The Fall of the House of Yasser
[Jerusalem Post] Barry Rubin - Do you really believe that the Hamas coup is going to scare Fatah straight? I do believe Fatah is preferable to Hamas - though the gap is far narrower than many people think. But even if you want to believe that Mahmoud Abbas is some peace-loving good guy, he is weak, incompetent, has no following and no intention of really confronting the culture of terrorism and extremism his own group created and maintains. He will also never give up the demand that all Palestinians should be able to live in pre-1967 Israel which is a deeply personal belief of his.
