So, let's see. You used to call yourself a liberal. But things changed after 9/11, and now you're not sure what to call yourself anymore. Try "neo-neocon" on for size.
There's a movement afoot in the blogosphere to post the Hamas charter, in order to encourage those who are not aware of what Hamas stands for (is there anyone who fits that category any more?) to read it. Here's a link.

I'm a lifelong Democrat, born in New York and living in New England. Surrounded by liberals on all sides, I've found myself slowly but surely leaving the fold and becoming that dread thing: a neocon. My friends and family are becoming sick of what they see as my inexplicable conversion, so I've started this blog to give vent to my frustration. I have a Master's Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, and my politics make me a pariah there, too. Little did I know that I moved in such politically homogeneous circles. Why the apple? See this.

Geez, I guess Israel shouldn't have funded and supported Hamas eveyr way possible since its earliest days, huh?
Just post article 11 directly.
I keep on doing it.
It should give the euros a REAL THRILL
What's the point? Morons like Troutsky will just declare that it was written on Opposite Day, or whatever psychotic multiculturalist fantasy is currently fashionabe in academic circles.

What's the point? Idiots like Anonymous here will just say "Hamas wrote some bad things; clearly all Palestinians are sub-human beasts who are worse than Nazis. If I were driven of my land and put under military occupation and penned in by an electrified fence, I'd be perfectly happy with it."
The truth is, (and I know this is a generalization) most Jewish people seem to resent the Palestinians for doing what they wish their ancestors had the courage to do all those years: resist. Instead of scattering to the four winds, the Palestinians have said 'no' to displacement, occupation, and annihilation. I can't approve of their tactics or their support for religious fundamentalists, but their courage and resolve is beyond dispute.

So are you saying that the reason that the Jews were slaughtered by the Nazis is because they didn't have the courage to resist?
There is a monumental difference here, which is that the Israelis are not trying to kill the Palestinians. If they wanted to kill them they would just march over with their vastly superior army and kill them, end of story. All the Palestinian "courage" and "resolve" with which you are so enamored would not matter one iota if the Palestinians were facing an enemy who was actually evil, and actually bent on their destruction.
I like Hamas. Who else can we kill except Al-Qaeda and Hizbollah?
There's got to be some people out in the world to fight against and obliterate. Without an Evil to rail against, no Good would result.
Israel doesn't operate under that battle philosopy. Bad for them, good for HAMAS.
If you don't get rid of your enemies when they begin, they will get rid of you at the end.
How many Israelis have been killed that might have contributed to the State of Israel? Their population wasn't high to begin with.
Hamas's charter is Hitler's Mein Kampf. People who don't want a fight, tend to get a fight, and not on their terms.
You should really do your research better. Hamas is underway at revamping their charter to indicate their more nationalistic views and less fundamentalist values.
