You are so so right Donny about cutting off democracy in the Middle East.

Now go tell that to the Europeans and our own government.

EU warns of cutting off aid if Hamas wins election

(Echoes of Algeria)

JERUSALEM - Europe's top diplomat warned Sunday the
European Union might cut off aid to the
Palestinian Authority if Hamas militants win next month's parliamentary election, reflecting international alarm over the Islamic group's strong showing in
West Bank local voting.

Javier Solana, the EU's foreign policy chief, said during a tour of the region that European taxpayers would have a hard time supporting the Palestinian government if it included a party that supports violence and advocates
Israel's destruction.

The U.S. House of Representatives approved a similar declaration Friday. The Palestinian Authority counts on foreign aid for half its budget.
