The Times of Israel—Hamas promises ‘blood for blood’ after tunnel bombing, but sticks to unity plans:
Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh on Tuesday said the terror group intends to respond with violence to the deaths of seven Gaza terrorists Monday after Israel blew up an attack tunnel that stretched into Israeli territory, but suggested the response would be delayed as Palestinian factions work toward reconciliation.
“I assure the leadership of [Palestinian] Islamic Jihad: blood for blood, destruction for destruction,” said Haniyeh, speaking at the funeral for those who died in the tunnel, which was built and controlled by the PIJ terror group. PIJ possesses the second-largest military in Gaza after Hamas.
Five of the dead belonged to PIJ, two of whom were senior leaders, while two members of Hamas’s military wing were also killed during a rescue operation in the exploded tunnel, according to the group.
While Haniyeh vowed to attack Israel, he stressed that Hamas’s immediate response would be to quicken his party’s reconciliation efforts with the Fatah party, which controls the Palestinian Authority.
Earlier this month, the two factions signed an agreement in Cairo allowing for the PA to resume control of Gaza — which Hamas seized in a near civil war with Fatah in 2007 — by December 1.
“The response to this massacre is to move forward toward the restoration of national unity because the enemy knows that our strength is in our unity and no people under occupation can win if they are not united,” Haniyeh said.
Hamas’s deputy leader in Gaza, Khalil Hayya, also speaking at the funeral, stressed the terror group would wait for a strategic time to respond.
“We are a prudent resistance that knows how to manage its conflict with the enemy. [We] know how to avenge and to strike in the specific place and time that will hurt the enemy,” he said.
Hamas has accused Israel of stirring up chaos in Gaza through the demolition of the tunnel in order to foil the ongoing reconciliation talks.
So has Fatah. Fatah spokesperson and vice chairman of the party’s revolutionary council Fayez Abu Eita echoed Hamas, charging that the detonation of the tunnel by the Israeli army was aimed at disrupting the unity talks.

SnyderTalk Comment:
Sane people have a hard time understanding the way “Palestinians” think. This article provides a great example of their thinking.
Hamas operatives were digging a tunnel under the Gaza border into Israel. They’ve been digging tunnels for years in hopes or kidnapping or murdering innocent Israelis.
Israel has developed technology that enables them to locate the tunnels and destroy them. That’s a well-known and well-publicized fact. Even so, Hamas continues to dig tunnels.
This article tells about a tunnel that Israel destroyed. Some of the diggers died, and the only thing that matters to Hamas leaders is the death of the would-be murderers.
Imagine trying to reach a peace treaty with “Palestinian” leaders. Please don’t buy into their propaganda.
This is a serious matter. Israeli lives are at stake.

Replacement theology is ridiculous. To arrive at that conclusion, you must ignore every promise that Yahweh made to Abraham. There is no biblical support for replacement theology in either the Old Testament or the New Testament.

“The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me. Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.” (John 17: 22-24)
