"I am not so sure that it is better to have these groups running the streets, masked, with guns rather than having them have to face voters and having to deliver."

FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel/Russian Jewry ping list.

US secretary of state says Hamas government may be preferable to group 'running the streets, masked, with guns'

I wonder how long until the St. Dept. expresses the same view about Al Qaeda?

Rice, speaking to a pro-democracy forum, made the point in arguing that that the United States should not retreat from its advocacy of democracy abroad when elections do not turn out well from the US point of view. Referring to Hamas, Rice said, "I am not so sure that it is better to have these groups running the streets, masked, with guns rather than having them have to face voters and having to deliver."
The journalist is trying hard to make Rice sound as if she endorsed a Hamas government; she didn't. What she actually said is that the US should pursue the goal of democracy even if the result is sometimes that parties like Hamas getting popularly elected. Part of what a democratic system is supposed to do is give everyone a stake in the process.

It's hard to believe people around here actually consider her a viable candidate for 2008. I can't see a Condi candidacy being anything more than a train wreck.

Bizarre. She has become albrightian. I would so love to have Bolton SecState instead of her. They should change their jobs.

She said what? I'd like to, but I don't think those were very smart things to say.

Sheesh!

Gee, Condi, wouldn't it be better to have the Democrats in power than taking to the streets, as many of them have threatened?

(The only way uber-Dems Lear and Vidal-see link-would take to the streets is if their limos broke down. I am not so sure about rank and file moonbats and terror symps, but I am willing to take the chance.)

Hamas are a terrorist organisation.

I would not have handed power to the IR effing A which was another.

They were a menace in the streets but we beat them by not spouting this sort of crud.

Condi has proven that she and this administration have been "turned" a long time ago.

I do not understand why conservatives in the GOP have been so blind to the perfidy and incompetence of Rice, which has been so evident for so long.

An elected Hamas government in the Palestinian territories may be preferable to the group operating outside the power structure and carrying out terrorist actions

Looks like Ynet is not so good with the English. "may be preferable" is not the same as saying "is preferable"

Perhaps they suffer from Clinonista whatizisitis?

I think Hamas is utterly despicable. At the same time, it may be preferable to have them in power. Now the rockets have a more definable sending address, all the better to faciltate returning to sender with bonus package attached.

Rice's two big policy disappointments have been "the Palestinian issue" and racial preferences. Otherwise she's soooo smart ... but on those two issues .. jeeze.

Yes, those Nazis were so much better once they gained power instead of just being a bunch of street thugs. /s

It seems that Condy never learned that once you have them in government, they are on the streets again.

Condy should sue her University and ask for the tuition back. Korbel who lectured her was a fraudster.
