File under: Hamas

#1 Yet they still have money to buy missiles to fire on Israeli civilians. I hope they starve.

#2 So five people are dead already because the hopital doesn't have power? Isn't the hospital supposed to have some kind of generator backup and fuel? Why not make it 500 dead? Probably couldn't assemble that many actors on short notice to put together one of those documentaries they know how to do so well. Just make sure the same guy doesn't show up 500 times this time, OK?

One of those unguided Qassam rockets missed a building full of kids by 40m a couple of days ago. Is there any outcry from the Paleostinians for that act? Would there have been if that missile had hit the building and killed a bunch of kids?

Perhaps they would let in some Israelis to bring you a shipment for use at the hospitals and not fire on them on the way in or out?

I know, probably just a pipe dream.

If it's so bad, hang all the bad guys. Or at least point them out and let the Isrealis take care of them.

#4 I wonder of the deceased were old and infirm, or young men full of Fatah lead?

In the latter case, one might have cause for suspicion...

The lights went our, yer honor, then somebody shot the patient in the head. Three times.

#5 Hamas officials shut down the territory's only power plant
Apparently Hamas also diverted fuel shipments from Egypt for their own use too. They elected these idiots and are free to express their displeasure at their own officials...hopefully limb by limb!

#6 Let's see now
1. Hamas turns of the power
2. Five patients die
3. Blame the Jooos (Never Blame Hamas)

So, what's new here?
Sounds like same-old to me
