Fatah and Hamas dream of the same map

A Palestinian Civil War? - Jonathan D. Halevi

Palestinian unity was maintained as long as Israel's military ruled Gaza. Israel's disengagement from Gaza has led to a battle within the Palestinian leadership over the "prize" of representing the Palestinian people.

Israel's existential struggle with the Palestinian national movement will continue regardless of which Palestinian side overcomes the other.

While we all need to work for, and hope, that their shared dream of a world without Israel does not come to pass, we must remember, and remind them, that Iraq is a perfect of example, as is the recent fighting between the Fatah and Hamas, of what they will do if there were no common "enemy" to spew their venom upon.
