Hamas burns Gaza church and monastery

In a story that has gotten far too little attention from the international media, Hamas burned down a Greek Orthodox Church and monastery in Gaza on Sunday (link in Hebrew). 'Moderate' 'Palestinian' President Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen condemned the burning. Abu Mazen said that it was "the offspring of one of the poisoned fruits of the black revolution perpetrated by the Hamas militias, who have been blinded by extremism, and who engaged in spilling 'Palestinian' blood and violated the Covenant of Omar. After a series of executions without trials... destruction of property and the spread of instances of extortion and theft and attacks on holy places, Hamas is now destroying the holy places and houses of worship of the Christian communities." [Translation from Hebrew by yours truly. CiJ]

Smooth Stone points out that if the target had been a synagogue rather than a church, Abu Mazen would likely have applauded:
Folks, you did know that Mahmoud Abbas is also the same person as Abu Mazen, the engineer of the "Black September" Terror Attack during the Munich Olympics, which killed 11 Israeli athletes and a U.S. citizen ?

The State Department knows.
Yeah, but that doesn't make him any less 'moderate.'
