House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) says the United States must look to Qatar, an ally of the terrorist group Hamas, for advice in resolving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

"And we have to confer with the Qataris, who have told me over and over again that Hamas is a humanitarian organization," she told CNN's "State of the Union" with Candy Crowley.

People can argue back and forth all they want about Israel but an organization that advocates the TOTAL destruction of Israel is in no way a Humanitarian organization.

If she really said that, and didn't immediately clarify that she disagreed, it really is time for the Jewish voting block to simply stop voting for democrats.

Eh, I despise Pelosi, but this sounds more like her putting pressure on Qatar to intervene.

I actually agree that it might be what she meant, but.....it wasn't the best wording. She should have tossed out a disclaimer that they didn't appear to be great humanitarians storing missiles in schools.

The list of total nutjob quacks the American people have voted into office and continue to do so is truly amazing.

Obama
Biden
Kerry
Pelosi
Reid
Landrieu
Feinstein

When will we learn that these people are completely out of touch with reality?

No, she's really good. The comments covered all bases while stating nothing. When Crowley tried to get her on record...she uttered a noise agreeing that someone else had uttered an opinion, then said nothing that could her in trouble. Pro.

So she's covered. What a "leader"

If she feels that way maybe she should visit with them sans bodyguards.

Perhaps but her wording was questionable and when Candy wanted her to elaborate she just blew it off with a subtle mmmhmmm.

Candy even threw her a lifeline and Pelosi still failed

I don't think Pelosi was personally calling Hamas a humanitarian organization. I'll give her that.

But like others have pointed out, she didn't take the opportunity Crowley gave her to clarify.

Those two things put together lead to ambiguity.

Humanitarian organizations don't use every penny they have to build terrorist infrastructure while their people live in poverty.

I watched the video and she didn't say anything wrong at all. I agree with her, we should be getting the Qataris involved in the process.

"Pelosi's Sources"= The entire nation of Qatar. Their are a lot of nations that don't consider Hamas a terrorist organization.

Also, What made you think it was a good idea to start a post with CNSNews.com as your source. They are about as right wing as they come. Their slogan is "The Right News. Right Now".

So Deltaland, What is wrong with her Statement?

Nothing. It's poorly worded and she failed to elaborate on the statement when Candy asked about it.

Any news source is better than MSNBC, CBS, CNN OR ABC.

Yes, she said plenty wrong, Hamas is a terrorist organization, and Qatar funds terrorist organizations around the world.

Why is it when terroist attacks Israel and they defend themselves all you idiots come out of the woodwork, but when Isis is murdering Christians around the middle east, when the Muslim Brotherhood was murdering Christians in Egypt, none if you azz0s said a word.


What U have discerned is thar the abortion lover, homosexual lover, and anti God people all hate Israel, FIR THE MOST PART, with modest acceptions.
