#1 "On what basis can they arrest, detain, question and then set bail?"

Geez, what basis... they're Hamas and who is more?
They have guns and are frightening terrorists. They can do what they please. Did you vote for them? Whaddidya expect?

I think 4 years of Hamas may actually cure a dozen of Gazans.

Naw...

Well, look at the bright side, there's at least one who is cured, now.

#4 Hilarious!!, on so many levels...

Hamas, who are, let's not forget, terrorists and the elected officials in Gaza do the following;

1. They kill one of their own supporters who's demonstrating in favour of them (??? oookaaay, let's see how this pans out)
2. They make up their own laws, and are quite literally judge, jury and executioner
3. There's a major barney outside a prayer session called because people are getting harassed inside a 'place of worship' (scare quotes ok, we're talking about a mosque here). Anyone see the cognitive dissonance here?
4. They then extract punitive damages from people (loafers and ne'er do wells most likely)
5. Extract maximum shame by shaving their heads (should have taken their shoes as well - always a good one)
6. And finally, we get a quote from a Human Rights Activist (in Gaza? - this guys got balls of steel, either that or he's deranged) on the street bemoaning the fact that they're behaving like hooligans and fascists.

Well, d'uh what on earth did you expect when these people were elected. If ever there was a group of people who deserved what they get, it's gotta, just must be, the Paleos...

#6 Great post, Tony!

"I consider this a theft. What is the crime I committed?" said Ahmad Siam, 33, whose father paid the sum for his freedom. "I didn't commit a crime to pay that money."

Hoo boy, this is rich. Ahmad, baby, the crime you committed is being Palestinian. You parasites have sucked down billions of dollars over the last several decades with absolutely nothing to show for it. Now stop whinging and suck it up like a good little ~~terrorist~~ martyr.

Ihab al-Hussein, a Hamas security spokesman, said the money would be reimbursed in six months if the offenders pledged not to resume "rioting or illegal activities."

Priceless! Hamas is now blackmailing some of history's most consummate blackmailers. You could cut the irony with a knife.

"This is a legal measure. It is a way to bring the person to reconsider his action. Money might be the way to prevent these chaotic acts," he said.

Anyone else have their doubts about this? We've already funneled in billions and the violence has never stopped yet. Hamas is in for a big surprise if they think they can stop Palestinian violence with anything except a bullet.

"The whole legal system in Gaza is destroyed and defunct," he said.

"The whole legal system in Gaza" was destroyed the moment any Palestinians set foot in it. The rest has all been downhill ever since.
