In the past few months, Mosab Yousef - the Son of Hamas- has been facing the threat of deportation from the US on the grounds that he is a "terrorist threat."
Thankfully, his asylum trial has taken an unexpected turn for the better.

Interview With the Son of Hamas
Screw finals. I have to share this with you guys.
This is an interview (courtesy of MEMRI) with Mus'ab Youssef, the son of a Hamas founder I was talking about. For those of you who don't know, Youssef fled to the US some years ago, moved to San Diego, and converted to Christianity. And just recently he made a public statement- and wrote a book- about how he spent more than a decade working as a double agent for Israel's Shin Bet security force. His story has rocked the entire world.
It's one thing to hear about him, and quite another to see him so passionately argue with someone about Islam and Israel. You do not want to miss seeing this.

Hurt Me Good, Infidel
If Hamas and Israel were a couple, they'd have a BDSM sex life. And I'm not sure which one is the glutton for pain.

Welcome to 2009
School's back in session, went to a pro-Israel rally to stand against the MSU today. We had a pretty good showing. Winter break was fun, hanging out with my best friends again was cool, and New Year's was very drunk. I hope all of your New Years were happy and healthier than mine.
The Gaza offensive has pretty much continued on the same track, save for the couple rockets Hezbollah threw at it yesterday. Israel has conditionally agreed to a cease-fire, but I see Hamas violating it again within the next year. What a shocker.
My friends have brought a couple of disturbing media items to my attention. I think it's worth checking out.
"Children of Hamas"
and
"A Gaza Fighter Smiles at Suffering"
Both are very incriminating, and very, very explanatory as to why innocent people are suffering in Gaza right now. Give them a look-see.

The Gaza Offensive
A lot has been going on these past few days. Israel finally retaliated against Hamas for breaking their 6-month truce (technically they broke it long ago, but whatever), and has been pounding them unbelievably hard, as they should. Of course, the entire Arab and anti-Semitic world is screaming bloody murder at Israel to stop, and the sad part is Israel is probably going to give in to international pressure soon.
It's sad that Palestinian civilians are dying. But the fault does not all lie with Israel. This article sums up the fault of Hamas in the matter very well. If you provoke a stronger enemy, you're going to get raped. Hamas broke the truce. They used it as a resting period simply in order to stock up military supplies and build an army to attack Israel again. What Hamas is experiencing now in Gaza is nothing more than what they deserve for provoking a stronger enemy.
I heard Israel confirmed that it will launch a ground offensive on Gaza, but don't take my word on this just yet. My guess is the IDF is risking its own people so as to quiet down all the bitching about the civilian casualties. Of course, they excuse that Hamas uses schoolyards and civilian backywards as launching pads and civilians as human shields.
It's inconceivable how people can condemn a country for acting in self-defense. If rockets from, say, Iran, landed in say, Kentucky, the American people would demand action. There is no reason why Israel is not entitled to defend its citizens as well.
In other news, I'm fighting the flu. Right before New Year's. Damn it.
