Hamas: Cheney's comment proves US biased in favor of 'occupation'

Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum said US Vice President Dick Cheney's comment according to which the US would not pressure Zionist regime into taking any steps that may threaten its security are "inciteful and completely biased in favor of the Israeli occupation".

He said the comment "confirms the United States is a partner to Israel in its war against our people and against the Gaza Strip".
