Reply #86: lack of intellectual center is more like it [View All]

none of us (ie, you and I reading this) could ever be in Hamas because we have brains. and if we lived next door to Israel, who had tanks and planes and bombs, we wouldn't throw rocks at them, we'd tried to live with them and work out a peaceful land-sharing agreement, and we wouldn't be pushy about it because we'd have the intelligence to figure out that you don't go to the bargaining table with nothing to bargain with.

Hamas is just flat-out stupid to think they can beat Israel.

Israel leaders, OTOH, are dumb in their own right to think they can intimidate a group that doesn't care if it lives or dies.
