Bildt knows what the Palestines voted for

Bildt Comments: Earthquake in Palestine: “But is must be recognized that the Hamas vote was less a vote for its Islamist social program, or for its refusal to recognize the reality of Israel, than a protest against a Fatah rule seen as inefficient and corrupt. Fatahs inability to secure order or to deliver result in the peace process undoubtedly played in, as did a reaction against the daily injustices of life under occupation.”

(från Bildt Comments.)

It is truly interesting to see how politicians and selfappointed experts have opinions about what the Hamas overwelming victory in the Palestine elections really means. It is also interesting to see if the Western world will except the Palestines votes or if they will – as some said in advance – only respect their votes if they vote “right”.

The quote above from Mr Bildts shows that at least he concider himself in the position to judge. He has a ready opinion about what they really voted for/against, evidently not for Hamas political agenda but just against Fatahs failure.
