I blog recently about former president Jimmy Carter visiting the mid-east and holding talks with the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED Palestine political party Hamas. I was very critical of Israel and the US state departments not encouraging Carter. It's been only a few days and there is already the possibility of progress coming out. Hamas said they felt they could reach an agreement with exiled president Mahmoud Abbas, if the people of Palestine approved the result in a referendum. Hamas has stated that they might not accept the referendum if it doesn't meet demands they believe necessary, but the point is they are willing to compromise. This is something that would not have been brought to the attention of Israel or the US because their approach to Hamas is complete isolation, or complete retardation. Whatever you want to call it all sides need to be in talks to resolve this ongoing conflict, and not by sending messages attached to bombs!
