Condi's Dangerous Fantasy
[New York Daily News] Editorial - Secretary of State Rice's peacemaking initiatives have once too many times now bordered on the absurdly naive, premised as they are on the supposition that Hamas might at some point decide to conduct itself in reasonably civilized fashion. This is a dreadful joke. Hamas will decide no such thing. Hamas will bomb and shoot and kidnap and slaughter. That is what Hamas does. Fundamentally, the secretary is pressing for a peace agreement when no one on the Palestinian side has both the interest and the capability of entering one. Rice should give it up.
