I am realy worried about Hamas and what it means to the middle east?

[coldiggs]

I realy think this could be a major step towards war. With Hamas heading the Palistine leadership I think it will give Isreil the green light to let all hell lose. And that could lead to a larger regional war that we would get drawn in to. I hope Im just paranoid though.

Hamas is really crazy. And pissed off.

But, the Mossad has its ways, too .................

3. Similar to the IRA, Sein Finn evolution...

Hamas just needs to pick a new name.

4. Relax, Hammas has been running the show for a long time now n/t

5. There is a good side to this.

When Israel or us sit down to negotiations with the Palestinians, we are talking to those who really have control. They can't use the excuse of 'It not us, its the other organization'. If Hammas is willing to put itself in this position, it must be willing to use political tactics. This could be a positive thing. Take a wait and see approach.
