1. Obvious conclusion: Hamas & Fatah are the same
lemar ,   uk   (10.03.07)
6 months or two years it is of no consequence. Fatah and Hamas will make peace and join together to attack Israel. Its so obvious only the deaf, dumb and blind would not see this. Its a pity this is exactly what Israel leaders are, deaf dumb and blind and also corrupt and naive for thinking ordinary people cant see through them.
2. Abbas didn't want to reach and agreement with Olmert!
redmiike ,   tel aviv and london   (10.03.07)
Hence the timing of this announcement. Apart from the fact that Abbas wouldn't be able to deliver on anything that he committed to I haven't read one thing about what he is committed to doing! Since most Israelis (and Ehud Barak) believe that closing off Gaza completely and getting rid of it is the only sane solution then the 'passage' that Abbas wants between Gaza and the West Bank is a dead issue. Why does he want this passage? Redrawing borders - Lieberman - no The right of return is not up for negotiation. Jerusalem - Shas! And now that Mazen wants to talk with Hamas the whole idea of negotiation just became totally meaningless!
3. Olmert, you can bite the dust now

4. Israel, I weep for thee!
(10.03.07)
Now all the money and arms that Olmert gave to Abbas (that wolf in sheep clothing) can officially be transfered to Hamas. This was all initially a ploy: a "good cops, bad cops" operation led by the Palestinian brothers for which this vacuous and pathetic leadership Israeli fell. Israel will never recover from the damage that this "gang of three stooges", Peres, Olmert and Livni is inflicting upon the Jewish nation. What took 2000 years to rebuilt is being dismantled in 2 years. Israel, I weep for thee!
5. 1967+6Mrefugees-Both Hamas&Abbas have same agenda-for now
Alan ,   SA   (10.03.07)
6. Here We Go Again
Bill Foonman ,   jacksonville, USA   (10.03.07)
The Palestinians have once again succeeded in deceiving themselves into thinking that they are deceiving everyone else. It was totally predictable. Arab extremists have time and again showed that they would rather die trying to destroy Israel than live with Jews in their midst. It's the only goal that can unite these dysfunctional misfits.
7. Abbas can't trust Hamas.
never ,   ever   (10.03.07)
8. Like any good couple
Obama ,   Washington DC   (10.03.07)
they'll kiss n make up and live to fight another day
9. #1 got it right.
Yakov ,   USA   (10.03.07)
Fatah & Hamas are two sides of the same coin. It's all a matter of degrees. And that's not by much. If they really wanted to work with Israel, Shalit and the other soldiers would be free and there would not be any more attacks on Sderot.
10. The big con
avi ,   gaza   (10.03.07)
Now that they've gotten millions from the US, EU and the stupid Olmert Gov't, They will re-unite and replenish their terrorist arsenal
11. #4 - We all saw it coming
Jake T ,   Alaska   (10.03.07)
True. All those American weapons will be used against the Jews. But who can argue with Israel's true master, G. W. Bush? They are the ones pushing for this "solution". And don't forget that the CIA is also training the future killers of Jews. Are there any doubts as to which side the US really is on?
12. #11&4 Neither one of you know the strength & power of Yud
Hay Vav Hay. Just ,   sit back & watch.!!!   (10.03.07)
