YOU DON'T NEED TO TALK TO THEM TO MAKE THEM A SOVEREIGN STATE:
Israel to impose Hamas sanctions (BBC, 2/18/06)
Before the cabinet meeting, acting Prime Minister Ehud Olmert called the Hamas-led PA a "terrorist authority" and ruled out direct talks. [...]"It is clear that in light of the Hamas majority in the PLC and the instructions to form a new government that were given to the head of Hamas, the PA is - in practice - becoming a terrorist authority," Mr Olmert said.
"Israel will not hold contacts with the administration in which Hamas plays any part - small, large or permanent."
What Hamas fears most is responsibility, so just pile more on them. Posted by Orrin Judd at February 19, 2006 9:45 AM

I suppose pleasant fantasies about Hamas are preferable to gloomy musings on the Endlosung to this situation.
Alas for me, I cannot help comparing Israelis to Americans and Hamas to Pontiac.

The Israelis aren't going to commit genocide, even if they need to.
