"Terrorists are terrorists, and Israel sees no difference whatsoever between Hamas terrorists acting against Israel and Chechen terrorists acting against Russia," continued the statement. "There is no difference between Khaled Mashaal and [slain Chechen separatist and guerrilla leader] Shamil Basayev. Israel has always sided with Russia in the fight against Chechen terror, so we expect similar backing when it comes to Hamas terror against Israel."
Er is wel een verschil: Hamas wil 'geheel Palestina' bevrijden, en pleit in haar handvest en in talloze speeches en interviews voor het doden van Joden, terwijl de Tsjetsjeense terroristen slechts voor de bevrijding van hun eigen land strijden, en ik neem aan dat ze ook niet alle Russen willen doden noch de Russen verantwoordelijk houden voor de beide wereldoorlogen. De hypocrisie van veel landen in de beoordeling van Hamas tegenover terroristen die hun eigen land bedreigen is opvallend.

Comes after Medvedev suggests group should join peace process.
The Foreign Ministry on Wednesday fiercely rejected the suggestion of Russian President Dmitry Medvedev to allow Hamas to join the peace process, comparing the organization to Chechen terrorists.
The ministry also expressed "deep disappointment" in Tuesday's meeting between Medvedev and Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal in Damascus.
"Hamas is a terror organization for all intents and purposes, and has the declared goal of annihilating the State of Israel," read a Foreign Ministry statement. "Hamas operatives are responsible for the murder of hundreds of innocent civilians, including immigrants from the former Soviet Union and Russian nationals."
The ministry said that the "enlightened nations" must not categorize terrorists as good or bad in accordance with their geographical location.
"Terrorists are terrorists, and Israel sees no difference whatsoever between Hamas terrorists acting against Israel and Chechen terrorists acting against Russia," continued the statement. "There is no difference between Khaled Mashaal and [slain Chechen separatist and guerrilla leader] Shamil Basayev. Israel has always sided with Russia in the fight against Chechen terror, so we expect similar backing when it comes to Hamas terror against Israel."
