Israeli minister issues death threat to Hamas leaders
Sure, you may argue that they have a right to self defense. Although this may be true it does not have the same backwards one sided application that Israel or other countries may have you believe. For it too would apply to Hamas as well.
By comparison to the call to wipe out a country's elected leadership to that of Ahmadinejad's alleged comments on Israel. Would it be justifiable for Hamas to build up troops near Israeli positions and respond to the threats as we have vis a vi war ship deployments and pressure within Iraq?

Now, I understand the amount of shock the alleged "wiping off the map" comment from our good old friend Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. And yet -- I find it strangely ironic that an individual in Israel would come to such terms, but in so doing completely destroy all credence that we should only fear Iran for its loony leaders and "possible" intentions to create nuclear weapons. When we have a perfect example of a loony leader in Israel whom has nuclear weapons dishing out death threats.Guardian Unlimited wrote:
All Hamas leaders should be killed to end rocket attacks from Gaza, a senior Israeli cabinet official said today, as Israeli planes carried out new air strikes in the territory.
"I don't distinguish between those who carry out the (rocket) attacks and those who give the orders. I say we have to put them all in the crosshairs," said Benjamin Ben-Eliezer, the national infrastructure minister, on Israel Radio.
