Charles Krauthammer & George Jonas on the Never-ending War

Charles Krauthammer has just written a new column, as has George Jonas. Both are well worth a read. From the former comes this snippet:

For Hamas, the only thing more prized than dead Jews are dead Palestinians. The religion of Jew-murder and self-martyrdom is ubiquitous.
