Do you honestly believe that Hamas would stop aggression against Israel - rockets and tunnels - if Israel dropped the blockade? On what basis other than hope?[/quote]

This sentence presupposes that Hamas cannot abide by an agreement, or that they are some sort of irrational actor.  What is *your* basis for that?[/quote]

1. Having a charter that lists the destruction of Israel and the murder of Jews as their primary goal.
2. Starting a war that they cannot win and knowingly puts their own civilians in danger
3. The fact that Hamas continued to shoot rockets and dig tunnels after the last 2 ceasefires.[/quote]

How is this NOT obvious to others?!?!  [b]I sincerely don't understand how there are people out there who think Hamas will stop their aggression!!![/b][/quote]

I sincerely don't understand why you and other like you don't see that Israel's goal is expansionist and has taken land belonging to the Palestinians ever since 1967 and continues to do so!!! There are numerous settlements that have been built on land confiscated from the Palestinians.

I sincerely don't understand why you cannot see why after almost five decades of conflict since 1967, Israel has not been successful in subjugating the Palestinians!!! What makes you think that Israel will be successful in the future?

I sincerely don't understand why you cannot see that Israel's actions in the past week will have the effect of creating another generation of militant Palestinians!!! The ones who used to fight Israel after 1967 are now dead or aged. You have another generation that is now confronting Israel.

I sincerely don't understand why you cannot see that Palestinians view Israel as the aggressor and a country that really does not want peace because any peace agreement will require withdrawal from much of the land that it has confiscated!!! As long as there is no peace Israel can hold on to the land it grabbed and continue to grab even more.
