« Joe the Plumber, As Qualified As Many Mideast Reporters | Main | Glenn Greenwald on Reporting in Gaza » Another Great Idea From a Settler Leader09 Jan 2009 10:43 am
The last time I interviewed the superannuated settler fire-breather Elyakim HaEtzni, he was wearing sweatpants up to his belly-button, and mismatched slippers. But he's ready to fight Hamas to the last Israeli, and ready to have other Israelis live forever in conditions of chaos: The goal of the war, he writes, is for Israel "to smash Hamas, and to neutralize its motivation to fire rockets at us
- but not to liquidate them completely; Hamas should rather remain,
together with Fatah, as two Palestinian terrorist gangs that will
prevent each other from becoming a state!"
