Hamas's primary goal is to remain in power after the war, to continue its jihad to eliminate Israel. This is certainly not the right time to talk about a "two-state solution." The terrorists see it as a reward for their atrocities against Israel. gatestoneinstitute.org/21813/recognit…

Anas al-Sharif, the Al-Jazeera "journalist" who was killed by the IDF in Gaza this week, never concealed his affiliation with Hamas. Al-Sharif was recruited by Hamas on December 3, 2013, and served as the commander of a rocket-launch squad. gatestoneinstitute.org/21832/al-jazee…
