Hamas PA elections campaign

In response to yesterdays Hamas support rally, LiveJournal user Andrushka (posted in Russian) presented some of the Hamas leaflets used in their election campaign, among with photographs of the "candidates" on their military parade and some of their "military achievements".

He was wondering for how long will the world continue to watch all this while talking about solving Israeli-Palestinian conflict in peaceful democratic way. He also suggested that it might not be long till we all will have to defend our right not to study Koran.

Well, I think those question are rhetorical... All I can say is, they've managed to learn the art of victimhood quite well... and the world's buying it. What are they doing right? And why can't their opponents do the same, only better?

Play victimhood? I'm not sure that it would work, or would be the vise thing to do. We must unveil the lies that Neopals are telling the world for the last decade.

No... I mean doing something quite the opposite but with an equal effect!

We should de-romanticize victimhood.

It's going to be a tough one. Sympathy to the victims is so loved sentiment in the world today. especially in Europe.

There's only one thing that's better than weakness: strength. But strength that is presented the right way. The world should be made to feel as if it has been swept off its feet by Israel. I know it sounds strange... but stranger things have happened already!
