do you think israelis should kill children in LEBANON and PALESTINE?

MaddyIsBack.

YES.

For all the brainwashed zionists here who are saying 'they can't because Hamas refuses to', READ THE NEWS.

Hamas have asked on numerous occasions to discuss issues with Israel. It is ISRAEL who is continuously REFUSING to do so and prefers to slaughter Palestinian children instead.

No,nor should Hams "negotiate" with a criminal entity like the so-called "israeli government". I think Hamas needs a responsible negotiating partner; as Hanyiah pointed out in his Washington Post interview this "israel" doesn't even have a declared border; it's not even a legal government.

Yes. Hamas is representing the palestinian people *at the moment*. Any negotiations obviously must be with them, it is not up to Israel or America to choose a leader for the palestinians. They need to get off their high horses and strive to achieve peace with hamas because the situation is not going to get better. With this mentality, hamas should refuse to negotiate with the Israeli government because in hamass's eyes and palestinians eyes' they are the terrorists. The only people who are suffering now are the palestinians, Israel is not in any pressure for a peace proposal.

I am sick of reading the lies and distortions given her by Israeli supporters who don't even bother to read facts or history. Israel started all these problems themselves when they started stealing Palestinian lands and bulldozing their homes 60 years ago and are still doing it today.
Israel blockaded Gaza 2 years ago and that's when Hamas started firing rockets into OCCUPIED Palestine.
The West Bank was supposed to be a Palestine state but during the last few years has been invaded by 280,000 ILLEGAL settlers Even the Israeli government made a token attempt to remove them but now have given up and even support them despite UN resolutions against this latest move. Hamas will talk with Israel if or when this ILLEGAL blockade is lifted and most of the prisoners Israel are holding are released. Then Hamas will release the captured soldier . Its time someone called the tune instead of Israel and Hamas are doing just that.

Read the Israeli charter, it states that there will never be negotiations, only terrorism to destroy Palestine.

Kimimela-PRO ISRAEL AND PROUD

hamas is a party that doesnt recognise israelis right to exist, that wants to push all jews into the sea, and thinks blowing up civillians with suicide bombers, rockets and nail bombs is an ok way to fight for their cause...

they dont want to reason, or talk or comprimise, theyre not interested in whats best for the palastinian people they claim to fight for, they want to obliterate isreal , then the jews then start on the rest of the world....

talking with them wont get us anywhere, we need to bomb the sh1t out of them and stop them any way we can before they take the life of one more israeli or jew....

Hamas is the Arab counter part of Likud(formerly Irgun the murderous Jewish terrorist group-name changed after election-LABELED as such by the British). It is time the Israelis quite using Hamas as an excuse to kill Arabs, steal more of their land to build ILLEGAL Jewish only settlements and buffer zones and when the Palestinians retaliate for this brutality by lobbing missles in southern Israel they are called terrorists.

The following link gives some UNBIASED statistics on deaths on BOTH sides-see whom has the right to protect themselves from whom-it sure isn't the Israelis:

The following Israeli soldiers(you read right-bless their human hearts) are also speaking out against the brutal Israeli army:

They have no business negotiating with anyone since it isn't a legitimate government,just a zionist version of Taliban Afghanistan. Hamas is the legitimate majority of a democratically elected government of the legitimate people of Palestine. And they should not negotiate with psychopathic killers.

RIGHTS???

Yes tell Hamas if they leave then Israel will take down those walls.

But that would not work because the walls were there before Hamas was. That would not happen, but that would be a good ideal.

Well negotiate with who????? Israel cant, even if they wanted to,Hamas does not negotiate with Israel. Hamas denies Israel's right to exist. Hamas refuses to abide by previously signed agreements. Even the recently-expired six-month “cease-fire” between Israel and Hamas had to be slowly and painstakingly negotiated through Egypt because Hamas would not talk to Israel.

Throughout 2008, Israel worked with the United States toward an equitable two-state solution with the Palestinian Authority while Hamas did everything in its power to disrupt and derail the peace process – firing thousands of rockets into Israeli towns and cities, firing on Israeli soldiers and civilians and attempting to infiltrate Israel for the purpose of committing suicide bombing attacks. Hamas also continues to hold 22-year-old Gilad Shalit, the Israeli soldier the group kidnaped in June 2006.

Hamas made clear that the “cease-fire” was not a prelude to peace. On the contrary, Hamas used the time to build more tunnels to smuggle weapons and supplies from Egypt; to build more rockets and to improve the range and accuracy of its existing arsenal. A new cease-fire before the tunnels and weapons are destroyed or neutralized would simply give Hamas the opportunity to follow the example of Hezbollah and rearm and regroup for a future battle to achieve its goal of Israel's destruction.

NO, and the US shouldn't negotiate with Bin Laden. {If he's alive.}

No nor should anyone else. They are an outlaw terrorist faction and their desires and lies or just rubbish.
Negotiate with those looking to build a home not a rocket launcher.

Under no circumstances should Israel negotiate with a terrorist organization. Never.

Terrorists are not rational people. They only understand one language: Violence.

Show strength, fight and defeat them and you will make them respect you. Show weakness, they will keep going.

"Read the Israeli charter, it states that there will never be negotiations, only terrorism to destroy Palestine."

Israel has not charter and if it did it would probably state the destruction of Israel as well.

Israel needs to negotiate with Hamas, but it should not negotiate with the PLO.

Israel does not have that option, so the question is moot.
The strongly-held position of Hamas is that it will not negotiate with Israel, because Israel has no right to exist.
Interesting how some pro-Palestinian posters are turning the truth backwards, and saying that Israel is the one that will not negotiate and only wants to destroy.
This is an illustration of what Paolo Freire, in "Pedagogy of the Oppressed:" the oppressor always accuses his victims of the crimes he himself wants to do. Hamas has in its charter that it will never negotiate with Israel, but only continue using violence to destroy it. Israel has tried to build up Palestine, negotiated to form a Palestinians state; it just wants the Palestinian state to grant Israel the right to exist. Meanwhile, as Palestinians deny Israel's right to exist, they nevertheless expect and demand all kinds of support from Israel; much of which Israel actually grants, in a humanitarian spirit.

Only after Hamas changes its charter.

Lupines supports GEERT WILDERS

Absolutely not. That is like asking America to negotiate with Bin Laden. Not only should nobody entertain this notion that Israel should negotiate with Hamas, we should be helping Israel to fend off Hamas and we could use more allied help in Afghanistan too!

Not until Hamas learns to negotiate with Israel.
