Should The Elected Hamas Government Be Recognized?

Question

The Difference Between Democracy And Hypocrisy:

The U.S. and Europe decided, despite Israel’s opposition, to permit the Palestinian people to hold democratic elections. According to Jimmy Carter’s report in the “Herald Tribune”, the elections were “honest, fair, strongly contested, without violence and with the results accepted by winners and losers. Among the 62 elections that have been monitored by... the Carter Center, these are among the best in portraying the will of the people.”

Answer 1

i beleive it should be. america britian and israel need to reconize that people have diff cultures and diff views this is what is left of the palestinians land that was stolen from them. so if america is true to their word then they should have to reconize a democratic vote taken by the palestinian people. these three countries want to control the middle east. they did not do like in afghanistan and appoint a president. did u know the afghani president worked here in texas for bushes oil company? here had no political knowledge before hand. sorry to say it but in america if u are not with america u are against it and considered a terrorist. no matter what we try to say about freedom there is no such thing.

Answer 2

Stoner you are an idiot. Quit whining about the elections. If Democrats were smart enough to hit the right buttons and go to the polls, you wouldn't have a gripe? Did you even vote?

Sorry back to the original question.

The US will recognize the Government if they will do one thing. Recognize Israel and denounce violence against them. Its basically the same thing that was asked of past Pallestine governemnts. Although they supported terror against Israel and US under the surface, they didn't outwardly denounce Israel. If Osama Bin Laden's people were put into office and elected him PM, do you think we would recognize it? no. We will not recognize a terrorist regime. Lybia has finally figured that out and will not start reaping the benefits of a relationship with the US. If people will just keep to themselves and not blow others up, we will let them do just about what they want.

Today humanity is being challenged. Unthinkable atrocities take place on daily basis. There is an evil force at work that aims to destroy us. The agents of this evil respect nothing; not even the lives of children. Every day there are bombings, every day innocent people are targeted and murdered. It seems as if we are helpless. But we are not!

The ancient Chinese sage Sun Zi said, "Know your enemy and you won't be defeated". Do we know our enemy? If we don't, then we are doomed.

Terrorism is not an ideology, it is a tool; but the terrorists kill for an ideology. They call that ideology Islam.

The entire world, both Muslims and non-Muslims claim that the terrorists have hijacked "the religion of peace" and Islam does not condone violence.

Who is right? Do the terrorists understand Islam better, or do those who decry them? The answer to this question is the key to our victory, and failure to find that key will result in our loss and death will be upon us. The key is in the Quran and the history of Islam.

Those of us, who know Islam, know that the understanding of the terrorists of Islam is correct. They are doing nothing that their prophet did not do and did not encourage his followers to do. Murder, rape, assassination, beheading, massacre and sacrilege of the dead "to delight the hearts of the believers" were all practiced by Muhammad, were taught by him and were observed by Muslims throughout their history.

If truth has ever mattered, it matters most now! This is the time that we have to call a spade a spade. This is the time that we have to find the root of the problem and eradicate it. The root of Islamic terrorism is Islam. The proof of that is the Quran.

We are a group of ex-Muslims who have seen the face of the evil and have risen to warn the world. No matter how painful the truth may be, only truth can set us free. Why this much denial? Why so much obstinacy? How many more innocent lives should be lost before YOU open your eyes? A nuclear disaster is upon us. This will happen. It is not a question of "if" but "when". Oblivious of that, the world is digging its head deeper in the sand.

We urge the Muslims to leave Islam. Stop with excuses, justifications and rationalizations. Stop dividing mankind into "us" vs. "them" and Muslims vs. Kafirs. We are One people, One mankind! Muhammad was not a messenger of God. It is time that we end this insanity and face the truth. The terrorists take their moral support and the validation for their actions from you. Your very adherence to their cult of death is a nod of approval for their crimes against humanity.

We also urge the non-Muslims to stop being politically correct lest they hurt the sensitivities of the Muslims. To Hell with their sensitivities! Let us save their lives, and the lives of millions of innocent people.

Millions, if not billions of lives will be lost if we do nothing. Time is running out! "All it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing." Do something! Send this message to everyone in your address book and ask them to do the same. Defeat Islam and stop terrorism. This is your world, save it.

Answer 4

any fairly elected government should be recognized or its a slippery slope to get on otherwise. a country not recognizing anothers elected government is basically saying, we do not agree with your election results, which then begs the question, should people in other countries get to vote in other countries elections? why not, if we are not going to recognize some based on the results. voting and democracy is not based on how favorable the outcome is to other countries, and not recognizing an elected government is like raping the idea of being free to choose your own leaders and is no longer democracy.

Answer 5

Yes, any elected goverment should be recognized! We recognize our goverment even after Bush stole both elections!
