    Well, I think Hamas is the worst thing to happen to the Palestinians, so it's good news compared to what it COULD have been. In this kind of result, it is still not the best, but as the lesser of two evils, it is the preferred one.

    Fatah´s difference with Hamas is only in methods, not in goals. Both dream about destroying Israel, but Hamas insists on armed methods while Abbas says that first arabs must take from Israel all the can by tricks and lies, reduce Israel´s capacity to defend itself to minimum - and then strike.

    A pig and a swine is the same thing; the difference is only in the fat content.

    Israel has to look for a new excuse to avoid going into negotiations with the Palestinians.

    Maybe they announce building gigantic Jewish settlement project in the Palestinian territories to make it more difficult for them.
