Hamas Inspired by Iraqi terrorist Insurgents
EFL Well, November was a bad month for Hamas. They lost about 30 of their guys and the total Israeli civilian death toll from terrorism was zero. Actually, compared to that, the Baathist-Islamic alliance had a great month in November. The Iraqis fighting the U.S.-led forces of occupation are an inspiration to the Palestinians... Khaled Maashal said that the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in March and the early stages of the occupation that began April constituted a "point of weakness and a threat to the (Islamic) nation... now we can deal with it as a point of strength, and a point of weakness I wonder if his audience could make any sense out of this - for the American-Zionist plan in the region," he said.... Mashal is head of the Hamas political bureau and is based in Damascus, the capital of neighboring Syria... The article didnât say who his audience was. Possibly the AP guy was the only media person in the room. Posted by: mhw 2003-12-22 |
