Gaza continues its inevitable descent into Hell,
Among yesterday’s dead was a 14-year-old boy and three women, all killed in a Hamas attack on a Fatah security officer’s home.
“They’re firing at us, firing RPGs, firing mortars. We’re not Jews,” the brother of Jamal Abu Jediyan, a Fatah commander, pleaded during a live telephone conversation with a Palestinian radio station.
Minutes later both men were dragged into the streets and riddled with bullets. the telegraph
Presumably it would be a-ok to attack a house with women and children in it if they were Jews. Nice to see the disgusting man shot dead, too bad it was by people equally as disgusting.
No question, Israel was right to withdraw and absolutely right to put a wall around Gaza. Unfortunately it keep good people trapped in with the thugs, gunmen and terrorists but they have the power to force change. To date they have not used it.

Hamas and Fatah are shooting it out in Gaza. It is pretty clear that Hamas is willing to put on a full scale civil war. Fatah has its wide boys ready to shoot back.
At this point about the only realistic solution would be for Egypt to send in a several thousand strong security force. It would be madness for Israel to intervene and it would be utterly insane for the US to do a thing.
Peaceful Palis, and they certainly represent a tragically enabling majority, are trying to flee. The clerics are having none of it. This from Captain Ed,
The rising number of Palestinians seeking to emigrate has prompted Jerusalem’s Mufti, Mohammad Ahmed Hussein, to issue a fatwa prohibiting Palestinians from leaving Palestinian territories.
“Immigration from this blessed land is not permissible according to Islamic law,” said the religious edict. “People who live in this land should not leave it for the invaders and occupiers.”
That’s a sure sign of desperation. Imams now forbid movement of Palestinians even to other “blessed” lands, such as Muslim Egypt. Why? They know that if the Palestinians leave Gaza in droves, it will leave terrorist groups like Hamas, Fatah, and Islamic Jihad much more exposed to Israeli strikes.
The imams want their congregations to continue their roles as human shields so that terrorists can conduct holy wars. Isn’t that special? No wonder they call Islam the Religion of Peace. captains quarters
