Stephen Zunes, (brilliant author that he is) puts all of the supporting details onto my claim that Hamas is a product of Israel. But he goes further in unveiling the role of the US in this creation, even BEFORE the Cheney regime took power. Of course it became even worse after the Thugs did their coup here in 2001, and we’ve been in free fall ever since, with the Palestinians suffering even more than they had previously, even under the corrupt (and still illegitimate) leadership of the PLO. Team Bush put the final nails in their coffins.
A lengthy read, but oh so valuable for anyone who really DOES wanna know the truth.

America’s Hidden Role in Hamas’s Rise to Power
By Stephen Zunes, AlterNet. Posted January 3, 2009.

No one in the mainstream media or government is willing to acknowledge America’s sordid role interfering in Palestinian politics.

“As soon as they stop committing acts of war and terrorism against Israel, military action against Hamas will almost certainly stop, despite the fact Israel is justified in carrying this much farther than they have already.”

Oh PLEASE!!! This is why you whimps never register. You wouldn’t dare say this incredibly stupid stuff if it could be tracked to you. As if George Bush being a moron had anything to do with this, and as if there had EVER been a time when Israel wasn’t engaged in the all out slaughter of an entire group of people.

I am so thoroughly sick of you people claiming that Israel would ever stop it’s persecution if “Hamas” stopped doing whatever they are doing. What excuse did you all use before 1987, before Hamas even existed?

You say as soon as “They” stop committing ‘acts of terrorism’ against ISRAEL? Give me a fucking break! Give us ALL a break. Hamas is a CREATION of Israel, that only came about as a defense against their 60-year old genocide of the Palestinian people.

The only ‘terrorists’ in the Middle East are Israel and the US. So the ‘solution’ is to halt ALL US aid to Israel, and help them finish building that wall around THEMSELVES, and put a roof on it, and seal off all of the area outside, and the Israelis IN.

That’s the solution. They’ll be safe and secure that way, and the rest of the world can live in peace.

Not one single Washington politician has the courage to utter one word of criticism about Israel. If that isn’t complete and abject submission, I can’t imagine what is. What has happened to the land of the free and the home of the brave? How did we become a puppet that supports the open slaughter of innocent children, women, and unarmed non-combatants? I thought we were real men here with values if not virtues. I know Bush is a punk but the entire Congress cowering and groveling before Israel, a bunch of paranoid, schizophrenic, religious, hate-filled lunatics with WMDs? Washington, D.C. should be renamed Wimptown, D.C. until someone steps up and gives Israel what for.

Still time to get armed.  Obama’s administration will be no better.

Defeat Capitalism

Whose Bush? ?

A local US California newspaper, part of a larger press group of course, on yesterday’s front page, top of page, large letterings:

“Hamas Fires rockets deep into Israel”

and the article is subtitled:

“Four Israelis are killed as militants continue attacks”

Yet; the TRUTH is in here, see it with your own eyes:

Great - “Pumphead Cheney” at the Controls of the Hindenburg

Wonderful - the Useless Moron aka G. Bush aka “The Boy Emperor” can’t even be bothered to see out his stolen term, so Vice is left to man the fort. A man with half a brain and NO heart.

Terrific. Don’t expect a happy outcome from that boneheaded “I’m the Decider” decision.

Gordon “John Doe” - still preserving your anonymity and looking like a deer caught in the headlights I see. Better leave The Bunker before your Fuhrer ends up Kaput.

Israel must start abiding by U.N. mandates and allow IAEA inspections.

Howard, I wonder what makes you suggest that Israel does not target civilians.

Tell me, is the destruction of a hospital, a university and five mosques going after rocket manufacturers? Or is it going after innocent civilians?

Furthermore, Hamas may “rule Gaza with an iron fist” but let’s face it, the Hamas model is the only truly democratic model that exists in the Middle East.  Aren’t we as Western countries supposed to be promoting democracy?

Or are we to continue disrespecting functioning democracies when the outcomes of their democratic elections are not to our liking?

About time Israel responded to the non-stop vicious bombardment by Hamas. Good for Israel to finally respond. Israel does not target civilians; no, they go after the rocket makers, their factories, and the rocket sites. This is in contrast to the indiscriminate bombing of civilians by Hamas.

Hamas tried very hard to provoke Israel. They want the world’s sympathy.  Glad to see us not give it. Hamas rules Gaza with an iron-fist.  Could stop the bombing in a moment.

I am counting the days that we have to continue to listen to this “dithering idiot”.....“ole bullshit” continues to show-as does his cabinet-i.e.‘condom-sleaza”-how stupid and uncaring they all are…And he just wants to leave the biggest mess he can for Obama….Talk about Childish Stupidity…They[re_puke_likins] take the cake!!!!!

As a subscriber and donor to “Jewish Voice for Peace” I received a message, part of which is posted below. What a difference between those noble Jews and judicious Jews and the Zionist terrorists running the state of Israel and supported by evil Bush administration!
================================================
“The news about the attacks in Gaza is beyond words. “Appalling” doesn’t even come close.”

“U.S.-supplied Israeli F-16 warplanes and Apache helicopters have fired missiles and dropped over 100 tons of bombs on dozens of locations in the Israeli-occupied Gaza Strip.  Over 300 people are dead and at least 1,400 more are injured. Many if not most of them are civilians.  Food and medicine were already in short supply in Gaza and all medical facilities have been completely overwhelmed by this onslaught. Access to Gaza has been cut off by Israel.”

“This is the most violent and heartbreaking situation that has happened to the Palestinians in recent history, and it must stop. In addition to calling for protests at Israeli consulates and federal buildings, as well as letters to the U.S. and Israeli governments, Jewish Voice for Peace staff and members are already putting together an aggressive campaign focused on Gaza. And, without a moment to waste, we call for an immediate end to attacks on all civilians.”

What a joke. Saying a country shouldn’t do something and then funding the country so they can continue doing it.

Bombing didn’t work for Hitler with England or for America with Vietnam. In fact, bombing always seems to rally and unite those being bombed.

So far the score in this round is 4 to 337. If those numbers keep up we may finally see and end to this in the form of extermination.

During his Presidency, Bush has been seldom right about anything and isn’t still.

The world’s most powerful country continues to distort reality to a sickening degree. Where is the Bush administration getting its information?

Officially, Israel has declared that it is attacking Hamas. In reality, it is attacking all of Palestine, its people and its infrastructure, destroying a university, five mosques and a hospital. This is compounding to a horrifying degree the immense humanitarian disaster that was already flourishing in the Gaza Strip since the beginning of the Israeli blockade.

Where are the leaders that are willing to point this out?

If Bush had another brain it would die of loneliness. Why doesn’t the moron just shut up?
