Two arms of Hamas, the militant arm and the arm that joined the political process. If you want to have the militant arm grow in control, you're on the right path. Oh, I see.. I guess they have two different organizational charters then? Could you show me where to find the one for the "political" (and kinder and gentler) Hamas?? And what a fine precedent you can cite with Sinn Fein in Ireland. And Israel can choose to give or withhold the money they've taken from the Palestians. Absolutely!! The can freeze the assets of any nation that is effectively at war with them. We've done it to Iran for more than 25 years. And I don't believe we should give it back until diplomatic relations are restored. And I make no apologies for being such a "hard@ss" about it.. Again.. I believe in the mantra.. "No better friend, no worse enemy".. And I think if more of us constantly hammered that message domestically, and internationally, and followed it up with material evidence, we'd generate far more respect from the world. Hawk
