Hamas boobytraps civilian homes, boobytraps dolls, fires missiles from schools, uses mosques as arsenals, and fires machine guns into a party of Gazan revelers playing music - and Obambi is going to talk to these blood hungry neanderthals? Strap yourself in, folks ...... this lefty maroon is going to get our asses kicked. Big time.
When Obambi was silent on Israel's self defense I thought it was a low, lefty way to play it. He waited. He waited until he erroneously thought Israel had fired on a school. Only then did the snake slither out with a statement about "the loss of civilian life in Gaza and in Israel being a source of deep concern" for him [note Gaza first]. The thing is, it was Hamas that bombed that school - and Hamas only targets civilian Jews. Jews put their own lives at risk to avoid civilian casualties. Did Obambi address that?
Obama camp 'prepared to talk to Hamas' Guardian (hat tip Kenneth)
Incoming administration will abandon Bush's isolation of Islamist group to initiate low-level diplomacy, say transition sources
The incoming Obama administration is prepared to abandon President Bush's doctrine of isolating Hamas by establishing a channel to the Islamist organisation, sources close to the transition team say.
The move to open contacts with Hamas - which could be intitiated through the US intelligence services - would represent a definitive break with the Bush presidency's ostracising of the group.
The Guardian has spoken to three people with knowledge of the discussions in the Obama camp.

ZOA: Why Is President-Elect Obama Refusing Israeli Briefings On Gaza?
We view this with some concern. It seems to signal a possible unwillingness to show some solidarity with Israel when it is in a struggle – not even with another state, but with recognized terrorists like Hamas. Could this presage any sort of shift away from closeness with Israel? We hope not. We urge President-elect Obama to simply support the position of U.S. President Bush & Secretary of State Rice by stating that Israel has a right to self-defense, to protect its citizens and to make it clear that, if not for the years of Hamas rocket attacks on Israel’s civilian population, there would be no Israeli military action.” January 6, 2009
