Yesterday I posted an article at rightwinggranny.com about the plans Hamas<\/a> had for the tunnel system it had built into Israel. The plans included explosions under kindergartens<\/a> and the slaughter of kindergarten school children. After thinking about that for a while, I realized that in spite of all I have written about the war between Israel and Hamas, there are some very basic things that I did not understand.<\/p>\n

The article I posted included Hamas\u2019 plans for the tunnel system:<\/p>\n

Israeli<\/a> security sources, citing information acquired in interrogations of captured brigands, described a scenario under which hundreds of heavily armed Hamas<\/a> fighters would have spilled out into Israel in the dead of night and within 10 minutes been positioned to infiltrate essentially all Israeli communities surrounding the Gaza Strip<\/a>. \u00a0Waiting then in hiding until schools and kindergartens<\/a> were occupied, the terrorists would then attempt to kill the children first, and then kill and kidnap as many Israelis<\/a> as possible. \u00a0The plot was set to take place during Jewish New Year<\/a>, on September 24.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Think about that for a minute. This is not a war about territory. Hamas wants the land, but more than that they want to kill all of the people in the land\u2014children included. Their intention is to eliminate the Jewish people<\/a> in Israel. This is genocide. This is what Hitler<\/a> intended. After Hitler, the world said, \u201cNever again.\u201d Did we mean it?<\/p>\n

This is not an ordinary war. This is a war in which the people of Israel<\/a> are fighting to live. Hamas in Gaza needs to be dealt with the same way that Hitler was dealt with\u2014they need to be taken out of power, tried for war crimes<\/a>, and their supporters put in jail. Hamas was elected\u2014the people in Gaza knew what Hamas was and voted for them anyway. I don\u2019t trust the United Nations<\/a> to set up a neutral government in Gaza, but control of Gaza has to be taken away from Hamas and other similar terrorist groups.<\/p>\n

The criticism of Israel\u2019s military action in Gaza needs to stop. The criticism is coming from people who either don\u2019t understand what is actually going on or have a political agenda. The amount of propaganda coming from Hamas makes it very difficult to realize that Israel is fighting for the lives of its people. Israel did not begin this war, but in the interests of the people in Israel, it has to end the war with the total defeat of Hamas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
