NYTIMES OP-ED BY JEFFREY GOLDBERG IS WRONG; THE IDF CAN DEFEAT HAMAS

NYT OP-ED - BY JEFFREY GOLDBERG: Why Israel Can’t Make Peace With Hamas

"... tanks cannot defeat deeply felt belief.

...Hamas cannot be cajoled into moderation.

Neither position credits Hamas with sincerity, or seriousness.

The only small chance for peace today is the same chance that existed before the Gaza invasion: The moderate Arab states, Europe, the United States and, mainly, Israel, must help Hamas’s enemy, Fatah, prepare the West Bank for real freedom, and then hope that the people of Gaza, vast numbers of whom are unsympathetic to Hamas, see the West Bank as an alternative to the squalid vision of Hassan Nasrallah and Nizar Rayyan "

WRONG.

• HAMAS AND OTHER ISLAMOFASCISTS THINK THAT ALLAH DECIDES THE OUTCOMES ON THE BATTLEFIELD.

• IF THEY LOSE, THEN THEY MUST QUESTION THEMSELVES - OR DARE TO QUESTION ALLAH.

• SO, AN IDF MILITARY VICTORY CAN CHANGE THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF THE ENEMY.

• IT CAN MAKE THEM DOUBT THE FIDELITY OF THEIR CAUSE TO GOD.

BESIDES: KILLING AS MANY OF AN EVIL ENEMY AS YOU CAN IS ALWAYS A GOOD THING.
