Who won?

The US and Israel wanted a democratic election.And so there was.But the pesky Palastinians voted for the wrong government.Instead of the corrupt Fatah getting in,as was expected.The unnegotiating Hamas won.Shit.Said the US.Shit.said the Israelis.But that did'nt matter Fatah went ahead and elected it's self to power.Things muddled on for a while.The mainstream media reported about it as if the legitimate government were Fatah..If we had all voted for Labour here and Heseltine had put himself in the chair we would have all been up in arms.And thats what Hamas have done.Taken back some of what is rightfully theirs.Still today the mainstream are reporting it like it's a coup by Hamas against Fatah.Never mentioning the fact that Hamas won the election fair and square.
