Hamas win Palestinian elections
Hamas seems to have a clear majority in the Palestinian elections:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/mid...st/4650788.stm While the initial response is concern of having to deal with a "terrorist" government, I seem to recall (perhaps erroneously) similar reservations about the election of Yasser Arafat in the last elections - when he was viewed as an essentially "terrorist" leader who went on to "officially" renounce terrorism. Is history repeating itself? |
