Thanks to my good friend, Bob Poris, for forwarding this "Bulletin" from the Palestinian Media Watch. Dated April 30, 2008, it is titled "Hamas Holocaust Perversion: Jews planned Holocaust to kill handicapped Jews," and was written by Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook.Marcus and Crook describe a Hamas TV education program broadcast last week which taught "that the murder of Jews in the Holocaust was a Zionist plot with two goals:
"1 - To eliminate 'disabled and handicapped' Jews by sending them to death camps, so they would not be a burden on the future state of Israel.
"2 - At the same time, the Holocaust served to make 'the Jews seem persecuted' so they could 'benefit from international sympathy.'"
In summary, Hamas said "The Satanic Jews thought up an evil plot [the Holocaust] to be rid of the burden of disabled and handicapped."
A major problem in dealing with terrorist groups and/or religious fundamentalists is their inability to accept and incorporate facts into their belief system or modus operandi. Their lives are defined by insanities which are incomprehensible to rational people. Their "truth" is unrelated to evidence or objective standards of behavior.
Thus, there isn't much to say about this, other than it tells us quite a bit about Hamas, but nothing about the Holocaust. And it reinforces our understanding of the impossible situation in which Israel finds itself. How can a country (Israel) be expected to negotiate with a terrorist force that not only showers your land with death-dealing rockets on a daily basis, but teaches its people (especially its youth) that Jews are "satanic," that they are "pigs" that they do not deserve to live, and that the most godly thing a Palestinian youth can do is to serve as a suicide bomber to hasten the day that Israel and the Jews are driven into the sea?

If the world hasn’t figured out how those guys act, we are all doomed to sit by and watch them take over more than we can afford. It is not as if they are a new organization and no one has a clue as to who and what they are.
We forget that the 6 million Jews (60% of the entire European Jewish population) was only about 9% of the 50 million people that died in WW2. When one considers that Jews made up less than a fraction of 1% of the world’s population, we had better take heed. There are about 12 to 13 million Jews left in the world. Israel has 6 million of them. If half the Jews in the world are wiped out and a new world war ensues, everyone will be in danger! The Jews are the excuse, just as they were for Hitler and his dreams. Now we have a situation where it looks like the world is waiting for Israel to take on Iran. What a crazy world we live in. who will take on North Korea if it becomes necessary. It will not be Israel.
