How do all these terrorist-sympathizing radicals keep mistakenly thinking that Obama is one of them?Rather like Ron Paul and the Truthers, isn't it?
One of Barack Obama’s Middle East policy advisers disclosed today that he had held meetings with the militant Palestinian group Hamas -- prompting the likely Democratic nominee to sever all links with him."No connection," you see. Entirely unrelated. Utterly irrelevant. And if this shows up in a Republican campaign ad, John McCain will denounce it.
Robert Malley told The Times he had regularly been in contact with Hamas, which controls Gaza but is listed by the US State Department as a terrorist organisation. Such talks, he stressed, were related to his work for a conflict resolution think tank and had no connection with his position on Mr Obama's Middle East advisory council.
Hmmm. Yet another damaging scandal hits the Obama campaign just about the time it looks like Hillary's finally doomed to defeat. These coincidences keep piling up like turtles stacked on a fence post.
Those shifty superdelegates might want to keep in mind who they're dealing with when they go up against Team Clinton. No rules in a bar fight.
The only scandal here is that Obama will again bow to the will of the political elite and break ties to anyone who will talk with Hamas. Will he be like Jimmy Carter and wait until after he's left office to learn his lesson? Hamas is no more a terrorist organization and no less a band of freedom fighters than the armies we sponsored Nicaragua and Afghanistan in the 80's. It's time to stop believing the propaganda coming out of Washington and New York and take the same stand as Ron Paul. We should talk to anyone, but go to war for no one but ourselves. We'll mind our business and leave you alone as long you mind yours. Most of our "enemies" in the GWOT ask no more of us than this.
