NOTE: Friday Meshall threatened the IDF with a "black fate" if they entered Gaza:
Exiled Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal on Friday warned Israel against continuing its military operation in Gaza.
A videotape of the Damascus-based leader speaking was aired on Al-Jazeera Friday evening, in which he said to Israeli leaders, "The blood of Gaza is the quickest way to bring about the end of your political lives."
"To Israeli soldiers I say: A black fate awaits you if you invade Gaza. We're sure of our victory, as we've prepared a better battle, and as Allah is on our side," the tape showed him saying.
With regards to a possible cease-fire with Israel, Mashaal said that Hamas's stance "is clear - we won't give up, and we won't surrender to the enemy. Our demands are clear: Stop the [Israeli aerial] attacks immediately, open all [Gaza] border crossings, and lift the siege." He praised international efforts to bring about such a cease-fire, saying "many have made contact with us, including multiple Arab and Muslim nations. We are willing to cooperate with every effort, but we will not surrender our demands."
I THINK THIS MAY MEAN HAMAS WILL USE WMD AGAINST THE IDF, OR USE A WMD AGAINST GAZANS AND BLAME THE IDF.
STAY TUNED...

ReplyDeleteI wondered about that quote and it's implications too.
ReplyDeleteThing is, every time Israel or the U.S. attacks a Muslim state, they always say this kind of shit, and then they promptly get their asses kicked.
GOOD POINTS PASTO...
ReplyDeleteTHEY'RE LIKE WILEY E COYOTE...
Yes, of course Israel will kick their asses, not many people doubt it. But this will not lead peace in the region, violence feeds violence.
ReplyDeleteYou americans of all people should know, you´re so called victories in Iraq and Afghanistan are good examples of this.
Oskar?
ReplyDeleteHas there ever been peace?
All I know is that since the invasion in Lebanon Hezballah has not sent any missiles into Israel...If there is any Hamas left after this operation they mayu be a little more circumspect before resorting to violence. As far as Iraq and Afghanistan are concerned Al Q hasn't attack the Homeland in a looong time...
A good defense is the best offense - and vice a versa...
OSKAR:
ReplyDelete"violence feeds violence."
NONSENSE.
APPEASING VIOLENCE LEADS TO MORE VIOLENCE.
WHEN BULLIES ARE APPEASED THEY KEEP BULLYING.
ONCE DEFEATED THEY STOP.
USA VIOLENCE DEFEATED HITLER AND TOJO.
PACIFISM NEVER WON A WAR.
NEITHER HAS APPEASEMENT EVER AVOIDED ONE.
ONLY DELAYED THEM AND ALLOWED THE ENEMY TO STRENGTHEN MAKING THE INEVITABLE WAS WORSE.
