#3 Obviously, when given a choice between a corrupt existing govt, a criminal (Barghouti), or terrorists (Hamas), the Paleostinian "people" prefer terrorists.

Lovely people - let's give 'em a state!

#4 Nablus is the largest Muslim pig-pen in the West Bank. If it is now a terrorist governed entity, then it is a legitimate target for a nice little carpet bombing.

Scroll down the following link to see Muhammad - Pig-One of the Muslims, being tossed into Hell.

#5 bummer for Hamas. Now the people that voted for them expect will Hamas to make their lives better. You got the power - now you're the man to bitch and whine about.

#6 It is obvious that the Paleos have not bottomed out yet. There is still the core of the earth to dig to. This thing will have to play itself out. I just hope that the US will stop raining our dwindling tax dollars down this rathole.

#7 AP have you seen this?
US House of Reps will not support PA if Hamas runs
The US House of Representatives released a statement Friday saying that if Hamas participated in the Palestinian Authority parliamentary elections, the US will cease to support the PA.

#9 Better be the same, lotp. Otherwise watch the blogs fire up and public pressure come crashing down. Hope American politicians recognize that their job security is hanging by a thread on this. Americans are not gonna put up with their pockets being picked to fund suicide bombings in Palestine in some kind of "economic revival" racket for Hamas' Palestine.

#10 Well, the people are starting to have their effect on the politicians on illegal immigration, though it is still a boulder up the hill in Hades thing. The same will have to happen with the Senate AND the Administration. They better watch out for the public's purse, and that means showering money on fools' projects, like Paleo *cough cough* government.

#11 The Senate is troubling me.
Senate elections cost a lot.
I suspect that they are being influenced by lobbyists representing firms with lots of Saudi and Soros investments.

They have always been a rather strange bunch...

#12 Looks like the END of that "State".
