Taking the Fun out of Funerals

While their “leaders” powwow in reinforced bunkers far from the fighting, it looks like the rank-and-file of Hamas and Fateh are still doing their usual negotiating in the streets of Gaza with bullets and roadside bombs:

A member of the Fatah-controlled Palestinian security forces was killed and four others were wounded Thursday, doctors and witnesses said, in the latest factional clashes in the Gaza Strip.

The shootout, which occurred on a major Gaza road, began when a group of security officers riding in a car on their way from the funeral of top Gaza security commander Nabil Hodhod clashed with members of the new militia.

So, when does Islamic Jihad start its own police force? And when does FOX get to ride along with these trigger-happy nutcases for an episode of COPS?

  1. It must have been the Zionists, Lair, because Haniyeh said that palestinian blood is holy. There is no civil war.

    These are not the droids you’re looking for.

  2. Now that Hamas is more of a threat to him than Israel, I wonder if Abbas will make the play for assistance to fight Hamas, beg for weapons, and then puss out again while ordering Al-Aqsa and Tanzim attacks on Israel.

    That is not so much a “puss out” as a modus operandi.

    Lets wish both Hamas and Fatah, and all of their allies in this Philistine civil war, the very best of luck.
