Vote For Me! I'll Destroy Israel!

That this guy gets to vote for anything more than the color of his casket lining is a crying shame.

Mr. Comb-over is actually Hamas leader Mahmoud Zahar, who discounted Mahmoud Abbas' promise to continue peace talks with Israel after the election, even if Hamas gets into the PA government.

Here's JPost on Zahar's comments as he cast his ballot in the Palestine elections:
Hamas leader in Gaza, Mahmoud Zahar, insisted that the terrorist group would not change a single word of its charter, including the clause calling for Israel's destruction. He added that turning the movement into a political party did not prevent them from "playing the resistance game."
A "legitimized" Hamas, still firing rockets into Israel, still smuggling suicide bombers over the border, still calling for Israel's destruction, yet having a seat in the PA government -- not exactly good news for the peace process.

JPost reports the last round of polling showing that "Fatah would win the elections by a mere seven percent over Hamas - that margin had been steadily decreasing in recent months."

Let's hope the lesser of two evils pulls this one off.
