<<All they can do is stop supporting the dictator and the Pals, culturally, seem unable to take even this last step. They kept supporting Arafat even after it became clear that his leadership was a disaster.>> Unfortunately they have nothing so support for Hamas is their only option at this point. Outside help (Arab and Western) financially and politically is their only salvation. The fact that Arafat is gone can only help. Don't you find it discouraging that this current administration has done little to further the resolution of this destabilizing conflict? If stabilizing the ME is their ultimate goal don't you think that the resolution of this conflict is an absolutely essential prologue?
