The Palestinian civil war continues. Gaza Blast Stokes Hamas-Fatah Tensions. They've taken to blowing each other up. That Fatah is the "moderate" voice of this group is somewhere between laughable and disturbing. When Krathammer first floated the idea of a wall I thought he was nuts. After some thought it seemed not only sensible, but inevitable. He also posited then that a Palestinian civil war would be the inevitable result. I didn't think so as the time or even after thinking about it, but he was right. This has been a simmering conflict with occasional boil overs. Only time will tell if one group thinks they have enough arms and support to make a push for complete control. If Iran starts to feel the pressure from the US enough, they'll likely let out the slack on Hamas' leash. Enough to cause more problems and let them spill over into Israel. They want Israel dragged into the conflict and want the US to take it's eye off the ball. Neither will happen but it's one of the few tricks they have up their sleeve.
