Letter to the editor: will anyone speak up against Hamas?

Dear editor,

As a former Stroud resident I view your paper online but have never attended any of these protests.

Therefore, I have one question – are the hostages still being held by a proscribed terrorist organisation, namely Hamas, ever shown support at these rallies?

And does anyone ever speak up against the actions of of Hamas?  Reports in  several media outlets today show protests in Gaza calling for Hamas to disband.

The risk those people are putting themselves at could result in their death and not at the  hands of the Israeli army.

Yours, Paul Glendell
