Hamas refuses to Stop Fighting

from Foxnews:

....the leader of the militant Palestinian group vowed Saturday that Israel had squandered any chance of settlement and negotiation.

Damascus-based Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal gave a fiery speech on the Arabic news channel Al-Jazeera condemning Israel's attack on the Gaza Strip, describing it as a "holocaust."

Meanwhile, Israel pounded rocket sites and tunnels Saturday while its planes dropped leaflets warning of an escalation, and Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas predicted a "waterfall of blood" unless all parties adhere to the U.N.'s call for a durable cease-fire.

....

Diplomacy was not finished, but it appeared to be in retreat following both sides' defiance of Thursday's U.N. Security Council resolution calling for a halt to fighting. Struggling to keep peace efforts alive, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak invited representatives of Gaza's Hamas rulers to Egypt for further talks on his cease-fire initiative.

****
Hamas wants bloodshed.
Hamas, the 'religious Moslems' thrive on the blood of innocents.

Israel is acting in self-defense.
Israel is acting to protect its people's right to exist.

Hamas has fired thousands of rockets into Israel, aiming at innocent civilians.

Israel has a right to self-defense.
