Land of Make Believe: 'Hamas Is Not Getting Any of This Money'

For all the blather about how intelligent the left supposedly is and how Mrs. Clinton and Obama will be projecting smart power, is there anyone alive naive enough to think that by throwing billions at Gaza that Hamas is not going to get their hands on the money? Really, this just insults the intelligence of anyone with a functioning brain.

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in remarks prepared for delivery that urgent action was needed to turn the Gaza crisis "into an opportunity to move us closer to our shared goals."

She said the goal was to achieve a Palestinian state that would be "a responsible partner, is at peace with Israel and its Arab neighbors, and is accountable to its people."

Clinton plans to pledge $300 million for Gaza reconstruction and $600 million to support the Palestinian Authority's budget shortfalls, economic reforms and security and private sector projects run by the PA.

The West shuns Hamas because it refuses to recognize Israel, renounce violence and commit to interim peace deals with the Jewish state. U.S. State Department spokesman Robert Wood said the money earmarked to Gaza will be channeled through the United Nations and other organizations, but not Hamas.

"Hamas is not getting any of this money," Wood told reporters late on Sunday in Sharm El-Sheikh.

Of course we can trust Hamas to sit idly by while money pours into territory they control. And of course the UN would never secretly funnel money to them, right? Especially when they detest Israel and openly root for the terrorists.

It's like living in the alternate reality where Obama piles trillions upon trillions in spending on us and we're told there are no earmarks when 9000 of them have been identified. We're not supposed to believe what's clear as day right in front of us.

Instead, believe false words from proven liars.
