Guns of Gaza Stay Loaded
(Guardian-UK) Conal Urquhart - Abu Thair, a leader of the Fatah-affiliated brigades in Gaza City, likes to appear with a masked group of gunmen to illustrate that while the guns of Gaza are silent, the magazines are loaded. It is a stance shared by all the Palestinian factions. Ghazi Hamed, a likely Hamas candidate in this summer's elections for the Palestinian legislative council, said he doubts the calm will result in a lasting peace and that "we will continue to prepare ourselves and develop weapons."
