With Hamas' recent overwhelming victory in the Palestinian elections Israeli media is full of details on the dangers of Hamas and their desire to wipe Israel off the map.
What scares me most about this new reality is the stark way in which it makes clear that the majority of Palestinians are religious. Why this scares me is because the Thomas Friedman argument of giving economic hope to the deprived being the best way to fight terrorism and conflict falls apart when you introduce religion.
