IDF: Battered Hamas turns to PA, Egypt in bid to renew truce
,,snip>>
Over the last few days, Hamas
leaders have sent messages to
both the Palestinian Authority
and Egypt in an effort to
revive the cease-fire. The
answers they have received
sound almost like Israel's
demands: First they must agree
to disarm, and then it will be
time to talk about a
cease-fire.
<<snip>>
But Abbas also has his own dilemma: Even if he
succeeds in besting Arafat, has the time come
for a frontal collision with Hamas? The IDF
continues to insist that is feasible, and that
Hamas would collapse under a direct assault
from the PA.

1. Yes!
A consensus of the rational ... humanity emerging from the final vestiges of the Dark Ages.

Thank you for sharing that article. It's a cruel world, but suffering can be tempered by identification with the other.

2. Poor hamas....
being in the crosshairs really sucks.

Now the heads of these "murder, inc." organizations
are going underground. Scared little weasels.
