>>There were a couple of solid political reasons for that Israeli line.<<

OK.That makes sense.

>>Well, if I were the Mossad, I would certainly be trying to assassinate somebody from Hamas and make them think Fatah had done it. Open warfare between Hamas and Fatah would suit Israel fine right now, and would disrupt Hamas' plan to attack Israel under the cover of Iraqi scuds and Hizbullah missiles.<<

That too makes sense.The " divide and conquer " routine.
The thing I would worry about here is a return to more attacks on Israel, with one side claiming the other did it to try to get Israel as their fighting force.

Don't know how well that would sit.
