1. Note, he is the partner of the "moderate" Mahmoud Abbas,
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (04.01.13)
with whom some good souls abroad want us, Jews, to deal, while either one of the two is ready to accept Israel's RIGHT to be, to exist as the SOVEREIGN NATION-STATE OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE on ANY parcel of land of the Jewish people's ancestral homeland.
2. Man...What a sham!
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (04.01.13)
'Elected'?!2$ by who Did the people of Gaza have a say? From being flung out of Damascus..Pretty Boy Mashaal and his entourage..his expensive suits, his millionaire lifestyle are now based in Gaza because no one else will have him And is there any wonder he does NOT want to see any change or normalising of relations with Israel...He and his twin Haniyeh...have got too cushy a life to want to change anything...Full dictatorship of Gaza, fabulous wealth,,,for them and their priveleged few whilst the rest of Gaza can rot As the word on the Gaza Street goes Ha MAS? The Farce!
3. When it comes to these people, elections are only for show

The person they want to be in charge will be the one in charge, no matter what. And you can be sure that the next closest candidate on the ballot didn't receive more than 1% of the total vote - that's what an "election" is to them.
4. They hold elections????

5. nation state of the Jewish people?
chris (munich) ,   Munich Germany   (04.01.13)
I don't remember the Jewish people ever being consulted on this. Remember how Apartheid South Africa tried, unsuccessfully, to claim the support of "white" people all over the world.
6. #4 Sure they do
A ,   Belgium   (04.01.13)
but if you vote for the wrong person, you may end up being thrown off the roof, or brutally murdered in some other way. That is called "democratic palestinian elections"
7. Elections
Get Real ,   UK   (04.01.13)
Based on those of their Syrian and Iranian paymasters? No point in having sham elections when you know the outcome so at least this saves time and costs of pretend elections.
8. #5 Chris of of course, Munich!!
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (04.02.13)
Look at this way. At least this time you can't fry 6 mil of us. Apartheid or not, we are far out of your reach now. Please try to get a new hobby. Happy Easter to you by the way!
