The two-state solution revised
As Khaled Abu Toameh explains, Hamas gets Gaza, Fatah gets the West Bank. Long story short: Hamas has routed Fatah in Gaza. Toameh begins his analysis with a powerful lead:
Jamal Abu Jadian, a top Fatah commander, fled his home in the northern Gaza Strip Tuesday evening dressed as a woman to avoid dozens of Hamas militiamen who had attacked it. He and several members of his family and bodyguards were lightly wounded.The battle between Fatah and Hamas strikes me as a bit like the Iran-Iraq war. It is a shame that they both can't lose.But when Abu Jadian arrived at a hospital a few hundred meters away from his house, he was discovered by a group of Hamas gunmen, who took turns shooting him in the head with automatic rifles.
"They literally blew his head off with more than 40 bullets," said a doctor at Kamal Udwan Hospital.
