Led by US President Barack Obama, the West has cast its lot with Hamas. It is not surprising that Obama is siding with Hamas. His close associates are leading members of the pro-Hamas Free Gaza outfit. ObamaÂ’s friends, former Weather Underground terrorists
Bernadine Dohrn and
William Ayres participated in a Free Gaza trip to Egypt in January. Their aim was to force the Egyptians to allow them into Gaza with 1,300 fellow Hamas supporters. Their mission was led by Code Pink leader and Obama fund-raiser
Jodie Evans. Another leading member of Free Gaza is
James Abourezk, a former US senator from South Dakota.
All of these people have open lines of communication not only to the Obama White House, but to Obama himself.
Obama has made his sympathy for the Muslim Brotherhood clear several times since entering office. The Muslim BrotherhoodÂ’s progeny include Hamas, al-Qaida and the Egyptian Islamic Jihad.
Last June, Obama infuriated the Egyptian government when he insisted on inviting leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood to attend his speech at Al Azhar University in Cairo. His administrationÂ’s decision to deport Hamas deserter and Israeli counterterror operative Mosab Hassan Yousef to the Palestinian Authority where he will be killed is the latest sign of its support for radical Islam.
Given ObamaÂ’s attitude toward jihadists and the radical leftists who support them,
his decision to support Hamas against Israel makes sense. What is alarming however is how leaders of the free world are now all siding with Hamas. That support has become ever more apparent since the MossadÂ’s alleged killing of Hamas terror master Mahmoud al-Mabhouh at his hotel in Dubai in January.
