Obama administration’s secret relations with Hamas

by Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury

(July 07, Dhaka, Sri Lanka Guardian) President Barack Hussain Obama’s administration in Washington is secretly establishing relations with bloodthirsty genocidal barbarian mega-terrorist group Hamas.

A senior Hamas figure said on June 25, 2010 that official and unofficial US sources have asked the Islamist group to refrain from making any statements regarding contacts with Washington, this following report that a senior American official is due to arrive in an Arab country in the coming days to handover a letter from the Obama Administration.

The Hamas figure told the London-based Al-Quds Al-Arabi newspaper that the Americans fear discussing the talks publicly would "rouse the Jewish lobby and other pressure groups in the US and cause them to pressure the administration to suspend all talks with Hamas."

The Hamas figure, who is close to Ismail Haniyeh, the prime minister of the government in Gaza, added, "This is a sensitive subject. The Americans don't want anyone to comment on it because this would catch the attention of pressure groups [in the US] and cause problems."

He said Hamas' exiled leadership in Damascus is overseeing the contacts behind closed doors.

On Wednesday a Washington-based Arabic newspaper quoted a senior official as saying that an American envoy is scheduled to meet with Hamas representatives in an Arab country and hand them a letter from the Obama Administration.

According to the report, the official said Washington has no choice but to work with Hamas due to its influence in the Arab and Islamic world.

With such secretly growing relations between administrations of Barack Obama and Ismail Haniyeh, there is growing speculations in the Muslim world that, Washington may soon exclude Hamas from its terrorist list.

Meanwhile, Arab League chief Amr Moussa held talks with Hamas kingpin Ismail Haniyeh, who called the visit “historic”. Moussa is the first senior Arab political figure to visit the territory since Hamas seized control from Mahmoud Abbas in 2007.

While the news of Barack Hussain Obama’s dubious activities in establishing relations with Hamas or even attempting to remove it from the terrorist list is spreading everywhere in the world, his [Obama] administration went to court to try to deport an anti-terrorist hero, Mosab Hassan Yousef, who saved hundreds of lives from terror attacks while risking his own!

Yousef is the son of a founder of Hamas, a terrorist organization that has killed scores of Americans, Israelis and Palestinians. He grew up hating Israel, even throwing rocks at Jewish homeowners. At 18, he was beaten by Israeli soldiers.

Things changed in 1996, after his conviction for buying three illegal guns. Serving 16 months in an Israeli prison, he was impressed with the "humanity" of his Israeli interrogators. He began to see the darker side of Hamas, which his father had shielded him from. From his fellow inmates, he learned that Hamas tortures and kills its own members. While saving the lives of others, he rethought his own. Raised a strict Muslim, he secretly began to study Christianity in 1999. He was baptized in 2005. His family publicly disowned him; Hamas has privately promised retribution.

Yousef's attorney, Steven A. Seick, says that Kerri Calcador, the senior DHS attorney targeting Yousef, told him she'd never agree to asylum, and would appeal if the judge grants it. She said that she had "marching orders from DC."

In one hand, Obama is trying to have hidden relations with Hamas and in another hand doing everything for expelling Mosab Hassan Yousef will surely put the Americans as well the peace loving masses in the world into serious concern. If finally he will remove Hamas from the terrorist list, it will not only make this notorious terror outfit delighted, but will also encourage other Islamist militancy groups in the world in getting more confident and fatal.
