ところが、1月26日付、「Breitbart」(電子版)に掲載されたAPからの記事によれば、「アメリカはハマスとは外交を行わない」とブッシュが言っているとか。
彼は、「ハマスは暴力なしに中東の和平を実現できるパートナーではない。アメリカは、イスラエルの権利を無視するパレスチナ人のリーダーとは取引するつもりはない」と語ったらしい。
またライス国務長官もダボス会議で、「片足を政治に、もう一方の足をテロに突っ込んでいるものを認めることはできない」と語ったと伝えているが・・・(笑)。それはどこの国か!?

Bush Says U.S. Won't Deal With Hamas

WASHINGTON
President Bush said Thursday that Hamas cannot be partner for Middle East peacemaking without renouncing violence, and he reiterated that the United States will not deal with Palestinian leaders who do not recognize Israel's right to exist.
Bush urged Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas to remain in office after Wednesday's stunning Hamas victory over Abbas' Fatah faction in Palestinian elections.
ecretary of State Condoleezza Rice, also speaking Thursday said, "you cannot have one foot in politics and another in terror." Rice spoke to the World Economic Conference in Davos, Switzerland via a telephone hookup to the State Department. "Our position on Hamas has therefore not changed."
Rice spoke shortly after Palestinian voters rejected the longtime rule of the Fatah Party, throwing the future of Mideast peacemaking into question.
"Palestinian people have apparently voted for change, but we believe their aspirations for peace and a peaceful life remain unchanged," she said. Rice said those goals will require renunciation of violence and terrorism and acceptance of Israel's right to exist side-by-side with a Palestinian state.
"Anyone who wants to govern the Palestinian people and do so with the support of the international community has got to be committed to a two-state solution," Rice said. "You can't have a peace process if you're not committed to the right of your partner to exist."
She predicted that the world will "speak clearly" on those points over the next day or so, but did not outline just how the United States plans to proceed.
Hamas has taken responsibility for dozens of suicide attacks on Israel over the past five years, but has largely observed a cease-fire since the election of Fatah leader Mahmoud Abbas as Palestinian president last year.
"Hamas is a terrorist organization, which means they believe it is their right to murder women, children and innocent civilians to achieve their goals," said Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y. "It is unrealistic, unwise and even immoral to ask Israel to sit down with a government that contains people who have such beliefs. No other country would, why should Israel?"
The initial speculation Wednesday _ as Hamas ran neck-and-neck with Abbas' Fatah Party _ was that Hamas would steer clear of a post involving peacemaking efforts and would be consigned to domestic ministries such as education.
But Hamas' defeat of Fatah could change that calculation in a way that might put pressure on Washington to find a way to both uphold aversion to the militant group and also promote peacemaking.
For years, even though he was the unquestioned leader of the Palestinians, the United States declined to deal with _ or even have contact with _ Yasser Arafat.
Under U.S. pressure in the Reagan administration, Arafat made a statement renouncing terrorism, and the United States went on to deal with him in Mideast peace efforts.
But Bush, deciding that Arafat was corrupt and linked to persistent violence against Israel, cut him off, and did not invite him to the White House.
Rice is due to meet in London on Monday with U.N., Russian and European leaders as the so-called "Quartet" evaluates the results and tries to decide how to proceed with peacemaking efforts.
