Fatah is backed by Israel and the US to fail Hamas! Israel and the US want to acheive thru fatah what they could not acheive themselves against Hamas.

Give it up..nobodies listening,A H.

Why are the righteous EU and UN not condemning the "disproportionate" use of force in residential areas against "civilians?"

something...

Should I react with disgust or hope?

who fed Fatah some guns and $$$ that kept them occupied

Sorry, it's already in Abbas's Swiss Bank account.

I'm expecting Fatah to ask any day for Israel to help them in their fight with Hamas. Hotdamn'! Wouldn't that be a new one???

is fatah the new face of israeli occupation? these thugs are becoming pay-as-you-go mercenaries working for israel who pays them with Palestinian money...

Indeed, divide and rule, divide and conquer, this is a common strategy of all occupying powers. Dahlan is the israeli agent over there and he is deploying every effort to trigger a civil war, his masters (israelis) wish.

Not that it comes as any surprise - they can't even keep a ceasefire with each other so why would anyone believe they would keep a ceasefire with us?

....But as it turns out Olmert is nothing more than an agent of the ayatollahs. So I'm sorry, my dear frog, your theory is incorrect. Fatah just doesn't want to live under Hamas' version of shariah. But don't worry, Fatah still wants to kill the Jews too.

Why everybody surprise about palestinian infighting? Palestinian are arabs belonging to different muslims sect, clan and combat each other as they do in Lebanon, Pakistan, Syria, Marocco, Irak, Iran and so on.

are you blaming the jews and israel for what the palis hamas and fatah are dealing with now in gaza???? are you also blaming the jews for darfur?, the holy war in iraq?, the massacres in somalia by muslims?, etc.... etc.... oh yes, let's all blame the jews. the jooooooosssss! it is amazing how the survival and prosperity of such a tiny land as israel creates so much hate and animosity. i'd call it jealousy! yes, we live, survived and achieved sucess despite you all. and guess what. we are not going away so deal with it. you're french.....in your country it is not divide and conquer. it is more like give up and surrender. well guess what frenchman, you are dealing with jews and israelis and we DO NOT SURRENDER TO ANYONE. whatever happens now in gaza is because of the palis thirst for blood, dominance and who will get their hands on the eu and usa aid dollars. we in israel sit and shake our heads. yes, we gave abbas money.....the tax money owed to the palestinian population in gaza to put food on the table and money to support a more moderate government by fatah....maybe a mistake, but that's a matter of opinion here. the rfeasons there is an all out war there is because hamas wants no deals with israel, while abbas does.

This is no surpise. Its the history of the Arab/Muslim world for hundreds of years. They kill each other more than help each other. Israel has NOTHING to do with it. Arab dicators keep it under control, but rather than encouraging education and economic growth they encourage the hatred and just try to control it. Look at Lebanon, Iraq, Iraq vs Iran, Saudi Arabia, Syria. Their empire has fallen and they refuse to acknowledge that or move on. They live in a state of denial and lies. Japan is better than ever now. Germany rebuilt twice after world wars. Will the Arab world ever learn and improve themselves? So far the answer is no. I hope it changes in my lifetime.

An innocent Arab woman gets killed in a crossfire by Hamas or Fatah, and the Arab world yawns. Europe yawns. It doesn't even make news. Imagine the fury and the rage if Israel had been fighting terrorists and the woman had gotten shot. The Arab world, and Europe, and the UN, STINK of hypocrisy.
