John Kirby? Would evidently seek to deal with the rise and rise of Hamas, through denial.
Unproductively and ineffectually so. For Palestine’s constituency declared their growing support for Hamas and her affiliated back in 2006 – at the last opportunity that arose for their ‘free-and-fair elect’ to be discussed.
And since 2006? Most census results that are freely available would indicate only a hardening of this view! Particularly among the more educated and the more youthful Palestinian ranks. This might displease John Kirby? So? We can consider him to be a poor listener?
