The Hamas is increasing its terrorist plotting activities in Gaza, and continuing to spread jihad:
The Hamas terror organization, which won control of the PA legislature in January elections, is setting up a standing army in Gaza based on its military wing, the Al-Kassam Brigades.
A senior official in the Hamas military, known by his nom de guerre, Abu Huzaifa, told the PA news agency, Duniya Alwatan, that since the disengagement, the Hamas has set up military bases in every city in Gaza. The bases have been training a new cadre of highly motivated fighters for the Jihad, or holy war against non Moslems, and in particular, against the Jewish state.
Recruits are sent to the camps for four months. The first month consists of basic training, and after that, recruits are taught more advanced military maneuvers.
More specifically, Abu Huzaifa said PA soldiers are taught a number of techniques including firing rifles, shooting Kassam rockets, crawling under fences, and climbing up and down buildings. The instructors are Hamas terrorists who received training abroad.
The goal, he said, was to turn the Al-Kassam Brigades into a full-fledged standing army. That army would be dedicated to eliminating Israel and replacing it with an Arab state ruled by the Hamas.
Abu Huzaifa said that military units were already working on developing more sophisticated rockets and explosive devices to advance the Jihad.
And if they're working in collaboration with Iran, then there's the danger of their trying to obtain chemical/nuclear weapons to use as well. Anything's possible, so we gotta be on the lookout.

I don't want to come across as extreme, but since HAMAS is the government, and HAMAS is launching rockets in to a nation not its own, doesn't that mean HAMAS is actually at war with Israel, but Israel, is doing nothing...so therefore...WTF?
Issue a 48 hour ultimatum.
2 days to turn it off. Find the Qaasam's and stop it ..otherwise
Kill the lot.
From stem to stern, from Ashkelon to the Egyptian border. Invade, conquer, lay waste, go home. How can it be worse than just sitting there get rocketed?
Either HAMAS will be a govt or not. They now have the responsiblilty, and the palestinians CHOSE this fate, and chose HAMAS.
Epa, I agree completely. I wrote on my site a ways back about rethinking Total War, and many of you are fans of Victor Hanson, who a day or so later slaughtered me with his own piece on the subject (funny how old Vic can make your own articles look like crap in a matter of seconds, ain't it?). But for those here who aren't familiar with some of Hanson's writings on this subject as well as all of the things we write about, I highly recommend going to his website and reading up. www.victorhanson.com
