Unintentionally hilarious headline of the day is this from VOA: Israelis, Palestinians Shocked by Hamas Landslide. You would think it must include interviews with man-in-the-street Palestinians, saying something like, “Sure, I voted for Hamas because I like their policies about killing the Jews, destroying Israel and establishing an Islamic theocracy in its place. But I always thought I was the only one!” Such quotes are not to be found, however.

More presumably unintentional yuks at the end of the piece:

Israel is also scheduled to transfer customs revenue to the Palestinian Authority that it collects on behalf of Palestinians. On Friday a senior Israeli finance official voiced concerns about how to transfer funds to any future government that calls for Israel’s destruction. Palestinian officials say if they do not receive the funds soon they will not be able to pay an estimated 135-thousand Palestinian civil servants. And that, one Palestinian official warned, would be a recipe for violence.

I’d like to know what doesn’t constitute a “recipe for violence” on any given day with these types. That would be informative.
