Palestinian Election Could Affect Israeli Election Outcome In March

Reader comment on item: Don't deal with terrorists

Submitted by AnneM (United States), Jan 25, 2006 at 09:33

The Palestinian election for a new government could very well end up affecting the outcome of the next Isreali elections, set for March of this year. What it all comes down to is that if the Hamas group wins seats in the new Palestinian government, then Israelis could very well give more support to those who will take a more hardline view towards the Palestinian government because of the presence of Hamas.
