Rice Says Hamas-Led Government Will Not Get US Aid
2006-02-16
U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice says no U.S. aid will go to the Hamas-led Palestinian government, but the United States will still contribute to humanitarian programs like immunizing children in the Palestinian territories. In testimony to a Senate committee Wednesday, Rice repeated the U.S. position that Hamas must meet international demands to renounce violence and recognize Israel's right to exist.

Hamas is preparing to take control of the Palestinian parliament when it convenes Saturday. On Wednesday, the group nominated Abdel Aziz Duaik as parliament speaker and Mahmoud Zahar as faction leader.

In Israel, top policy makers began a three-day review of how to deal with a Hamas-dominated Palestinian government. Acting Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has said Israel will have no contacts with the Palestinians as long as Hamas is involved in terrorism and refuses to recognize Israel.

#10  The Palestinians really need to face flat-out extinction as an object lesson of what awaits those who support and institutionalize terrorism.

Not only that, but read this.

#9  I wouldn't even do that. As long as their parents are into Jew-hating, it's only a matter of time before the kids take it up as well.

I'd be torn over not supporting at least humanitarian aid for the kids and such ... except for the fact that more Palestinian aid is like incubating bulk Ebola virus. The overall result is an increase in net human death (a Palestinian specialty) and not much else. The Palestinians really need to face flat-out extinction as an object lesson of what awaits those who support and institutionalize terrorism. Idjits.

#8  Saw her testifying to Congress on C-SPAN last night and was once again struck by how much better I would feel voting for her as President than Giuliana, Warner, or any of the rest of the Republican and Democratic candidates being put forth for the job.

#4  This is why Meshaal has been on his Grand Tour of Arabia. He knows the kufr Jizya Well is about to run dry.

We can only hope that he was greeted with brotherly affection, pumped full of galllons of tea and baklava, ever so politely shown the door with the admonition "Keep fighting the good fight, O Noble Palestinian Martyrs™, Allan will reward you," and sent home with not so much as a euro to take back to the Paleo treasury.

Insh'allah.

#3  Agreed. The right response. I await the consequences of the money tap being turned off with interest.
