Rachel Ehrenfeld and Alyssa A. Lappen look discuss what Hamas has been up to -- The Hamas-Russia Connection:

...HAMAS is busily preparing for war. A HAMAS official, identified as Abu Huzeifa in an interview with Gaza City newspaper Dunia al-Watan, revealed that since Israel left the Gaza Strip, HAMAS has built training camps in all Palestinian cities. These camps are training new cadres of Jihadists. The basic training lasts a month, followed by three more months of advanced instructions in battle skills, endurance building, marksmanship, missile launching, commando fighting, hand-to-hand combat, crawling under fences and urban warfare.

The instructors are HAMAS members trained internationally, most likely in Lebanon, Syria and Iran. According to Abu Hufeiza, the HAMAS military production units are diligently developing new weapons, including rockets and advanced explosives. He emphasized that the al-Kassam Brigades will remain as HAMAS’ military arm and will continue its struggle to liberate all Palestinian lands. According to the Dunia al-Watan reporter who accompanied Abu-Hufeiza to these training camps, each camp occupies over five acres, and accommodates dozens of trainees...

This is who Jimmy Carter believes the Israelis should be assisting the international community with providing funding for. We may as well slit our own throats, too.

Wow, that is certainly not to be hoped for, yet suprisingly not unexpected. The situation is grim when Israeli heavy equipment is forced to dig up Jewish graves in pullout territory for fear of what the Palestinians would do. Perhaps a few training camps here and there is as good an outcome as could have been expected. Mr. Olmert has his work cut out for him!
