#4 Their opposition to the EU boycott, imposed after last year's election victory by Hamas, is driven by concern that the aid cutoff has been counterproductive - failing to persuade Hamas to moderate, while contributing to the turmoil as rival Palestinian factions clash in the streets.

Wow, by killing all of those corrupt-as-hell Fatah wankers, these Hamas types really put the EU over a barrel. As if giving them more money will "persuade Hamas to moderate". How blithering can you get? Resumption of funding to Hamas will result in a supermarket-sweep of weapons buying and renewed festivities on an even grander scale. How does this constitute finding any sort of solution? The EU couldn't find its ass in a Turkish prison with both hands and a flashlight.

"The only solution is to recognize the government that was legitimately elected - and talk with all of its members," she said.

As I say: When your only tool is talk, everything begins to look like dialogue.

#5 I'm resigned to Europe's demise, let them send whatever they want. If those retards can't figure it out for themselves I have no sympathy for them.

#6 "If we don't end the boycott the region will descend into civil war and al-Qaida-type terrorist groups will emerge," Belgian Socialist lawmaker Veronique De Keyser said.

Maybe I'm stupid but I thought when Hamas won that election it was kinda like an al-Qaida-type terrorist group emerging and that's why the boycott was started to deny funding to terrorists.
