-I'm still kind of astounded at the idea that Hamas could "advance the lives of Gazans": Gazans who cannot take a simple bike ride out of Gaza, nor visit relatives in the west bank surrounded as they are with automated Israeli machine gun posts or take a plane like most people can in a city of 2 million? Lol forget it... nor even go fishing off the shore without being attacked by Israeli gun boats...but oh! they hate without reason they do...
