Hamas car bomb injures 13 Israelis Hamas suicide bombers in two military-style Jeeps yesterday blew themselves up at a Gaza border crossing, wounding 13 Israeli soldiers.

No Peace Without Hamas By Mahmoud al-Zahar The U.S.-Israeli alliance has sought to negate the results of the January 2006 elections, when the Palestinian people handed our party a mandate to rule. Hundreds of independent monitors, Carter among them, declared this the fairest election ever held in the Arab Middle East. Yet efforts to subvert our democratic experience include the American coup d'etat that created the new sectarian paradigm with Fatah and the continuing warfare against and enforced isolation of Gazans.

I held rallies in Genoa and other cities in the region," she recounts. "But I didn't talk with the people about local problems. I told them that the most important thing for their Italian identity is to stand by Israel's side."
Tunnels bring life to Gaza, and make a select few rich Despite the risks, 16-year-old Yihya, from the Rafah area in the Gaza Strip, says building tunnels to Egypt is the only job he knows that puts food on the table.

Born to Demolish The Israeli authorities responsible for demolishing Palestinian homes ? the municipality and the Ministry of Interior in Jerusalem, the ?Civil? Administration in the West Bank and the army ? do not provide advanced warning to us or, indeed, to the families themselves.

Matt Rees: how I found peace in Gaza I found the Middle East a lot funnier than you might think, too. To the amusement of Palestinian friends, I perfected my impersonation of Yasser Arafat and I also did a pretty good Ariel Sharon. The first Hamas man I met wasn't a stereotypical bloodthirsty fanatic. He was a comically tubby man with a grey beard circling his jaw and a clean upper lip, who spoke English like a suave 1950s character actor and drew his vocabulary from a calendar designed to teach a new word each day
