Should we not be able to vote DEMOCRATICALLY for Hamas or Hezbollah? Ok, then I don't find your point valid. My reasoning is that any known terrorist organization, especially one that's armed and operating inside a legitimate nation, can not be a valid party in a democratic society. To die as a Persian or an Arab in defense of one's homeland and religion as ONE person is greater than your Western Nations can achieve with ALL their WARS and ALL their BOMBS. Funny, that's pretty much the way all those soldiers that died in both world wars and the wars that came after felt all the other times when western civilization was threatened. It all boils down to tenacity doesn't it.
