Pro-Israel Lobby Throws Support Behind Fatah-Led Palestinian Cabinet

Pro-Israel lobbyists and legislators have become unexpected cheerleaders for the Palestinian leadership after the new Fatah-led Cabinet took action against Hamas. [...]

the American Israel Public Affairs Committee commended the new Palestinian government for “taking important steps needed for peace” and for breaking ties with Hamas, which now rules Gaza. [...]

Rep. Steve Israel, a New York Democrat, traveled to Ramallah to visit with the new Palestinian prime minister, Salam Fayyad. [...] “while in the past I did not want to see money go to a government headed by Hamas, I am now more willing to hear of aid for a government which excludes the Hamas.” [...]

The new attitude in Washington toward the Fatah-led Palestinian government comes against a backdrop of recent successes by Hamas in Gaza. Since Hamas took over Gaza, rocket firing toward Israel has decreased, internal fighting has stopped and a kidnapped BBC reporter was released with the help of Hamas.

For Fatah, in contrast, changes on the ground in the West Bank are, so far, few and less visible. [...]

Aipac stressed the need for the new Palestinian government to keep up the policy of rejecting Hamas and called on Arab countries to help Abbas by isolating Hamas both diplomatically and financially. [...]



Domanda della settimana: per quale motivo l'Aipac e un senatore che di cognome fa Israel sono contenti di dare soldi ad una fazione politica che ha messo fuori legge un'altra formazione politica che sta portando la pace all'interno e che da quando è la sola autorità a Gaza è riuscita a far diminuire i lanci di missili contro Israele?
