Recently I predicted in this blog that Hamas’ election victory would cause them to soften their stance on Israel. I based that prediction on the fact that it’s hard to reconcile “destroy Israel” with “we’ll all be meeting at the parliament building at noon to talk about it.” There are certain viewpoints in this world that really require hiding.
Oh how the doubters doubted and the mockers mocked me. They said a tiger never changes its stripes. They said I did not understand the crazy radical mind. But according to the BBC news, I nailed it:

Now I shall make another prediction. The people who told me I was wrong will rush to the comment section to punch themselves silly with off-point arguments about why they were really right all along. Let the self-pugilation begin.
