"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
Schooled President Barrack Obama"
Gary Bauer, Contributing Author: Hamas Responds While the American media have been berating Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for being an obstacle to peace in the Middle East, they have ignored comments from Israel's so-called "peace partner" -- the Hamas-led "unity government" that now runs the Palestinian National Authority.

In response to calls for the Palestinians to recognize Israel's right to exist and to guarantee her safety, Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said, "The American government has failed in the past, and will continue to fail in its attempt to convince Hamas to recognize the Israeli occupation." In addition, Hamas co-founder Mahmoud al-Zahar said, "[Obama] refers to the 1967 borders as sacred, but who says we accept them, and that we won't speak of the '48 lines?"

It is clear from these comments that Israelis do not have a "peace partner." They cannot negotiate with terrorists who are not interested in peace with Israel or even a piece of Israel. They want to "liberate" all of Israel from the "Zionist enemy." But don't take my word for it. Consider this statement from Yunis al-Astal, a Hamas lawmaker, promising a second Holocaust during a May 11th interview:

"The [Jews] are brought to droves to Palestine so that the Palestinians … will have the honor of annihilating the evil of this gang. …In just a few years all the Zionists and settlers will realize that their arrival in Palestine was for the purpose of the great massacre, but means of which Allah wants to relieve humanity of their evil."

The focus of this debate should not be on Israel's borders, but instead on why the Obama Administration refuses to obey the law. For obvious reasons, current law prohibits sending U.S. foreign aid to the Palestinian National Authority if the terrorist group Hamas is part of that government. Members of Congress and the media should demand that Obama stop sending your tax dollars to terrorists.
