Hamas and Fatah terrorists continue to shoot, shell and kidnap each other, making mincemeat out of a declared ceasefire. Four deaths were reported by Tuesday afternoon. IDF sources: no civil war.
At least one unidentified Gaza Arab was killed Tuesday morning, when Palestinian Authority militiamen from the two competing factions waged a gun battle near the Shiba Hospital in Gaza City. Several people found themselves trapped inside a nearby mosque for fear of getting shot in the crossfire.
By later in the day, two more men - members of Fatah - had been killed, shortly after being kidnaped. Their bodies were found in the street. Hamas denied involvement.
The clashes involved the elite forces of PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas of Fatah and the well-trained and well-equipped Hamas terrorist militia. IDF sources said on Monday that several Hamas fighters are being trained in Iran.

Frankly, and not to be rude...but I would rather they killed each other, rather than us. I never did anything to them, neither did the people in the World Trade Center buildings.

I think if the world just lets the two side act like animals, that the general population will realize that they are terrorists. And get fed up and fight for a secular democracy that lets people of all faiths practice the way they want. But, there will be outside intervention not allowing the natural course to take place.
I read a quote the other day from a palestinian women: "Are we the brave heroes or are we the terrorists the media speaks of?"
it seems they might finally be asking the right questions, maybe there is hope.

The Arabs have,are and will make war on each other. There have been tribal wars since the beginning of civilization. Then the Jews relay made things worse by declaring themselves the "Chosen Ones". After fighting wars amongst/between the tribes and running from slavery with no land, they entered, occupied and killed and made war on the Canaanite/Palestinian land, saying that GOD gave/promised it to them.
My question is if God GAVE them land that belonged to someone else why the need for the wars? The Jews have been running, occupying and loosing other peoples land ever since.
Just like the Christians occupying and taking/discovering lands that belonged to people who lived there thousands of years before they arrived, killed and made war.
The pattern continues and will do so in the name of religion till foolish mankind learns how to become spiritual and at one with nature and fellow man world wide.

I think a better answer is whether or not the Arabs will ever stop making war on each other. The fact is, at least IMHO, that Arabs have been fighting each other for centuries and continue to do so down to this day. Isnt' the situation in Iraq essentially now a war amongst different Arab/Muslim factons? Wasn't the first Iraq war started because one Arab state ... Iraq ... invated another ... Kuwait? Aren't the Arab Turks ready to pounce on the Arab/Iraqi Kurds because they don't want them to gain an independent state?

It seems Abbas is getting what he deserves for not outlawing the Hamas when he could. The name of the hospital in Gaza is Shifa-The Shiba hospital is in Tel Ha-Shomer, not far from Tel Aviv.
