Hamas leader and Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Ismail Haniya said in a recent interview that he would step down so that "other people can still eat and not like...die."

Haniya added "Dying is bad for the palestinian people. We do enough of that already with the suicide bombings and whatnot. Dying because you don't have any food just seems dumb."

Haniya's comments come at a particularly turbulent time in the middle east. Marketing suggestions by his current staff have ranged from "food for rockets" to "dont die of starvation. we're not Africa you know."
