Thousands support ‘day of rage’ against Hamas – Israel News, Ynetnews.

(Video) Facebook group ‘ Revolution of Honor’ urges Gaza’s residents to take to streets. Fatah lauds initiative, Hamas says not aware of any protest plans

VIDEO – Inspired by the recent uprisings in Tunisia and Egypt, a Facebook group called “The Revolution of Honor – Gaza” has called for a “day of rage” next Friday to protest against the Hamas government which rules the coastal enclave.

The group has grown to some 10,000 members just three days after it was launched.

The group’s Facebook page features hate slogans directed against Hamas and its leader Ismail Haniyeh, a photo Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas beside another photo of Che Guevara, as well as detailed instructions on how to promote the ‘day of rage’ using YouTube, Twitter, emails and banners.

Tawfiq Tirawi, a former intelligence chief in the Palestinian Authority and a current member of Fatah’s Central Committee, supported the group’s cause. “We are a nation which fights with all means at its disposal to gain freedom and independence from the Israeli occupation, so how can we accept Hamas’ despotic regime?” he said.
