re: #20 DaddyG

Time for a primer please…

Is the current Hamas leadership the officially elected government of the Gaza territories?

Why or why not.

Who should be recognized as the official government?

What is the current geo-political make up of the area (other than the more general Israeli / Islamic conflict?

Help this poor ignorant lizard!!

Thanks in advance…

The Gazans held an election where Hamas won the majority of seats, thanks to the manner in which in which the elections were held.

Hamas is a terrorist organization.

Since Hamas is a terrorist organization and they are the elected government, the Gazans effectively shot themselves in the foot by electing people we had said we would not work with.

Somehow, they never expected on having to deal with the consequences.

Sucks to be them.
