Guardian useful idiot Charles Harb lavishes praise on terrorist groups Hizballah and Hamas, and looks forward to the election of Barack Obama: Charles Harb: Hizbullah’s steadfast resitance [sic] to Israel has paid off.

For some reason, Harb seems to believe Obama will be as friendly to the mass murderers as he is.

Current western support for Arab dictators and the associated labelling of resistance movements as terrorist organisations may not be to its best interest. Striking mutually beneficial deals with those that more closely represent Arab populations rather than with the corrupt dictators that rule them may have better long-term pay-offs. Perhaps the election of a new US president will usher a more peaceful era for the war-weary Middle East.

“Striking mutually beneficial deals” means, of course, throwing Israel to the wolves.
