Hamas' Ultimate Mission Is Islamization
(bitterlemons.org) Yossi Alpher - Some of the consequences of the Hamas victory in the PA elections are beginning to fall into place. PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas appears to be steadily backpedaling after presenting a set of impressive conditions for Hamas to qualify to form a government. Abbas' commitments and conditions, which are impressive when viewed out of context, ceased long ago to be credible. By the same token, there is little chance of a renewed peace process, or roadmap process or even serious negotiations in the coming months. We must constantly remind ourselves that, at the end of the day, Hamas has a single, overriding mission: Islamization of Palestinian society.
