Jihadist Groups Fill a Palestinian Power Vacuum - New York Times

Jihadist Groups Fill a Palestinian Power Vacuum - New York Times

This Times piece would have you feel sorry for Hamas and Fatah as the radical Islamists thrash around in Gaza. This is an unbelievable story devised to make the reader sympathize with Hamas and Fatah as they clash for power as the jihadists infiltrate Gaza and elsewhere. Whether Hamas is or is not a jihadist group is irrelevant. They are terrorists because they kill innocent Israeli civilians using suicide bombers.

And we have two of our Vermont Congressional delegation tramping around the Middle East weighing in on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict criticizing Bush for not doing more to aid the peace process. Please help me understand what it is the U.S. should do that it's not doing? Perhaps they should recognize the Hamas terrorists as legitimate?

The Muslim and Arab world must act to suppress their radical Islamists and those the teach/preach global jihad. Israel should not and will not be eliminated. The wealthy Arab countries should mend its internal conflicts becuase they are targets, too.
