GAZA (Reuters) - Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's government accidentally paid salaries to almost half the members of rival Hamas's security force before noticing the error, officials said on Wednesday.

Accidentally? Riiiiiiight. Why do we give more and more $$$$ to Palestinians if the money (half of it) winds up with Hamas?

I work with several people that happens to. Or at least I think that should be the case.

Fatah and Hamas are bitter enemies, really, they just had a civil war, really. They must think we’re a bunch of idiots over here, well, maybe we are.

So Washington is now a Hamas supporter as well as a Fata supporter. Oh well, Muslim terrorists are all the same. Still aren’t we supposed to be at war with Muslim terrorists? I’m confused? Is everyone in Washington brain-dead?

Perhaps banks should freeze US assets until Washington stops funding terrorists?

I’ll say it again. Condi Rice is an incompetent ass who should have been fired on 9/12/2001.
