A clandestine undertaking on behalf of Israel, the Jets and the Jews.

 
Hamas PR Offensive

Instead of condemning terrorism, an editorial in today's (Beirut) Daily Star calls on Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Fatah "to explain to the rest of the world why it is that they do the things they do and therefore what sort of arrangement can make them stop. Arab countries are filled with people who support ­ or at least understand ­ the use of terrorism as a means to resist occupation. But Westerners in general and Americans in particular remain largely in the dark about the conditions that convince some people that suicide bombings are the only option left... Perhaps the most important audience for such an explanation from Hamas and similar groups is American Jewry. Members of that community need to know how many deaths have been caused ­ with their money, and in their name ­ by the stubborn cabal that rules Israel. It may be too late to hope that very many American Jews will listen, but the militants are at least partly to blame because they have put off for so long that which they should have said years ago. Still, it cannot hurt to try."
