PinocchioBama:”I suggested that we should talk to our enemies and not just our friends, including Iran, including Syria.” and “We must not negotiate with a terrorist group intent on Israel’s destruction. We should only sit down with Hamas if they renounce terrorism” Update: top Hamas political adviser Ahmed Yousef said the terrorist group supports Obama’s foreign policy vision.
Back in October, he said “I suggested that we should talk to our enemies and not just our friends, including Iran, including Syria.” Today, he appears to have changed his position, because he stated “:
“That’s why I have a fundamental difference with President Carter and disagree with his decision to meet with Hamas,” Obama said. “We must not negotiate with a terrorist group intent on Israel’s destruction. We should only sit down with Hamas if they renounce terrorism, recognize Israel’s right to exist and abide by past agreements.”
“Hamas is not a state. Hamas is a terrorist organization,” he said.
Allahpundit points out:
This is the same incoherent litmus test he mentioned a few days ago, transparently designed to let him to talk to Iran ” a sovereign state, after all, but otherwise guilty of the same sins he lists vis-a-vis Hamas ” while ignoring Hamas lest it put him on the wrong side of pro-Israel voters.
Obama getting slapped around for campaign finance fibs
He just took $125,000 from Jack Abramoff’s old firm, too.
William Teach asks “Didn’t Obama rail about him not taking money from lobbyists?”
Update:
While Sen. Barack Obama sought to improve his relationship with the Jewish community today by meeting with leaders Philadelphia, comments by a Hamas political adviser this weekend could potentially hurt the Democratic presidential candidate.
During an interview on WABC radio Sunday, top Hamas political adviser Ahmed Yousef said the terrorist group supports Obama’s foreign policy vision.
“We don’t mind–actually we like Mr. Obama. We hope he will (win) the election and I do believe he is like John Kennedy, great man with great principle, and he has a vision to change America to make it in a position to lead the world community but not with domination and arrogance,” Yousef said in response to a question about the group’s willingness to meet with either of the Democratic presidential candidates.
Good God!
