• Khaled Meshal says US 'not brave enough to do so openly' • Hamas leader praises Russian president for meeting him

The United States is sending a succession of envoys to engage with Hamas but lacks the bravery to talk to the Islamist movement openly, its leader, Khaled Meshal, said in an interview with the Guardian.

Meshal praised President Dmitry Medvedev of Russia for meeting him in Damascus and the Syrian president, Bashar al-Assad, for hosting the discussion 10 days ago. He told Medvedev that the US was also talking to him. "I thanked him for that meeting and told him the Americans contact us, but are not brave enough to do so openly," said Meshal. "I am confident that in the very near future, everyone will realise that they will have to deal with Hamas."

I think the US should have ambassadors meet openly with leaders of the Islamist movement. When I was in the service, they said we were ambassadors for our country.

Don’t worry, as soon as Obama gets off of one of his vacations he’ll gladly go to Hamas so he can bow deeply.

The current U.S. regime has sided with the enemies of freedom. November just can’t come soon enough. Americans have to stop this commie crap.

What do you want to bet Rahm stopped by to say “hi” because he just happened to be in the area??? Or would that be too noticeable? Maybe Obama should get some friends together to send aid via ships and contact them that way??? Oh, I forgot, they already tried that!!!
