Is that your American style DEMOCRACY?

Aid and democracy are two separate issues.

The Palestinians have elected a government of their own choosing, and are bearing the benefits and/or punishments of that democartic choice which they freely made. Elect a government dedicated to destroying Israel = get no aid from a world that has recognized Israel's right to exist. Duh. The punishment is they are losing international support, but it's totally Democratic.

The foreign community is not obligated to support Palestinians that democratically elect a government that is anathema to the foreign community.
