Hi Muslimkush,

Remember the USA and Israel has been dealing with the so-called "terrorists" i.e. the nicaragua contras , the Mujhahideen in Afghanistan and so on.

As per as dealing with non-democratic regimes are concerned remember the USA and the Israel has dealt with regimes like apartheid South Africa and Saddam Hussain. Rememebr an US president said the following about a latin american dictator

"We know that Somoza is a SOB but he is our SOB".

This refutes your point very clearly.

As per as Hamas and Hezbollah is concerned remember very prominent people in the current US administration is talking about a deal with the so-called "terrorists" in Hamas and Hezbollah. So the USA in near future is going to deal with them. Just wait till that time.

If you think otherwise , you are living in delusion.
