Palestinians to Lose Foreign Aid

U.S. to cut its aid unless Hamas recognizes Israel

Be careful what you wish for because you just might get it...

For years, the Palestinians have been talking down the U.S. and talking peace while blowing up buses because what they really want is the elimination of the state of Israel. Now, with the election of Hamas, it's time to put up or shut up because it's likely that they're not going to be able to have it both ways any more.

Putting Hamas in power has taken the cover off the facade they've been putting forward of wanting peace while uncontrollable terrorists take rogue action. Well, they're not rogues any more: Hamas is in control, and now they need to decide which way to go.

This is when having a President Bush in power is essential. He's got the backbone to say we're not going to fund terror and cut off their supply of foreign aid: a President Kerry never would have.

So it's time to decide Hamas: do you hate the Jews enough to starve your people? And if you do, why should anyone ever take your "grievances" seriously again?
