Not your grammar, or ethics teacher either **DSeid**. ---

**DSeid** & **Shodan** , take your beatings like men. The horrible humiliation which awaits is not fatal. ---

**Sevastopol** , you are under no compulsion to read or participate in a **Pit** thread about you. You will not, however, continue this series of personal “exchanges” in this thread or the **GD** Forum, in general. [/Moderator Mode] ---

Or feel free to Pit me! Yeah, Hamas … bad people … How _would_ an attempt at imposing more Islamic law go over in the PA? I had been thinking the answer would be poorly, but the magnitude of the “protests” over that stupid cartoon makes me wonder if their would not be more support than I would think. Meanwhile, Hamas associated individuals are involved in launching rockets against Israel from Gaza although they seem to have been acting without official blessing, and a Hamas leader states negotiation for a “long term truce” is possible but recognition of Israel’s right to exist is not and never will be. ---

I’ve no interest in the personalities behind **DSeid** and **Shodan**. Rather both have alluded to evidence presented in this thread which apparently corrodes my argument. Yet when asked they decline to state it. Now I may in fact have overlooked an interesting argument and wouldn’t wish to miss it. I’m merely making the point that this new-found timidity and circumlocution of the 2 suggests that the argument in question isn’t of much force. That’s addressing the issue in as much as I can discern it. There’s a pit thread about l’il ole me? Who knew? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/hamas-wins/341687.md?page=13)
