Palestinian Non-Civil War Watch - Kidnappings Resume
Usual warnings apply: more interested in killing Jews, not enough energy to conduct a civil war, etc. But since we know that most of you just ignore us when we insist that Fatah and Hamas will never go to full out war - and since we know it makes you happy to think they might start focusing on each other instead of Israeli schoolchildren... well, happy Friday:
Hamas operatives killed a wounded Fatah fighter in a gangland-style slaying early Friday, Fatah officials said, capping a night of factional clashes in which a Hamas militiaman died in a bomb attack and each side took captives. Fatah said a Hamas force firing rockets launched a predawn attack on the home of Nabil Jarjir, a member of the Fatah-affiliated Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigades in the northern Gaza Strip, wounding him. As neighbors were taking the injured man to hospital the Hamas raiders stopped the car and killed Jarjir with a shot to the head, Fatah said. Local Al-Aksa official Samih Madhoun vowed revenge. "Those who executed Jarjir will be punished," he said... A Hamas official, on condition of anonymity, said that during the night Fatah gunmen kidnapped seven Hamas members, while Hamas seized four Fatah members believed to be behind the roadside bombing. Fatah said six of its men had been snatched.
Obviously ready for their own state. Honestly, there's nothing these people need more right now than to be given money, weapons, and logistical training.
