The Palestinians are now in open civil war because of the policies of Israel and the US. Starving sanctions has led to the breakdown of the Civil Service. Is this the best way to bring stability to the Middle East

Pretty well
The smug proclamation that war is hell demonstrates the moral vacuity of those who defend the so called War on Terror in the name of civilization and human decency. To see Israel as an innocent attempting to live peacefully in a neighbourhood of thugs requires intellectual dishonesty and to claim that the Israelis had their backs to the wall and were forced into the destruction, measured beyond all proportion, of property and human beings in Lebanon and Gaza requires the moral lassitude inherent in imperial civilization.
Hezbollah did not exist before the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon. The culprit then was the PLO, and then, as now, Israeli self-defence was the excuse behind a cynical attempt to destroy Palestinian nationalism and secure land for annexation in the West Bank.
Recently, there were two daring attacks against military targets and Israeli soldiers were captured by Hamas and Hezbollah. These attacks happened because Israel and its patron, The USA, refused to accept the results of the Palestinian election.
Of course, before Hamas was elected, there was simply no partner for peace. Translation: There is no Palestinian leadership that will accept the injustice the Israelis want to impose.

I think this is what Israel and US wanted the Palestinians to do...By cutting gall the funds,by cutting the Palestinians all the relations with the rest of the world,expecting them anytime to go against Hamas...'cos all this started the moment a "terrorist organization" was elected...US and Israel want democracy,but as long as it serves their interests...This civil war will bring something good in the Middle East,something good for Israel.no stability in the Middle east definitely serves Israel...
Unfortunately Palestinians are giving to Israel and US exactly what they wanted...

I don't think it is what they wanted at all. The Palestinians knew there would be problems if they elected Hamas into power. They brought this trouble on themselves. Israel and the US tried helping the Palestinians and the Palestinians voted for the opposition. They didn't want the foreign help. It was their own fault. Let them fight it out. It is their own problem. The Territories are no longer Israel's concern as long as they aren't killing innocent Israelis.

Hamas was given a chance to come to the table already set up, but they decided to throw out 40 years of peace negotiations.
Why don't you ask Hamas why they are doing this.
Israel give back the Gaza and look what happens. Arabs go across the border and kidnap then hold hostage.
Hamas is the trouble. The Palestinian President is the only voice of reason.

the U.S does not want stability in the middle east, they need someone to blame as terrorist, think about it, these are third world countries and there is a reason they are third world countries because they lack education but for some miraculous reason they were educated enough to pull off the greatest terrorist act in history by blowing up the twin towers, mmm.......?

Stability in the ME has nothing to do with USA. You need to realize that Shiite and Sunni Muslims are the cause of instability.

If we are it should not be because of the fact of Israel. I used to think of that a 2d civil conflict became not available; in spite of the undeniable fact that, my strategies have replaced. it quite is now lots extra probable than any time because of the fact the tip of the civil conflict because of the super branch between the main appropriate and left ideology. i don't think of it quite is probable yet available.

Well, unfortunately, until they can maintain peace between themselves, they need babysitters. Personally I would like my family to come back home, it's not a pointless war but it never had to happen in the first place. Blame Osama and Hussein not the USA.

Well, the Middle East would be very powerful if united, so they make them fight.

I think it's what the Palestinians wanted. They knew the aid would turn off if they elected Hamas. It was their decision and they made it.
