A soccer match in Gaza dedicated to ‘Kidnappers
and Killers’ shows yet again that the world must deal with Hamas before there
can be any possible, "Two State Solution."
The flyer (pictured) distributed
before the Palestine Cup Final game between Shujaeiya and Rafah clubs, says
this match was between the kidnappers of Oron Shaul and those of Hadar Goldin, both
killed in ‘Protective Edge’ but their bodies continue to be held by Hamas.
"It is difficult to put into words how great
the outrage is at Hamas' bottomless inhumanity," charged Rabbi Abraham
Cooper, associate Dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center.
"While the UN
prepares its next denunciation of Israel for defending her citizens last summer
from Hamas terrorism and while world leaders demand that Israel agree to a
timeline to reach a ‘Two State Solution’, those leaders maintain their silence
at the outrages like today's flyers and allow Hamas to use the remains of dead
Israeli soldiers to taunt the grieving Israeli families while teaching young
Gazans more hate and inhumanity,” Cooper added. "Instead of granting a
Hamas group the legitimacy of an NGO at the UN, world leaders, starting with
those gathered at the G7 conference in Germany should denounce Hamas be their
genocidal hatred of Israel and the Jewish people,” Cooper concluded.
