According to The Washington Times, the terrorist organization Hamas, referring to the Israeli pullout from Gaza as a victory, has no plans to live in peace with Israel.
Senior Hamas commander Mohammed Deif, who masterminded the deaths of dozens of Israelis in suicide bombings, also urged the destruction of the Jewish state.
It was the latest call for continued violence by Hamas officials as the group refocuses its armed struggle on the West Bank, where most of Israel's 246,000 settlers live.
"You are leaving Gaza today in shame," Mr. Deif said in comments directed toward Israel, which finished evacuating the last of its 21 Gaza settlements Monday.
"Today you are leaving hell," he said. "But we promise you that tomorrow all Palestine will be hell for you, God willing."
Interestingly, the article makes no reference whatever to the Palestinian Authority. I once thought they might come to the table.
