CNN interviews Hamas Leader

Hamas is now ruling in Gaza strip after a showdown with Fatah,the Palestinian political party which runs the West Bank. Hamas' leader, Khaled Meshaal lives in hiding in Damascus, Syria. CNN correspondents interviewed him in his secret hideout .

Meshaal is a complicated, calculating man. To his people, he is seen as a humanitarian and as the leader of Hamas. To Israel, the United States and a list of other nations, he is seen as a terrorist.

Next month will mark the 10-year anniversary of an assassination attempt on Meshaal's life by the Israeli intelligence organization Mossad.

While Meshaal was living in Jordan in 1997, Mossad agents breached the building in which he was sleeping. They injected poison into his ear. The Jordanian authorities quickly discovered what had happened and through pressure from both the Jordanian king and some U.S. officials, Israel eventually provided Meshaal with the antidote he needed to survive.

"I am 51 years old, and the past 10 years have been a gift from above," he told CNN.

Arms Bazaar

Suspicion knows no bounds. The pic on the left shows a Hamas militant in the Passport processing area at the Rafah Border Crossing in the Gaza strip.

Gaza city was taken over by the militant Hamas yesterday after a big bloodbath killing many Fatah loyalists. Sad to see Palestinians now fighting against each other but it is an awful reality and with the increase in the internecine fighting and civil unrest,Israel seems to have its job cut out for them!

The video shown below is a footage of the Gaza arms bazaar.RPGs, AK47s, hand grenades handled even by kids and out for easy sale.

Teaching terror to Palestinian kids?

Al-Aqsa TV launched by Hamas, the rebel Palestinian Group and now part of the Legislative Parliament broadcasts shows which are making children a mouthpiece of their propaganda against Jews. Mickey Mouse as Jihadist clone!?



Latest report says that Hamas has suspended the TV programme and taken it off the air.
