At first sight HAMAS rise to power is US diplomatic failure in the area of the Middle East. But if you attack the problem at the grass-roots, you will see it is US next tactical ploy, directed against not only Palestine's national autonomy, but also against Iran, announced its decision of support HAMAS radical leaders. Remember! When US press has publicly declared about the possibility of war against Iran, Washington has used democratic elections in Palestine as a tool of terrorists' coming to power. And now it becomes clear those, who will help and ‘sponsor’ the terrorist regime, will be blamed to be terrorists themselves. Thus, military conflict with Iran (that was the first country, extended recognition to new Palestine's leadership) becomes unavoidable for USA (that was the first country, declared the war on terrorism). So I fully support our Canadian government, that decided to consider the question of financial aid for Palestine, as the larger audience of countries that support new Palestine's government: so much the less for possibility of a new military conflict in the Middle East.
