The Washington Post reported that the US had spent $US2 million ($2.6 million) in recent weeks to promote the Palestinian Authority, and by extension Fatah, in a campaign that tried to keep US involvement hidden.

That was money well spent...

I have little idea of the likelihood of Hamas disarming, but it would be a great success if this did occur. Hopefully, the US continue their support of democracy by supporting Hamas in moving towards legitimacy (by disarming).

Pray for irony.
