Captain's Quarters: Hamas Shits Where It Eats

According to the Washington Times, Hamas has damaged relations with key states in the Middle East, a development that could mean difficulties in their offensive against Fatah and their desired war on Israel. Jordan and Egypt have both determined that Hamas has masterminded plots against them, and now seek to curtail their operations.

This apparently will not interfere with other Hamas plans, including their Food-for-Airplanes program, in which the Palestinians' democratically-elected government trades what could have been food, medicine, the infrastructure and other non-essential items for airplanes to be flown into Israeli skyscrapers. Meanwhile, the Old Gray Mare wants engagement with these savages.

With more on the way to Allah every day. The Taliban and AQ want jihad; they're getting it.

Jimmy Olsen. Now there's a reporter.
