#3 I think some of the Hamas weapons are of US govt. origin and taken from the Fatah forces. However, these weapons aren't crucial. The most important thing the gunmen do is provide cover for the specialists who fire the RPGs, place mines, fire rockets, etc. and these weapons are not of US govt origin (some are, however, US made).

#4 Who'd a guess that ? Arming Paleos and not having them turn your own guns and ammo on you. Oh yeah, Rice.

#5 I see the State Department's solutions to problems keep coming up tails.

Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is not a good policy.

Get rid of the State Department and start over with new people that aren't fucking clinically insane.

#6 But the weapons were for the Political Wing. It's not fair!

#8 Hamas has been careful not to send the police force to the battlefield so as to avoid a total breakdown of its official institutions.

Now that sounds very strange, either they can't trust the "Police" or they're afraid of the people when there are no cops around to back them up? Or is it that they don't dare show just how Piss Poor the cops really are?

Odd.
