Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood calls for 'day of rage'

63. The last I checked, the Republicans consistently engage in elections; win some and lose some.

The managed to lose the last two presidential elections, yet somehow managed not to institute a coup against Obama, militarily seize sovereign American territory, and prevent these Americans from ever challenging their rule by prohibiting subsequent elections. Conversely, although the Republicans control the House, neither President Obama nor the Democratically controlled Senate dissolved Congress and instituted permanent one party rule.

We manage these herculean democratic miracles every couple of years, as do most other free and democratic societies.

As to our claims about Gaza:

Hamas was democratically elected and received majority control of the entire Palestinian legislature. I think even you admit that Gaza certainly was included in Palestinian territories in 2006 and today. More importantly, the people of Gaza overwhelmingly voted for Hamas in the 2006 election.

True democratic rule was apparently unacceptable to both Hamas and Fatah, who subsequently seized and divided Gaza and the West Bank, respectively, and neither has permitted new elections, despite the fact that elections have been long overdue according to Palestinian law.
