their and Israel's interests coincide.

    Funny how Israel funded both of them in the past too.
    Funny how Israel haters make this lame and questionable argument as if claiming that now Israel has to love Hamas as much as they do.
