There won't be peace until Hamas decides to quick lobbing rockets into Israeli towns. You don't see Israeli suicide bombers and such. Hamas may have legitimate concerns, but throwing rockets into Israeli towns is not going to do anything but breed more violence. Since its birth in 1948, Israel has had to be on constant standby due to the threat of 22 Arab nations surrounding it who want nothing more than its absolute destruction. That is why Osama exists. That is why the PLO exists.
I am not saying the Palestinians have been treated fairly, however, it seems that with every concession these people get, they use it to create more violence. They deserve self determination and a government of their own, but they don't have the right to impinge on the same freedom of Israel. Israeli towns were victimized first by homemade bombs from Gaza compliments of Hamas. There are innocent victims on both sides, and when Hamas stops using their wives and children as shields for their murderous activities, then maybe the innocent victims will not exist.
Let's stop saying Poor Hamas! That's like saying to the bully in the school yard, "You poor little thing, you threw a rock and hit that little girl and she had the nerve to throw one right back. TSK, TSK!"
