Uprooted by internal unrest and popular anger, the long-time Fatah party is now out of the political picture.Hamas is now in control of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. The militant group and now so-called "political party" refuses to recognize Israel's right to exist as an independent Jewish state and condemn the innocent killing of Israeli civilians.
What are your views on Hamas' upset victory over the Fatah party in the Palestinian elections. Do you think that the Mideast process is now headed towards certain doom and that the turmoil in the Arab nations is about to become unhinged and spiral out into total war??? Also, what do you think are the appropriate actions that the US should take to ensure stability in thsi volatile region of the world?

haha, only America, England, and Israel are civilized, while the rest of the world are barbarians and slaves. Shheesh, somebody shut this kid up!
Iran?
"Like every political organization in the history of the world, Hamas too will become mired on the game of politics and fail to accomplish much of anything."
hitler?
People voted and Hamas one, DEMOCRACY at work!
tongue-in-cheek?
Well, I'm going to say that Israel has a lot of crap on its hands and I feel sorry for it, thats it. I do think Hamas won fair and square and that democracy was at work but that doesn't make me happy with the election outcome.
No, the Hamas victory shows that fatah is a dumb political party. Fatah ran multiple candidates in single member districts while Hamas ran one man in each district. Thats how Hamas won this election. How is palastine a soveirgn nation with no specific borders? Ever since Hamas found out that they have gained power they have moderated their views. They may even form a coalition with fatah. I think your remarks are rather ignorant.
* 80% of Palestinian Arabs say that even if Israel surrenders all of Judea, Samaria, Gaza, and eastern Jerusalem, the Palestinian Arabs should still insist on the "right of return" --which would mean flooding Israel with millions of Arab "refugees" and thereby putting an end to Israel as a Jewish state.
* 59% of Palestinian Arabs believe that Hamas and Islamic jihad should continue their violence against Israel, even if Israel surrenders all of Judea, Samaria, Gaza, and eastern Jerusalem.
* 96% of Israeli Jews say that the 9/11 attackers were terrorists, but only 37% of Palestinian Arabs consider them terrorists. In addition, 26% of Palestinian Arabs believe that Israelis planned the 9/11 attacks.
* 61% of Israel Arabs, and 42% of Palestinian Arabs, say they support the terrorists who are attacking Americans in Iraq. Zero percent of Israeli Jews support the attacks.
Most Muslims are unequivocally Anti-Zionist and Anti-Israel.
Islam is a massive religion, and it will overtake Christianity in a couple of years. Making such a generalization is foolish on your part. It is biggots like you that make it hard to eliminate hatred and start peace.
Good one.
This thread is about Palestinian Arabs.
No, it's not. It's quite accurate.
No, it's not. Bigots and murderers like Hamas make it hard to achieve peace.
The land partitioned by the UN to become the nation of Israel was a majority Jewish. Not a single Muslim was kicked out.
