Hamas condemns Holocaust lessons

The BBC reports.

"The head of its education committee in Gaza, Abdul Rahman el-Jamal, told the BBC that the Holocaust was a "big lie".

He said that to teach it would be to "grant a big favour" to Israel, which has been fighting Hamas for years.

The UN, which runs most Gazan schools, recently asked local groups whether the Holocaust should be taught. "


The UN asked?

Islamic Help: Aiding Hamas

from Britain.

So, why isn't Britain doing more to stop funding of terrorists from Britain? Here's why.

"LABOUR slammed the brakes on its war against violent extremism yesterday - amid fears it had upset Muslim voters. "


Labour is putting votes ahead of Britain's security.

Hamas honeymoon ends with torture

Honeymoon?

"Now though, human rights groups and ordinary Gazans say Hamas is committing exactly the same crimes as its Fatah predecessors, whose corruption and brutality were one of the main reasons why support for Hamas grew. "We are receiving reports of political detentions every day," said Mahmoud Abu Rahma, of the Gaza City-based Al Mezan Centre for Human Rights. "Hamas is conducting wide sweeps and interrogations to collect information. The interrogations include harsh treatment, and in many cases, torture and beatings."

Gaza - BBC spreads Hamas propaganda

It's what the BBC does best.

Here's how Jane Corbin frames the report.

"The big green banner with its cheery message hung across the dusty street: "No more threat for our foreign visitors and guests."

I was being driven through Gaza City with a bodyguard provided by Hamas, the group that now controls this place."


Got that? Now that Hamas is in control everythings fine. Corbin continues to paint Hamas as the good guys.

"We soon found ourselves at a Hamas training session in the middle of a scarily realistic kidnap scenario.

Screeching tyres and blasts of live fire swirled around us as the Executive Force demonstrated how they rescue kidnap victims. "


How could Corbin know that the demonstrations was for rescue and not to kidnap? Oh, Hamas told her that. Well, that's ok then.

Next Corbin gets two bites of the apple.

"The armed wing of Hamas is better known for its suicide bombers, who have killed more than 100 Israeli civilians.

Now some of them are retraining as a police force to establish law and order after the anarchy of recent months."


You see it wasn't Hamas that killed all those Israeli civilians, it was just their armed wing - as if there's a difference. Secondly, the anarchy of recent months has more to do with Hamas than anyone else. Corbin continues.

"The streets do seem calmer now with Executive Force guards on every corner."


Sure, they kill anyone who disagrees with them or doesn't obey them. Next Corbin goes on the defense of Hamas.

"There is a lot of talk about this place becoming Hamastan, and when you look around, almost all women are veiled - but that has been happening over the last few years, and not just here but in many Muslim countries.

Hamas, the Islamic Resistance Movement calls for the establishment of an Islamic state, but their approach is more softly-softly, rather than a forced overnight conversion"


No, honestly, follow the link, she actually said that. It's times like this that you wish you had a cluebat. Corbin seems to be ignorant of the fact that the veil is actually banned or restricted in several Muslim countries. Further, that the veil is not proscribed in the Koran or by Islam and is seen as a radical political statement. Worse, in countries like Saudi Arabia and Iran, women are beaten in public by the religious police for not wearing the veil.

As for the "rather than a forced overnight conversion", Corbin just contradicted what she said a few paragraphs earlier.

"I have been to Gaza many times before, and wanted to see for myself what life is like here after the bloody infighting between two rival Palestinian factions Fatah and Hamas resulted in Hamas kicking Fatah's leaders out of Gaza."


The rest of the story is devoted almost entirely into a screed against Israel. Very little is said about the continuing daily attacks on Israel. Also left out is any mention of Hamas' charter which calls for the destruction of Israel.

Update

Oh, dear, Jane must have missed the meeting where this was discussed.

Hamas leader claims UK has widened links

This caught my eye in this Guardian report.

"The British government has sanctioned unofficial visits to the UK for senior Hamas officials in Gaza over the past 18 months. In one of the first Ghazi Hamed, the former editor of Al Risala, the Hamas newspaper, visited the BBC and the Guardian. Ahmed Yusef, an adviser to Mr Haniyeh, has also visited the UK."


Now doubt to discuss how all three could better demonize Israel and praise Hamas.

Britain surrenders to Hamas

Sad, just sad.

"British parliamentarians on Monday softened their demands for negotiating with Hamas and said that while it is critical for the group to renounce violence, it does not necessarily need to recognize Israel for preliminary contact to be established with the European Union, The Jerusalem Post has learned. "


Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, charter states it will never recognize Israel.
