Never one to pass up a chance to validate and coo over a new thugocracy, Jimmy "Dhimmi" Carter was quick to declare the elections in the palestinian territories "completely honest, completely fair, completely safe and without violence." Perhaps they were from a cold procedural point of view.

Only time will tell of course, but I fear that these elections were a giant step backward for the residents of the palestinian territories and the world.
