Eric ,   Tel Aviv & NYC   (05.15.14)
Hamas playing the same "but first" game on Abbas as he plays on Israel. Lets see where it gets all of them.
3. Laugh a minute
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (05.15.14)
What an overnight Metamorphosis of Haniyeh With his back to the wall and a complete disaster for Gaza...he turns his attentions to the PA an the West Bank And to do that? He instantly mutates from his holier than thou figure draped in Islamic Robes posing as the 'Prophet (or is it Profit) of Gaza to a besuited Technocrat embracing Democracy, Transparency and Good Government...all at the blink of the eye? If that isn't a Class Magician Act...I don't know what is..with Abbas his Number One Fan ..

5. Hamas majority Palestinian parlament?
Nora Tel Aviv   (05.15.14)
Who doesn`t know what it means. It means ....war. It means subsequent Israeli invasion of all the West Bank. It means UN`s severe reprimand to...Israel. It means back to square one: Conflict, conflict, conflict.
6. Negotiations?
Mark ,   London, UK   (05.15.14)
What is the point of negotiating with people who do not have the democratic support of their own people? How on earth can Abbas claim to represent the Palestinians when the current parliament (elected 2006) is dominated by Hamas? Having followed the press in UK for the last few months no one would guess that Abbas and his buddies lack democratic legitimacy.
7. LOL! "Democracy" Arab style!
Mira ,   Vienna   (05.15.14)
An illegitimate teror irganisatiosn needs the approval of an illegitimate "parliament" to get legitimation?? Joke of the year!
