Not sure how that story slipped past the censors at Reverend Moon's UPI . . .

"The thinking on the part of some of the right-wing Israeli establishment was that Hamas and the others, if they gained control, would refuse to have any part of the peace process and would torpedo any agreements put in place,"

Almost correct, except that this goal of torpedoing the peace process is not a monopoly of the right-wingers in Israel. The Labor Party has been rejecting the PLO's olive branches since the moment they appeared (in 1976).
