New (terrorist) boss; same as the old (terrorist) boss
So, we've decided to support the more moderate terrorists dedicated to destroying Israel, giving them your hard-earned tax dollars to help pay the bills.
The United States lifted sanctions on the Palestinian Authority Monday, four days after the Islamic Hamas movement seized the Gaza Strip, leaving President Mahmoud Abbas to set up a rival Fatah-only government in the West Bank.
U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said she had informed new Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad of the decision in phone call earlier Monday.
"I told him the United States would resume full assistance to the Palestinian government and normal government to government contacts," she told reporters at the State Department.
The Middle East seems to have the ability -- much like The Shadow -- to cloud men's minds, making them incapable of recognizing evil, even when it makes no effort to disguise itself.
Nice to know Sec. Rice and the Bush Administration are eager to join the long list of past pols and diplomats who have eagerly pursued their places in history, certain that throwing money at the Devil would surely bring peace to the MidEast -- or at least a Nobel Peace Prize to the mantle.
Suckers.
