after all, they have the same values and core ideology. and then it will be back to business as usual.

While they send young kids to become suicide bombers, when it comes to themselves, they run in fear for their lives.

It is not on the PNN English website, and is not reported anywhere but here on Yedioth Ahronoth.

Lets show courage ! Let's escape our responsabilities !. Mashaal and his group of thugs are not only cowards but in addition, it looks like they are aflicted by the traditional stupidity associated with religious extremism of all kind . How did they think they would get away with that ? Did they really thing they would get help from their " arab brothers " ? Hamas, looking for legitimacy, has demonstrated its unability to act as a responsible " organisation" Mashaal and all the "phony ministers" or so called " civil servants " will have to pay the price, not only in terms of military action, but in term of their own image being tarnished for ever. Hamas leadership will end up in the garbage can of history, along with all the petty warlords of the middle-east, the religious dictators and all of those who have not been able to cross the line between obscurantism and democracy. Jihad is the worst possible way to achieve anything, including peace !

A warrant should be issued for Mashaal's arrest for kidnapping and terrorism. Whether he's in Syria or Algeria, that nation should comply with this warrant and turn him over to the US or Israel for trial.
