| Haniyeh: We won't agree to cease-fire until Israel lifts blockade |
| 2008-05-23 |
| Ismail Haniyeh, the leader of the Hamas government in the Gaza Strip, said the movement would not declare a cease-fire unless Israel lifts the blockade and reopens crossings with the outside world. "We will not give a calm if we continue to be humiliated, and certainly not before Israel halts its aggression," Haniyeh said Thursday at a news conference in Gaza. He said the group's leadership would decide its next step after internal consultations. |

| #2 Jew and Muslim to find a common way of getting along and living peacefully together Well, it has been done in the past. Wuz called dhimmitude. But I am not sure that the majority of Israelis would like to repeat that kind of experience. |

| #1 TOPIX > JORDAN TIMES - WHY THE MIDDLE EAST DOESN'T MATTER. Israel faces becoming a MUSLIM-MAJORITY STATE in approxi TEN YEARS, and the TWO STATE SOLUTION is no longer viable as ISRAEL = APARTHEID-ERA, PRE-DE KLERK SOUTH AFRICA [minority oppresses the majority. AS PER APARTHEID-ERA SOUTH AFRICA, ISRAEL IS SLOWLY BECOMING UNLIVEABLE FOR JEW AND MUSLIM ALIKE, hence NEW SOLUTIONS ARE NEEDED. US + World should stop viewing the ME as "strategic" and leave, thus forcing both Jew and Muslim to find a common way of getting along and living peacefully together??? |
