Hamas is claiming to have meet with US democratic party delegation:
(IsraelNN.com [1]) Unnamed sources in the Islamist Hamas terror organization, currently holding power in the Palestinian Authority, said today that a Hamas delegation met with senior members of the American Democratic party. According to the Hamas sources, the meeting took place in a third party country that is unwilling to be identified at this stage.
Hamas has by implication accused democrat officials of violating the Logan Act [2]:
Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
One, I call for the Thomas P. “Tip” O’Neill rule to be invoked. That this allegation must be investigated not because of any evidence but soley due the nature of the charges.
Two I call on democrat leaders like Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton to speak directly to these charges, under oath if need be, and to set the record straight. Hamas has accused the democrats of treason. The charge must be addressed.
