Palestinians waste weaponry and momentum with new barrage

Gaza militants launched over 100 missiles; Debka.com

It is really time for Palestinian Youth to take to the streets and reclaim their country from the self-destructive warlords currently in charge. While the whole world watches and huge swaths of the free, democratic areas are yearning for more democratic revolutions to support (admit it, Tunisia felt good and Egypt was a temporary nirvana), for some reason Palestinians want to go against the trend and incite violence and war.

I've written it before and I'll say it again: If a million Palestinian women, children and men walk into Jerusalem without a weapon among them, they will have their country within months, and a nation with such strong foundations will prosper and be long-lived.

Debka reports 110 rockets and mortar rounds were launched from Gaza on Friday and Saturday, while Jpost claims 70 were counted. Hamas missile attacks rarely achieve anything significant militarily (10 Israelis were injured the past two days, plus the usual property damage) and they damage the cause politically. It's time to make the IRA move and bury these obsolete, nation-destroying weapons, and fully embrace an open, transparent and fully democratic election process.

Towards a peaceful, loving and prosperous Palestine!

Inshallah
