News from The Israel Project
Israel suspended peace talks with the Palestinians late last week in the wake of a unity deal between the Fatah faction that controls Palestinian territories in the West Bank and the Hamas terror organization that controls the Gaza Strip. The Israel Project has been working to ensure that journalists, lawmakers, and the public understand Hamas’ true nature, but we need your help. We all know that:
1. Hamas is recognized by the international community as a terrorist organization.
2. Hamas has never given up its goal to destroy Israel.
3. Hamas was one of the first Islamist terror groups ever created.
4. Hamas engaged in mass suicide bombings against Israelis for years.
5. Hamas was backed by Iran for decades.
6. In fighting to seize the Gaza Strip, Hamas handcuffed captives and threw them off
buildings.
7. When Hamas thinks that Palestinians are cooperating with Israel, they strangle
them and drag their bodies through the streets.
7. Hamas has launched thousands and thousands of rockets at Israeli civilians.
8. Hamas kidnapped Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit and celebrated the kidnapping at mass rallies. The group has said they want to do it again.
9. Hamas celebrated 9/11 and condemned the killing of Osama Bin Laden.
11. Hamas is a genocidal terrorist organization that consistently denies the Holocaust and according to its charter, seeks to kill Jews.
Peace Prospects Dead
The Jerusalem Prayer Team reports: The deadline for the “peace deal” Sec. Kerry was forcing on Israel (April 29) has passed. What happened? The peace-killing union between Fatah and Hamas preempted Kerry’s folly. Meanwhile, Hamas has entered into a new union with the “Army of Islam,” a branch of al-Qaeda. Very soon, al-Qaeda operatives will be stationed in Bethlehem and Ramallah, a mere stone’s throw from Jerusalem.

Muslim Group Attacking 9/11 Memorial Museum
Eaglerising.com reports: This time CAIR working to whitewash history by requesting the removal of the words “Islamists” and “jihad” from the main video on “who” attacked America on 9/11 2001. These terms refer to the ideology, the mindset of the terrorists, which CAIR is trying to bury. CAIR fantasizes that the devout Muslims who perpetrated the acts of terror on 9/11 have no basis for their actions in Islam. But I beg to differ. Read more.

NYPD Drops Intelligence Unit Detested by Islamists
Islamist-Watch.org reports: A year to the day after the Boston bombings, the New York Police Department announced the end of a program designed to protect the city from violent jihad. The Demographics Unit, which angered Islamists by gathering intelligence on Muslim neighborhoods and the radicalism therein, has been disbanded. Reflecting Commissioner Bill Bratton’s softer approach, the NYPD will strive to amass comparable data through outreach. Mayor Bill de Blasio praised the “critical step forward in easing tensions between the police and the communities they serve, so that our cops and our citizens can help one another go after the real bad guys” – whatever that means.
