EU officials holding talks with Hamas

One has to wonder what Washington’s reaction will be to any agreement the EU strike with Hamas.

According to the sources, the Hamas leaders urged the EU representatives to work to end the boycott of the Hamas government in the Gaza Strip, and to pressure Israel to reopen the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt.

“We hope these talks will be the first step toward ending the boycott of Hamas, which came to power in a free and democratic election,” the sources told the Post. “There is growing awareness among the Europeans of the fact that Hamas can’t be ignored as a major player in the Palestinian arena.”

For that matter, what will Israel’s response be?
