I can't find the article that goes with this news, but this is good news.

‘Get lost! The whole world goes to *** because of you!’ Arab states turning away from Hamas terrorists.

Around 1:50 in the vid, the commentator notes that "what Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Syria and Jordan fear is democracy." While these states hate the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas, it was the people of Egypt who voted the Muslim Brotherhood into power, and the people voted Hamas into 74 seats in the Palestinian National Authority back in 2006.

So, yes it's great, and sad, to see that Egyptian television hosts are quick to condemn Hamas (moreso than some Americans); but the power is still with the people, and unfortunately IMO they haven't shown they want Hamas to go.

Yes, I heard that as well. So, Israel is not going to be their friend, but I did read there were Palestinians that do not like the brutality of Hamas. And being that God made every soul, I tend to agree with that report.

I view this the same as the Nazi situation. Not everyone in Germany agreed or wanted to go along with the horrible brutality.

Somalian Human Rights Activist Gives Her Take on Israel-Hamas Conflict

“Israel is investing everything it has into life on earth” while “Hamas is investing everything it has into life after death,” says Hirsi Ali.

“They welcome death, death, death,” says Hirsi Ali. “In the Hamas narrative, which is also the Wahabi narrative and the Salafi narrative, you get to ecstasy and self actualization after you die, not before you die, don’t be silly. So now you have millions of people who welcome death, and that is very confusing for Westerners to understand.”

“For somebody like John Kerry it is too much to understand,” concludes Hirsi Ali.

Hirsi Ali believes that all the countries that are condemning Israel during the current conflict will be forced to eat their words when they find themselves in the same situation.

“It is so clear what is going to happen,” says Hirsi Ali. “All these countries that are now condemning Israel will find themselves in exactly the same position as Israel.”

That's true. Hitler did not have the support of the majority of his own people - or those in his government.

Just watching this video brought tears to my eyes too. War is so horribly horrible. Innocent people caught up in the midst of the brutality. I can't imagine every day wondering if someone was about to dig a tunnel up through my home. Wow.

Sorry, thought i had defined that your pov seemed to be that Hamas was evil, and unjustifiably lobbing rockets at Jerusalem.
My POV, again, is that I think the violence needs to stop and that pointing, as you did, to just one side (Israel) won't help at all.

We've been discussing Politics, not religion. Somewhere along the way religion got interjected.

Mark Levin interviewed the son of the founder of Hamas, Mosab Hassan Yousef, tonight on his show to get more insight into the terrorist group that runs the Gaza Strip.

Yousef made it crystal clear that Hamas doesn’t just want to destroy the state of Israel, but wants a global caliphate on every inch of land around the world, and he said they will kill as many palestinians as they need to accomplish this goal.

Yousef said the fight that Israel is waging against Hamas isn’t just for their own existence, but for the entire world. He emphasizes that now is the time to support Israel in defeating this evil.

Part One and Two on link:

http://therightscoop.com/awesome-mar...for-the-world/
Sister you should really do some background checking on these stories. When you do you will find they are created by opportunists who just pipe what music that will get people to dance.

Israel is fighting for the world? Hamas is trying to turn the planet into a Islamic caliphate? While these comments make some people swoon, the bigger picture is propaganda to keep a war machine lubed.

The other day I was having a conversation with a journalist friend of mine and asked what was the final solution? He spent most of his career in the Middle East, and he said sooner or later there will be a mushroom cloud over Tel Aviv. Now, the reason he said that, is because since Israel's inception there has been bad blood between the Zionist European settlers who first arrived, and their Arab hosts. 66 years have passed since Israel was declared a nation in 1948, and for 66 years it has gotten bad to worse.

You have young children? I have a ten year old and a thirteen year old, I was asked how would I feel if my house was bombed and I dug my ten year old's broken body out of the rubble? I'm no political guy, I'm no partisan, I'm just typical rank and file Palestinian who is trying to feed my kids, and keep a roof over their heads. But now I'm digging frantically with my wife to get my daughters out from under broken concrete and twisted mangled rebar, I'm not thinking of Jihad, never did, I'm trying to live a 9-5, doing whatever a rank and file Palestinian man does. I grab my daughter's arm, her shoulder, but she is dead.

Now, this isn't just happening today over in Gaza, but happened back also in 2008. It has also happened in the West Bank in times past. So, what does John Q Palestinian do after his life is banged up over the death of his children, wife, family members? He wants a little pay back? He wants to find the people who did this to him? Yet, if Hamas is hiding in school playgrounds why aren't the parents going after the HAMAS and filleting the hides right off of their green scarfed bodies? No, they look at the people who are sending the bombs. So, then you have some individual who watched his ten year old expire in his arms after being dug out from under a bombed out building, and he gets enough material to build a low level suitcase nuke, then, low, and behold, a mushroom cloud over Tel Aviv.

Listen, both sides need to stop, and we as Christians cannot advocate or defend anyone who would use violence to bring peace.

Israel has a right to defend itself? Not by Jesus' standard, He would tell them to turn the other cheek, love those who are persecuting them.

Well, anyway, it is starting to look like Mosab Hassan Yousef , may not be all that he seems to be.

I also found information on Mr Walid Shoebat that he too is a phony, but that is easy enough to find on the Googlesphere.
