Israel

Hamas' offer to return the kidnapped IDF soldier should lay to rest any fantasies the Lefties have that the new PA government could "grow" into something other than a bloodthirsty pack of thugs bent on the destruction of Israel. The recent change in control of the PA gave rise to flights of fantasy that a terrorist organization can change overnight when faced with the challenge of running a government. Well, the kidnapping of an Israeli soldier and the demands from Hamas for numerous concessions erased any doubt that the kidnapping was done at the direction of the PA and with its support.
