First of all hamas isnt taking over the west bank because israel pulls out of settlements. Thats nonsense. Not at all, most observer expect it, and decry throwing money at Abu Mazen as a future donation to Hamas. Fatah is not a poltiical party. It is a bunch of gangs and an unbelievably corrupt patronage system. It has shown that it is completely incapable of the slightest reform. It makes things easy for Hamas. And you know what, both olmert and abbas should accompany them on a visit to the muslim holy places in jerusalem. That would only kick off another riot with cries of "Jews are going to destroy the Haram al Sharif and that traitor Abbas is helping them!" Everything that happens in the mideast must catch you by surprise, you have no idea how anybody thinks.
