Hamas Hatred

By David Aikman

A Hamas member of the Palestinian Legislature, Fathi Hammad, said recently in a press conference in Gaza that killing a single Jew is the same as killing 30 million Jews. Never mind the faulty arithmetic--there are only 15 million Jews in the world--it is quite incredible that such pure evil can be spouted aloud and nobody complains.

The United States claims to be pursuing a peace agreement between the Palestinian Authority and Israel. Of course, the executive of the Palestinian Authority is not composed of Hamas. But the Palestinian parliament still has Hamas members in it in good standing.

How is it possible to pursue peace with a national entity that allows into its legislature such odious concocters of evil? Was not one Hitler enough?
