A Different Drummer


Another, other, other, depressing slide downward in the Middle East:
"Hamas declared open war on Israel yesterday, pledging to renew suicide bombings after Israeli leaders vowed to kill senior politicians from the militant movement, including Ismail Haniya, the Palestinian Prime Minister" (The Times)
Is it just me, or wouldn't a more accurate opening paragraph be "Hamas declared open war on Israel yesterday, after Israel declared open war on Hamas"?

Is there a way you can vow to kill another country's recently elected prime minister and not declare open war on it? Either way, bad news for everyone. It feels like no-one is even trying anymore.
