Bizarre Palestinian "Reconciliation Agreement" Highlights Deep Hamas-Fatah Hostility
[Ynet News] Guy Bechor - - Can you imagine a wedding where the bride and groom don't see each other? This is the Egyptian model for the "reconciliation agreement" between Fatah and Hamas. The Egyptian argument is that the Palestinians must join forces and form a unity government; after that, Obama will step in and force Israel to establish a Palestinian state. And from there Hamas and Fatah would be able to continue doing whatever they wish vis-a-vis Israel. Be wise, the Egyptians tell the Palestinians. If you make up, you'll be able to weaken Israel. If you'll continue to quarrel, Israel will defeat you. The Palestinians are aware that their conduct is boosting Israel. Yet mutual hatred and fear of each other are greater than their hostility to Israel.
