Good news. Hopefully this will lead to peace in Palestine AND Iraq.
"Hamas has accepted Israel's right to exist and would be prepared to nullify its charter, which calls for the destruction of Israel, Aziz Dwaik, Hamas's most senior representative in the West Bank, said on Wednesday."

Have you decided if you are going to go volunteer and fight in Iraq? Still thinking stupid? It is raining and cold in So Cal. I think I will go to Starbucks.
"The Arabs have never been conquered."

O, I see, you’re an Arab Supremacist.
Go Hamas! Nicely done!
It seems Hamas are now denying the story.
I thought Hamas would deny the story. It is too good to be true: they can't change their charter without a lot of debate. Even if they do, there will be a large minority who insist on continuing the war against Israel.
It seems almost impossible for Muslims to tolerate the existence of any other religions.
"The Arabs have never been conquered."
Not by the Turks? I seem to remember the Ottoman Empire covering a large part of what had been the Arab empire. (There is a map on Wikipedia under "Ottoman Empire".)
More recently, the French took over Algeria, the Italians conquered Libya, and the Israelis won a couple of wars against Arab alliances.
And now most of the Arab world is part of the Starbucks Empire.
Habis, why don't Arabs bomb Palestinians who cooperate with America and Israel?
'I have a suggestion, drawn from a visit here and several days of conversations with Israeli, Palestinian and U.S. officials: Follow the lead of Salam Fayyad, the prime minister of the Palestinian Authority and the man who's largely responsible for Ramallah's turnaround. He has drawn up a plan for a two-year transition to statehood. The United States should endorse this goal, explicitly, and call for an immediate start to negotiations about the details.
"Fayyad is the only game in town, but his plan isn't sustainable without a political process," says Martin Indyk, who heads the Saban Center at the Brookings Institution and organized a three-day conference in Jerusalem to discuss U.S.-Israeli issues.
...Fayyad's biggest success story -- to the Israelis' astonishment -- has been in security. When he became prime minister in 2007, gunmen roamed the West Bank almost at will. Fayyad insisted that the government would establish a monopoly of force, and with U.S. and Israeli help, he has delivered results. The United States has funded the training of what are now more than 2,000 well-disciplined troops, with several thousand more planned by 2011. The Israelis, after initial reluctance, have given them responsibility in West Bank cities.' --David Ignatius
