The Arab daily Al-Hayat on Tuesday quoted a senior Hamas official as saying that United States President-elect Barack Obama's advisors met with members of the Palestinian militant group before the U.S. presidential election.
Ahmed Yusuf, a political advisor to Hamas' Gaza leader Ismail Haniyeh, reportedly told the London-based paper that, "The connection was made via email and after that we met with them in Gaza."
Al-Hayat reported that Yusuf also said the relations were maintained after Obama's electoral victory last Tuesday. He said the president-elect's advisors requested that the relations be kept secret so as not to aid his rival, Senator John McCain.
During Obama's campaign, he pledged that his administration would only hold talks with Hamas if it renounced terrorism, recognized Israel's right to exist, and abided by past agreements.

get Obama on the record.....
This dude has already broken so many laws it’s not even funny.
has anyone noticed that most of the info about obama comes from overseas and not our media.?
Will our media follow this up and will the Jewish folk actually look at this instead of keeping their blinkers on?
Will questions be asked as to why this report came out and why they felt to need terrorists?
I await with bated breath
Hamma probably contributed millions of bucks to the Obama campaign through the untraceable way the Obama camp tracked credit card contributions. I would bet there were about $100 million in illegal foreign contributions mostly originating from terrorist countries.
so obama will meet with these murderers, and all he says is that they have to say a few words and then that is that for obama.
We all know this but will the public know this from our biased disgusting unprofessional media
Don’t confuse JINOs with actual Jews.
Exactly. I'm waiting for the day when the stupid sheeple who voted B. Hussein Obama into office as the Leader of the Free World realize just what they did to our beloved country.
Hope it doesn't take another 9/11 to wake these idiots up...
Who knows what Obama promised or told them
He probably doesn’t even remember himself
Lot of left wingers and muslims going to be Poed at this fool if they believed anything he said
correct it should have read most Jewish folk who voted fro obama and wo donated money
And, my proudness of our new president grows larger still. PA UKE!!
I fear even THAT won't do it anymore.
Hussein was only elected a week ago and already the stories come out about shady dealings and leaks. Man! This is going to be a lllooonnnggg 4 years.
Obama voters are the electoral equivalent of the O.J. Jury. Only a few thousand orders of magnitude worse.
Damn idiots.
His past(danger)
Well, this list may be a little dated, but #12 on this list of Designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations is HAMAS (Islamic Resistance Movement.

One wonders if the prohibition against providing “expert advice” includes political and lobbying advice. I’m sure there was some “specialized knowledge” shared.
Now I heard BHO say one time he started smoking again during the election but nothing else.
The media will stop at nothing to make their darling appear perfect to the world. As Chrissy Matthews stated, it his his job to make sure BHO is successful
I am laughing at the Jews who voted for Obama. What a bunch of jerks. I hope they are happy when Israel goes away because they will have blood on their hands. Over and over again throughout history...Jews bring it on themselves.
While I empathize with the plight of millions of Jews during WWII, there will be no additional empathy for a people who have obtained self determination and throw themselves over a cliff, anyway.
I’m sure he just wanted to send his thanks to the two Palestinian brothers for their generous illegal donation to his campaign.
Ping.
Out of the fullness of the heart the mouth speaks.
Sorry to be annoying.
It would be like holding up Harry Reid as an example of Mormons or
Clinton as a Baptist;
Biden and Pelosi, Kennedy, and John Kerry as examples of Roman Catholicism.
The JINOs that support Obama may be decendants of Abraham, but they reject Biblical Judaism -— indeed, any religion.
I fear even THAT won't do it anymore.
I agree. So many people have forgotten, even a couple of years after 9/11/01. Amazingly, many of these libs who voted Hussein into office live in NYC, not far from Ground Zero. I just don't get it...
Has his highness commented on this? It’s going to be most interesting to watch how he reacts to fellow international thugs.
You’re not laughing at Jews. You’re laughing at secular Marxists from Jewish lineage. No different than the secular Marxists from Catholic lineage who voted for a man who promised to force their hospitals to kill children or close their doors.
The real Jews, the ones who actually practice their faith and honor their Creator, are on the front lines of what’s to come. And there’s nothing to laugh at.
Another 9/11 will somehow be a continuation of the Bush conspirary which brought down the towers. I actually know someone who believes that!
Ping.
Thanks for the ping!

You can say the same thing about the CINOS (Christians in name only) who voted for 0.
What Whistling wrote was right on:
“The real Jews, the ones who actually practice their faith and honor their Creator, are on the front lines of what’s to come. And there’s nothing to laugh at.”
But, this is not about religion. The secular Jews have sold out the nation of Israel.
This is about supporting those who support the destruction of that nation. Do secular Jews not care about the nation of Israel?
Our marxist bastard "President-elect" is committing treason, is he not?
ML/NJ
Get ready for a LOT more of this.
Wouldn’t be funny if Persident Bush had Obama arrested and sent to GITMO for waterboarding?
Obama adviser denies Hamas meeting
The office of the President-elect Barack Obama on Tuesday denied a report by Arab sources which claimed that a secret meeting was held between Hamas and Obama’s aides in the Gaza Strip prior to the US general elections.
“This assertion is just plain false,” Obama’s Senior Foreign Policy Adviser Denis McDonough told The Jerusalem Post on Tuesday.
Earlier, Hamas political adviser Ahmad Yousef claimed on Tuesday morning that before the US general elections, a secret meeting was held between officials from the group and President-elect Barack Obama’s advisers in the Gaza Strip.
“We are maintaining contact with them”, said Yousef who disclosed no further information as to the nature of the meeting.
In an interview with the London-based Al Hayat newspaper, Yousef reportedly said that contact between Hamas and Obama’s advisers was first established over the Internet.
“We first made contact on the Internet and then met with some of them here in the Gaza Strip. They advised us not to reveal this information lest it influence the elections or become manipulated by [Republican candidate John] McCain's campaign”.
Yousef added that he personally had friendly relations with a few of Obama’s advisers whom he had met when he lived in the US.
“Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh will draft a congratulatory letter to Obama for his victory in the elections,” added Yousef.

George Kingfish Stevens?
not annoying at all
that is the beauty of the right, we will listen to others and not try to silence people by name calling or putting down
I agree on what you are getting at and I do not see how those groups could elect a man who wants abortion and homo’s to get married.
So why didn't Obama's "aides" leak information about this meeting and it's contents before the election?
So meeting with OUR President about OUR security is leakable info for the Obama camp ... yet our enemies secrets stay secrets?
We are so screwed.
Is that legal?
Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Either way, the Obama administration is going to be tested and pushed around. I don't think Chicago style politics is going to last too long on the world stage however.
Awww... come on. They’re just trying to figure out which bank account to deposit the money into. These things take a lot of coordination.
I wonder just how much money of ours he will give to Hamas and Hizbullah.
It truly is astonishing that this man with his past and connection can be where he is. We had a man who I might not have agreed with everything but he did serve his country and gave 5 years of his life to a man who has never done anything for this country and yet it is he who gets nominated by voter fraud, illegal money , millions I might add and the media who helped to tell lies, never reported on issues and who went so far out for obama is was cringe worthy to watch.
I would like to known why our party and McCain is not trying to stop this prepaid cards, illegal money and the media’s involvement
Why is not Bush telling the feds and the state dept to look into this.
All what will happen is that in 4 years we will face all this again unless the GOP gets some balls and stops it now.
Name names we were told . Then go for it name names in the media who did this, how much illegal money did Soros give, how much came from overseas.How many illegal votes were cast i our swing state? Just in GA over 100,000 voters casted duel votes in the FL and OH election, now imagine how many from the northeast voted in FL’s election with them using their getaway vacation addresses.
We have a right to know about our country.
Is this not good?
BO denies>
Hamas finds out that he is a total flake.
Great start.
President of Poland called a liar.
Hamas called a liar (which of course they are, but I doubt that they like BO saying so).
Insults Nancy R.
Makes President Bush mad by leaking personal conversation.
Off to a great start.
