Khaled Meshaal, Hamas Leader

Obama’s election has been received extremely well by the majority of world leaders and institutions.

Latest events come to show that even terrorists groups like him more than they did President Bush; during his mandate, the United States have totally rejected the idea of keeping contact with the Islamic terrorist groups, and they did not seem willing to do so either.

In order to try to solve the political problems in the Middle East, Hamas have announced their availability to discuss with the President-elect Barack Obama.

Representatives of the Islamic movement have ensured that, as long as Obama will respect their rights and political convictions, they are willing to meet with him.

Obama has visited Israel this past July and has told Hamas leaders that the only way to have better relations with the US was to stop the acts of violence and officially recognize the existence of Israel as a separate state.
