1. First there will be a new bloodbath between Fatah and Hamas
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (05.18.14)
2. How are the terrorists from going to meet up with
A ,   Belgium   (05.18.14)
their terrorist colleagues in arab occupied Judea and Samaria, and vice versa? Are they expecting to make a leasurely drive through Israel? I hope the IAF has swarms of drones just waiting to pick them off.
3. Have they asked the people?
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (05.18.14)
Will they ask the people,or is this simply a Fatah/Hamas stitch-up to divide the spoils of a petty fiefdom and the massive aid that it receives? THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
4. Israel not handing country to Pals so Pals looking elsewhere
Sam ,   Canada   (05.18.14)
The difference between Hamas and the PA is that the PA thinks it can destroy Israel through diplomacy and Hamas thinks it's a waste of time. After the latest talks, the PA sees that Israel is not going to hand over the country to them so they are looking elsewhere. Hamas methods are just another option for them. Any violence by them will be met with superior violence.Palestinians get a free ride from the Israeli far-left but that's about it.
5. Unity Palestinians Long Truce
Zechariah   (05.18.14)
A long truce is on offer along the current lines.With Megacities millions can live in limited areas as in Singapore But the PLO Fatah is in Unity with the pre1939 Blockers the Jewish Rescue from Genocide in Nazi Europe and Collaborators in the Genocide Paper of 1939.

7. Almost
Ed ,   USA   (05.18.14)
What almost happened was a reconciliation, announcement of acceptance of the terms of the Quartet, and a real chance for serious negotiations with Israel. Now, who knows what's next? Everything depends on what the next govt in Palestine says regarding past agreements, recognizing Israel, and renouncing violence. This is a game changer, either for good or for bad. Ironic that Netanyahu couldn't wait to find out what the results of a reconciliation would be before slamming it. A peace treaty without Hamas approving would be meaningless. Having a split Palestinian government was a reason not to have final status talks, and now that it's unified with Hamas that's a reason not to have final status talks. The smart way forward is for the Palestinians to form a new govt, replace Abbas with someone ready to work hard, and then accept the three conditions. Then all the world will watch Israel to see if it's serious. If only the Palestinians don't miss this opportunity also.
8. How many times has ....
ed stack ,   Jerusalem   (05.18.14)
How many times have we seen this announcement? How many times have they failed to deliver? 100% So I have to ask, why this is news? Why is it getting any coverage?
9. End of talks, end of the pals....
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (05.18.14)
HAMAS is charged with "Crimes against Humanity" at the Hague, I suppose now that the two are one, the PA is also now a 'partner in crime' officially (not that they were anything else but criminals.) and can also stand charges? Annex all the disputed areas and Repatriate ALL the vicious pals to Jordan. The pals DON"T belong in the Holy land, Israel.. G-ds only Chosen country. KEEP BUILDING!!!
10. PALI CONSENSUS OR POWER GRAB BY ONE SIDE?
stude ham   (05.18.14)
all with the consensus view of doing away with Israel... these palifools have yet to learn the full wrath of an angered Israel.
