SECRET?:

Hamas 'in contact' with EU and US (BBC, 12/14/04)

The political leader of the Palestinian militant group Hamas has said that it has had secret contacts with the United States and the European Union.

In an interview with the BBC's Newsnight programme, Khaled Meshal said the "EU continues to have contacts and communications with us".

He also claimed that Washington had had contact with his organisation in recent months.

How much more obvious could it be that Hamas wants in from the cold? Who would be surprised that they're contacting us and asking to be part of the peace process?
