Canary - "... Israel getting in early with the usual threats..."
Yeah. Those damn Israelis eh? Aren't they horrible? Not like those lovely Hamas types who what nothing more than to live in peace and harmony with their neighbours, right?
Seriously, how can Mr Corbyn, or any other non-muslim, be pro-Hamas? Are they insane? Hamas are deemed to be a terrorist organisation in the whole of the EU, Australia, Canada, the USA, Jordan, Japan, New Zealand and (of course) Israel. And with good reason; one read of their Charter tells you everything you need to know about this vile organisation that would have Israel wiped off the map, every Jew in the world imprisoned or murdered and the rest of the non-Islamic world oppressed under the yoke of Islam.
Following on from Orderlimit's choice quotes, more from that lovely Hamas Charter -
On peaceful solutions:
"There is no solution to the Palestinian problem except by Jihad. The initiatives, proposals and International Conferences are but a waste of time, an exercise in futility."
On the followers of other religions:
"Hamas is a humane movement, which cares for human rights and is committed to the tolerance inherent in Islam as regards attitudes towards other religions. It is only hostile to those who are hostile towards it, or stand in its way in order to disturb its moves or to frustrate its efforts. Under the shadow of Islam it is possible for the members of the three religions: Islam, Christianity and Judaism to coexist in safety and security. Safety and security can only prevail under the shadow of Islam, and recent and ancient history is the best witness to that effect. The members of other religions must desist from struggling against Islam over sovereignty in this region."
