Hamas says Trust Us, Keep Sending the Cash

A political party which runs on the platform of annihalating its nearest neighbor has plenty of credibility when it says trust us, we will be honest and up front with your money. Yeah right, and I have a bridge I would like to sell you.

Hamas has asked the world not to cut off its supply ofcash to the Palestinian area. However, how can any country justify sending money to an organization that has sponsored numerous terrrosit activities as well as multiple bombings of innocent Israeli civilians?

Lets see, we have 100 million dollars in aide, should it go to our domestic schools in A merica, or to the organization that supports state run terrorism? Tough choice huh? I would hope that America, as well as other nations, make the right choice.

Can a leopard change his spots, I guess we will see. However, in the Middle East it is a rarity. I guess actions speak louder than words and right now Hamas is not even choosing the right words when it addresses this issue. The majority of Hamas politicans are attacking the message behind the ideal of financial aide for this area, and they are attacking vehemently.

So what do we do? How do we do it? A message must be sent and it must be reinforced by nations around the world. In no way, or reason, can any country justify supporting a terrorist organization in any aspect regardless of its political position.

Lets hope in one instance common sense will win out, any other decision would be utterly rediculous.
