This piece about the Palestinian Government in Gaza , is important because
it demonstrates that an Islamic Government with significant control over a
geographic area and a discrete population will ultimately fall prey to the
gravitational pull of Sharia law at its most base level. At the level you
are seeing described in this report, it would not be unreasonable to expect
dhimmitude, and the persecution (including the killing) of Jews subject to
Islamic control.
Israel is the canary in the mine and Hamas's actions, and the sharia itself,
poison the atmosphere.

Hamas enacts Islamic (Sharia) laws:
Hand amputation, crucifixion, lashes and execution
By Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook
Hamas members of the Palestinian Legislative Council in Gaza have approved a
new bill "to implement Koranic punishments," including hand amputation,
crucifixion, corporal punishment and execution. Drinking, owning or
producing wine is punished by 40 lashes, while drinking in public adds three
months' imprisonment. Several laws are directed against Hamas's Palestinian
rivals, including a law intended to inhibit non-Hamas negotiators by
sentencing to death anyone who was "appointed to negotiate with a foreign
government on a Palestinian issue and negotiated against Palestinians'
interest."
The following is the description as it appears today on the Al Arabiya
website:

Headline: Hamas approves law of punishment by lashes, amputating hands,
crucifying, and execution -- in order to implement the Islamic Sharia law.
Hamas members of the Palestinian Legislative Council approved in its meeting
in Gaza a new bill proposed by the Hamas who have a majority in the
Legislative Council, whose purpose is "to implement Koranic punishments."
The newspaper Al Hayat of London reported on Dec. 24, 2008, tha t this step
is seen as unprecedented, and has brought criticism and concern from human
rights organizations in the Gaza Strip, especially as this law includes
punishments by lashes, cutting off of hands, crucifixion, and execution...
The language of the law proposes "primary and secondary" laws. Primary laws
include: "Koranic laws, blood revenge, lashes, crucifixion, and execution
..."
The text stresses: "These punishments will not be canceled or pardoned ...
except if pardoned by the victim himself...
Section 59 of the law establishes that "punishment of death will be enacted
on any Palestinian who intentionally does one of the following: Raised a
weapon against Palestine on behalf of the enemy during war, was appointed to
negotiate with a foreign government on a Palestinian issue and negotiated
against Palestinians' interest, performed a hostile action against a foreign
country in a way that endangers Palestine in war or in harming political
relations, served a foreign army in time of war, advised or helped soldiers
to enlist in this army, weakened the spirit or the force of resistance of
the people, or spied against Palestine especially during war."
The punishment of lashes appears in many sections of the law. Section 84
states that: "Whoever drinks wine, owns or produces wine will be punished
with 40 lashes if he is Muslim, and anyone who drinks wine, or angers
another p erson [with wine], or causes him distress when drinking wine in a
public place, or goes to a public place while drunk, will be punished with
no less than 40 lashes and imprisonment for the minimum of three months."
