Secretary Global-Test enables the savages (again)

Here's where a big chunk of you tax dollars are going to go:

Last weekend at a conference of donor nations held in Cairo, Egypt, to discuss rebuilding Gaza, following the latest exchange of rockets between Hamas and Israel, Secretary of State John Kerry pledged an additional $212 million in U.S. aid for the project, nearly doubling the total U.S. commitment (so far). The Palestinian Authority claims rebuilding could cost $4 billion.
The aid is promised before the terrorist war against Israel is over and without a promise by Hamas or the Palestinian Authority that there won't be future attacks against the Jewish state. In fact, if history is a guide -- and it is, though the State Department pays little attention to history -- after the rebuilding of Gaza, there is likely to be more war made against Israel. Previous aid, which was supposed to go for "infrastructure" and other nonmilitary purposes, was reportedly used instead to build tunnels stretching into Israel that Hamas planned to use for suicide bombers and other attacks. Only Israel's cross-border assault and targeting of the tunnels prevented the potential of mass Israeli casualties.
When discussing post-America's contribution to this folly, GT spoke of post-America's determination to continue pressing for negotiations.  About what and with whom?

This bunch?

Article 13 of the Hamas Charter says: "(Peace) initiatives, and so-called peaceful solutions and international conferences are in contradiction to the principles of the Islamic Resistance Movement. ... Those conferences are no more than a means to appoint the infidels as arbitrators in the lands of Islam. ... There is no solution for the Palestinian problem except by Jihad. The initiatives, proposals and international conferences are but a waste of time, an exercise in futility."
Article 11 reads: "The Islamic Resistance Movement believes that the land of Palestine has been an Islamic Waqf throughout the generations and until the Day of Resurrection, no one can renounce it or part of it, or abandon it or part of it."
Does anyone see any daylight for negotiations in these statements, or in the rest of the charter? 

And of course, you know the Iranian mullahs are watching and saying, "We like this guy's style the more we see of it."
