Grex Agora56 Item 74: Hamas victory - Democracy "In-your-face"
Entered by sj2 on Fri Jan 27 12:13:57 UTC 2006:
So Bush and Co. wanted to spread democracy through the Middle east. Why
not? The second largest democracy in the world wanted other countries to
enjoy the fruits of a people based political system. But look what
happened. The Palestinian people gave a resounding victory to Hamas in
the recent elections. Bush, Israel and others promptly responded by
saying they won't negotiate with Hamas. So do we only like democracy if
it elects people we like? Is that what Bush and Co. are saying?
