Like I said before, left to themselves, muslims will destroy each other.

"small, shadowy groups that are even more radical than Hamas"

That's pretty radical.

"a future Palestinian state"

I bet there's going to be trouble with that.

Looks like any good community of people or groups that don't like problems with-in. They police themselves. < :-)

Kinda funny that Hamas meets with a challenge from within. One day they'll have to change to fight against their own. They too will be fighting Taliban style rule. Too funny.

Fanaticism is corrosive. Hamas has sought to harness fanatacism for its own ends, but is impossible to control such a force for long; it will eventually consume them if they continune.

Wow. We had the PLO who became Fatah, then they started being pushed aside by the more radical Hamas, and now Hamas are fighting running battles against more radical groups. We West Bank is indeed going down the drain fast. All this rhetoric Hamas uses is coming back to haunt them. Never thought I'd be cheering for Hamas, but if someone doesn't keep some sort of control there, it will be even more chaotic.

But....but....but.....Al Queda exists to right the wrongs for people such as the Palestinians. That's what I'm being told all the time. Why aren't they being welcomed with open arms?
