Gazans Aren't Innocent, They Are the Water Hamas Swims In


(Washington Times) Don Feder - One of the most persistent myths of the Arab-Israeli conflict is that residents of Gaza are held captive by Hamas. This is light-years removed from reality. The time for pretending there's any daylight between Hamas and the people of Gaza is over. Hamas recruits are drawn from the local populace. Like other Palestinians, Gazans are born and bred to hate Jews. For them, antisemitism is mother's milk. It saturates their media. It's taught in their schools and preached in their mosques. Palestinian textbooks call for the total destruction of Israel and the annihilation of Jews. Maps show Palestine encompassing all of Israel. Texts describe Jews as the enemies of Muslims dating back to Muhammad. Zionists are charged with planning the mass murder of Palestinians, a classic case of Freudian projection. The murderers of Israeli women and children are described as heroes and martyrs. The civilian population of Gaza is the water Hamas swims in. Civilians who support butchers brought the Gaza war on themselves. Israelis understand that their survival depends on the outcome of this conflict.
