Why there can never be 'peace in the Middle East'

Larry Elder quotes from Hamas' covenant about obliterating Israel

Larry Elder

Secretary of State John Kerry is the latest to think the power of his personal diplomacy can bring “peace to the Middle East.” But, once again, when one side publicly calls for the destruction of the other, what is there to discuss?

Hamas, designated a foreign terrorist organization by the U.S., has governed the Palestinian territory of Gaza since they defeated rival Fatah, the group that governs the West Bank. Hamas, along with Hezbollah, Palestine Islamic Jihad, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command, Iraqi militant Shiite groups and other terror organizations, is funded in part by Iran, whose leaders routinely call for the destruction of the “fictitious” state of Israel. Hamas’ covenant calls for the destruction of Israel. The preamble reads:

“Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it.”

Article Three describes the duty of all Muslims:

“(To) fear Allah and raise the banner of Jihad in the face of the oppressors.”

Article Seven states:

“The Day of Judgment will not come about until Muslims fight Jews and kill them. Then, the Jews will hide behind rocks and trees, and the rocks and trees will cry out: ‘O Muslim, there is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him.’”

Article Eleven clarifies their belief that:

“the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waif (Holy Possession) consecrated for future Muslim generations until Judgment Day. No one can renounce it or any part, or abandon it or any part of it.”

Article Thirteen flatly states:

“Palestine is an Islamic land.Since this is the case, the liberation of Palestine is an individual duty for every Muslim wherever he may be.” It also says, “There is no solution for the Palestinian problem except by Jihad.”.......

The late Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir famously said, “Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us.” How deep is the hate?........To Read More…..
