I hope what terrorist leaderAbbas says is true ,but it's more like another scam to get the world's pity of which these snakes are so good at doing. These crooks who milk the world community with their phony cries have squandered and huidden away billions. Only the naive fools pity the people who birthed terrorism upon the eath.Let them suffer even more than economically and let the disappear off the face of the earth to be forgotten forever . Thsae nations who help an intolerant and cursed people who kill and hate under religious pretext bring a curse upon themselves.

And that 'contact' should be WAR! I am currently watching on Channel 11 a program about the Nazi extermination program of my people. Hamas is a reincarnation of the Nazis. We cannot let our Jewish hearts get in the way of destroying them by saying we want to avoid civilian casualties - these 'civilians' voted for Hamas!

I say go to hell Abbas -- GO STRAIGHT TO HELL!! What happened to the billions of dollars the world has sent you? You should be the richest nation on earth due to the constant flood of aid dollars coming for the US, EU, UN, and all the Arab dollars raised on your behalf. But where the hell isit? And we should now dig in to our pockets because you have failed to keep even one agreement you made in the Road Map. Go to hell, rot in hell -- you should all starve but that won't happen because you have Iran and Saudi Dollars you can depend on. You're a stinking failure as a leader -- and you're people are a reflection of that failure. Why don't you martyr yourself you fattened goose? Do what you have urged Palestinian children to do -- that's how much you love the kids right Mahmoud? " Go strap on a bomb my son while I drink tea and milk the world for more money to put in my Swiss account." What a useless piece of excrement...

ISRAEL--THE BRAVEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. GOOD FOR OLMERT AND ALL, STANDING FIRM AGAINST HAMAS. REMEMBER A FEW DAYS AGO, A HAMAS LEADER SAID THEY WOULD NOT STARVE WITHOUT ISRAELI MONEY AND THAT THE ARAB COUNTRIES WOULD GIVE THEM MONEY? WHY ARE THEY STILL WHINING TO THE JEWS FOR MONEY THEN? WHY SHOULD ISRAEL HAVE TO GIVE MONEY TO PEOPLE WHOSE STATED GOAL IS THE DESTRUCTION OF ISRAEL? ANSWER--THEY DON'T. CHEW ON THAT, HAMAS.

...and, there are quite a few of them , trained in Canadian and european universities.....do not want to come and help with the economic issues which will affect Gaza and the territories and which cannot be tackled by the " feudal politicians" on the run for power. Short of resourcing to qualified and trained secular economists, I do not see how hamas can turn Gaza and the territories around....It will be interesting to wtach if their is really any change

The United States and Israel should NOT give one penney to the new "Palestinian" terrorist government. Let the "Palestinians" freeze and starve in the dark!! Maybe they can go begging for money from Iran and Saudi Arabia.

Sounds like we've got a lot of angry Jews on here tonight. Let's not forget that the Palestinians were forced from their home so that the "Jewish" state could be formed. You've got to pay for what you take, otherwise it's called stealing! It was a democratic process to which Hamas was selected, and if you wanna compare to the Nazi's, try comparing Bush first, isn't he the one that invaded countries? And lastly, cut off the money from Palestinians, and "Israel" is in trouble. Once those poor people don't have food, they'll get desperate and mad at the people who stole their land and freedom. Isreal should remember that it's in the middle of Arab nations, unwelcomed and should have never been there. End of story.

You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. This is too small a space to tell you how you are wrong. But if you knew ANY history, you would know that it is the Arabs who conquered and occupied the whole Middle East. And again - and I'm getting real tired of saying this - THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS PALESTINE!!!

May 2003 Pew Global poll: 80% of Palestinians agreed with the statement: "The rights and needs of the Palestinian people cannot be taken care of as long as the State of Israel exists." Israel is in a state of war with the PLO/PA, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, PA Muslim society, et al. The U.S. EU UN, and Russia's ruthless demands on Israel for implementation of the Road Map will bring about Israel's destruction. Israel needs strong leaders who will declare Oslo-Road Map and all agreements NULL AND VOID! Re-take Jewish Gaza! It's been transformed into Hamastan-terrorist training camps and a global base for terror! After the 1967 Six Day War, the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff submitted their report requested by the U.S. government. The report stated ISRAEL CAN ONLY BE DEFENSIBLE IF IT RETAINS JUDEA, SAMARIA, GAZA AND THE GOLAN.
