Turning Over a New Leaf Watch

What's the quickest way to get integrated into the new Palestinian government working to make peace with Israel? Threaten to kill Israelis!

Members of the armed wing of Hamas, Izzadin Kassam, have expressed their readiness to join the Palestinian Authority's security forces, Palestinian legislator Abdel Fattah Hamayel revealed over the weekend. This is the first time the PA has declared its intention to recruit Hamas activists to its security forces.
Hamas and Islamic Jihad leaders warned that their groups would resume their attacks on Israel unless all security prisoners were released. The threats were issued during demonstrations in the Gaza Strip in support of Palestinian prisoners.


UPDATE: Of course, there's an argument to be made that they're just emulating what their already-integrated Fatah friends do.
