Understanding Hamas...

It seems Barack Obama says he understands Hamas's view.

Given his statements, I have to disagree.

If someone truly understands Hamas, they would not be opposed to letting Israel do some serious ass-kicking.

Secret negotiations with Hamas?

The Jerusalem Post is reporting that Hamas officials may have held a secret meeting with Democratic officials. If this is true, then someone needs to ask Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid some tough questions.

I hope it isn't true. But if it is, then it's not without precedent. See John Kerry's trip to Paris to talk with the North Vietnamese.
