OK.I wondered that there isn't much talking about this issue on this newsgroup,
and I thought I missed something,but now I intend to write a long letter about this expulsion.
Before it I want to make some things clear:
1.My English is not perfect and I know it,and I also know I have typo errors,
  so please don't send me any mail saying something like "Waw,you have a lot of
  errors!".Thank you.
2. The opinions expressed in the following letter are only mine, and I do not
  represent anyone, but I must say that there are plenty of people in Israel
  who thinks ~as I do.
3. I do not write this because of a will of apologizing,but because I want to
  explain some things that seems to be misunderstood in the word.


As you know the Israeli gouvernament decided to expulse 415 HAMAS activists,for
different periods who vary from 9 months to 2 years.A thing you don't know is
that at least 50% of the palestinians are happy about this step. The HAMAS
is a terror organization,whose target is not to arrive to a homeland for the
palestinian people,but to arrive to it through WAR.This thing is mentioned in
the palestinian convention,and its origin is in the Supreme law of the muslims
-the Koran: One of the 5 fundemental things a muslim have to do is the Jihad-the
holly war,who promises paradise and ethernal life to anyone who dies in war.
The PLO,who is(or at least was) another terrorist organization renounced this
idea,and it is now willing to achieve peace by peace-talks. When chances to such
a thing appeared, the HAMAS started a horrible chain of terror acts,the last one
being the killing of the Police officer.
We do not talk here about a punishment to the palestinian people.We talk here
about a gift.The HAMAS target was to stop the peace talks,the only way
palestinians can achieve a self definition,maybe a state.
You may ask why the palestinians do such a noise of this thing.Well, they fell
that they have to be a united people(and this is correct),but most of them
were afraid of the HAMAS too.Hundreds of palestinians were killed by the
HAMAS under the title of betrayal,when in fact the only thing they did was
sitting in their homes and not throwing stones on soliders.
   You may also ask,with justice,why weren't they put to trial. Well,the Israel
state is in war.A continously,hard,hurting war. And when you are in war,which
is a very ugly thing,and fight terrorism,which is an even more ugly thing,you
have no choice sometimes,and you MUST do ugly thing. This is the only way
you can efectively fight against terrorism.I know a lot of you cannot understand
this,but you can ask a guy from Britain.I am sure he,and his people will be
very happy if ALL the members of the IRA will be expulsed,and not just the
activists,as in Israel.

Well,it is a hard thing to explain. I can only say,even if it sounds funny to
some of you ,that this thing was done for the peace.The HAMAS was hitted,so the
PLO will stand.PLO is the best badness.

Again,the opinions are only mine,and I stand behind every word writed here.

P.S.: Yasser Abu-Ommar Arafat said the the HAMAS is a pain in the ass,or
something like that,and that they are like the Zulu(Inkata) tribe in Africa.
P.S.2: Please send me a lot of replies! But do not transsfer it to the personal
plain, and do not use rude language. Try to think about what I writed,try to
see things from my point of view,and then reply!
