Default Israeli election results

Quote:
After the exit polls were announced, chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erakat said he was surprised Israelis checked more doves than hawks on the ballot, and he likened his surprise to the confusion Israelis felt when Palestinians elected Hamas to lead them in January.

"Two months ago Palestinian voters managed to confuse and surprise Israelis," Erakat said. "Tonight, Israeli voters managed to confuse and surprise us."
Is it just me, or is he totally nuts? Israelis were surprised and confused because Hamas was elected. So they were confused because a bad thing happened. Hamas doesn't want peace, and israelis are concerned about it. How can he compare it to Israel electing a gov't that wants to give land to the Palis? Why are they shocked? Because it means they're going to get more land? I'm shocked that the stupid guy compares the two.

Quote:
He further expressed hope that Israel would abandon unilateralism and embrace peace negotiations with Palestinians.
Um... it's the Palis who don't want to negotiate, you know that, right?
