Without noting Obama's denunciation of Hamas, Wash. Post reported many Israelis "turned off" because Hamas "expressed a preference for Obama"

SUMMARY: The Washington Post reported: "When a leader of Hamas, the Palestinian organization that the United States and Israel call a terrorist group, expressed a preference for Obama earlier this year, many Israelis were turned off even more." But the Post did not note that the Obama campaign reportedly responded: "Senator Obama has repeatedly rejected and denounced the actions of Hamas, a terrorist organization responsible for the deaths of many innocents, that is dedicated to Israel's destruction. As president, Obama will work with Israel to isolate terrorist groups like Hamas, target their resources, and support Israel's right and capability to defend itself from any attack."
