When Democracy (TM) goes bad




















Hamas members celebrate their landslide victory over the Fateh party in Palestine, Ariel Sharon begins to rotate in his bed.


As it is, if the U.S. had sat down and tried to formulate a deliberate policy to undermine the credibility of any Palestinian party that promotes a negotiated end to the conflict with Israel – and this means essentially Fatah - it couldn’t have come up with anything more effective than the crooked mediation and the blind eye to Israeli expansionism that Republican and Democratic administrations alike have practised since the Madrid Conference.
