Son of Hamas speaks out on CNN

[jmotivator]

The son of the founder of Hamas was on CNN and had some rather pointed criticisms of the Hamas culture he grew up with in Gaza:



How do you make peace with a suicide cult?

Wow. That was enlightening. How did the world get saddled with this evil group of people? They weren't always this way, probably, eons ago. Religious zealots, I guess, coupled with brutal history, coupled with lack of education of the masses. Did you notice he said their goal is not compromise? The next time you hear someone say they won't compromise, well.....

Hamas are extremists and I have no sympathy for them. But at the same time Isreal helped to create them and pushed the Palestinians to support them (with US help by forcing a democratic vote in the Gaza strip) so this conflict is of their own making.

There is a long history of this form of radicalism in Islam. Thomas Jefferson, who ordered the first Barbary war had this to say about the pirates (who were Muslim extremists):

“We took the liberty to make some inquiries concerning the Grounds of their pretensions to make war upon a Nation who had done them no Injury, and observed that we considered all mankind as our Friends who had done us no wrong, nor had given us any provocation. The Ambassador answered us that it was founded on the Laws of their Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as Prisoners, and that every Musselman who should be slain in Battle was sure to go to Paradise.”

This didn't start with Israel.

The current resurgence of Radical Islam can be traced back to Nazi influence in the region in the 1930s through the end of the war. The Muslim Brotherhood, from which all these radical sects share a lineage, was funded by and closely aligned to Nazi Germany. The Baathist party of Saddam and Asad was founded by the Nazi Michel Aflaq.
