Well, Bush denounced Hamas’s electoral win earlier, asked Abbas to stay in office anyway and demanded the winners be disarmed, and now I’m watching Netanyahu on MSNBC blaming Sharon for leaving Gaza and “emboldening” Hamas.
Why their election did not immediately turn Hamas into wonderful angels was not explained.
Boy, can you imagine what would happen if there were democratic elections in all our imperial satellite states in the Middle East? I don’t think they’d be our puppets anymore. Maybe then we could try having a limited constitutional republic.
