Hamas Tunnel Builders
« on: August 17, 2014, 10:32:20 AM »
Interesting story on the Hamas tunnels. Like Benghazi, the IRS, the marine in the Mexican jail, and so many other important stories, the Israeli conflict is falling off the news feed, usurped by other stories, like Ferguson. This story (if the letter is genuine) certainly indicates the cruelty of Hamas though, especially regarding the death of children (I'm sure it's the Israeli's fault somehow  ;/ ). I predict it will be generally ignored by most of the MSM.

Islam and the Koran... taken literally has more "ends justify the means" instructions in it than just about any ideology or religion I've ever seen.

It even makes Leftism look pretty benign in comparison.
I promise not to duck.

I recall a comment I heard years ago.  A guy said the conflict in the Middle East will end when the Muslim militants there begin to care more about their own children than about killing Israelis.  I don't think it has happened yet.

Except that the ends often are the means for these folks.
That is all. *expletive deleted*ck you all, eat *expletive deleted*it, and die in a fire. I have considered writing here a long parting section dedicated to each poster, but I have decided, at length, against it. *expletive deleted*ck you all and Hail Satan.

Of course they care about their children.

They can't get nearly as much media mileage out of their twentysomethings getting killed.

I believe it was Gold Meir who made the statement about the children.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.
