Fatah forces kill Hamas imam; as infighting continues, head of Egyptian delegation blames "satanic elements"

"He called on the factions to maintain unity and respect the truce agreement." Which one?

"Gunmen target Haniyeh’s home," by Ali Waked for YNet News:

Clashes re-erupted in Gaza early Monday when gunmen opened fire in the house of Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh of Hamas.
There were no immediate reports of casualties in the attack on Haniyeh’s house in the Shati refugee camp next to Gaza City. It was the first time in a month of infighting that Haniyeh was an apparent target, underlining an escalation in tactics by the warring sides.
At least three Palestinians were killed in gun battles between Fatah and Hamas combatants in the Gaza Strip Sunday.
Among the casualties was the imam of a Hamas-affiliated mosque, who was executed by Fatah gunmen.
Earlier Palestinian sources reported that a member of Fatah’s Force 17 plummeted to his death Sunday after being thrown by Hamas gunmen from the 15th floor of a Gaza City high-rise.
The Fatah man, Muhammad Sawirky, 25, was kidnapped along with another Force 17 member near one of the city’s mosques; his body was found several hours later with numerous signs of violence on it, according to medical sources.
The Fatah member’s death prompted clashes in different parts of the city; at least 11 people were injured.
Meanwhile, the Presidential Guard, which includes Force 17, accused Hamas of attacking and abusing its members and warned that such acts may result in an escalation of violence between the rival factions.
The Egyptian delegation to Gaza is attempting to calm the situation, with its head blaming “satanic elements” for fuelling the infighting in the Strip.
He called on the factions to maintain unity and respect the truce agreement.
Two Palestinians were killed and 40 others were injured in Hamas-Fatah clashes over the weekend.

...is this a "who is the most violent kid on the block" contest?.....

How do you feel when you read about the Fatah-Hamas warfare, a war over turf and power, with the Slow Jihadists eager to turn on the tap of the Infidel Jizyah (that "foreign aid") and willing to take their time in attacking Israel, and the truest of True Believers, the Fast Jihadists, unwilling to do so, being less worldly and less corrupt that the Slow Jihadists emblemized by the outwardly-generally-accepted-accounting-principles soft demeanor of that longtime Arafat collaborator, up to his neck in blood, Mahmoud Abbas?

Are you sorry? Do you wish it would end? Do you think this "chaos" is a "catastrophe" for Infidels, or something else? Isn't it, rather, a very useful Demonstrastion Project of a society, without a despot to reign it in, and to channel its aggression towad Infidels, on Islam?

Can you think of other places in the neighborhood where such an outcome might do more to further American, and Infidel interests, and provide another example of Muslim failure to compromise, Muslim aggression, Muslim violence, provide an even bigger Demonstration Project, particularly for those in Western Europe now waking from their deep sleep of unreason and evasion?

If you can think of one, please write the name of that place on a postcard, and send it to President George Bush, The White House, Washington, D. C. Just write on it: "After reading, pease forward to Very Big Grand Strategy Office in the Pentagon."

Keep those cards coming in.

Eventually even those terminally confused in Washington will begin to get the idea.

With the hero's welcome George just received in Albania, I'm thinking that the Jizyah levels are about to go up.

There will be conflict between Islam and non-Islam

There will be conflict between secular warlords and imams wanting to rule

There will be conflict between Shiite and Sunni, and between various schools of teaching.

It's like the theme from the movie "Highlander": "In the end, there can be only one"

The reason for this is power. Whoever is in change has the power. He's in control of the fighters to impose his will, and he's in charge of how the zakat and jizya funds get distributed. If the whole world converted to Islam today, tomorrow would be civil war between various factions fighting for control

Never thought I'd agree with an Egyptian delegation, but it's comments that it is "blaming 'satanic elements' for fuelling the infighting in the Strip," alas...a shining single sliver of truth spoken by a Muslim....wow, rare occassion indeed!

I keep thinking of Forrest Gump and how he would see this...

Thug is as thug does comes to mind...

Question is, if it's Muslim against Muslim, then who is the real infidel in all of this now?

Frankly, I think we should fuel this fire on all sides and keep them busy. Better they take each other out than we be forced to do it and then get labeled as the oppressor.

I saw one of my brothers writing an epitaph on the bridge where American contractors were either working or taken in IRAQ. I kept thinking, why can't that country realize that we will leave when the citizenry simply stands up and takes over. Just for the record, I been there as a support troop.

I then realized how frightening a choice that could seem. Do you remember the East Berlin fears of letting capitalism in? I think it's the same issue, but the country is rife with greed and the majority of the power brokers do not have it in their conscience or heart to to take the lead. They are squandering the opportunity that it took Red American blood and guts to give them. Let's go home boys, there is no helping the blind see...

But what do I know...

this is what Islam leads to: extreme egotism. the root cause of the unhappiness of the arabs of Gaza is what they've been taught is their salvation.

The peace and brotherhood that is Palastine.

Can we hear about a new 3 State plan?

"Fatah forces kill Hamas imam"


...more like, Fatah killed Hamas military field general...

At least three Palestinians were killed in gun battles between Fatah and Hamas combatants in the Gaza Strip Sunday.

Good.

Among the casualties was the imam of a Hamas-affiliated mosque, who was executed by Fatah gunmen.

Even better. Bound to cause acts of revenge.

Earlier Palestinian sources reported that a member of Fatah’s Force 17 plummeted to his death Sunday after being thrown by Hamas gunmen from the 15th floor of a Gaza City high-rise.

Good.

The Fatah member’s death prompted clashes in different parts of the city; at least 11 people were injured.

11? Not bad.

Two Palestinians were killed and 40 others were injured in Hamas-Fatah clashes over the weekend

So what is that in total? 6 dead and 51 injured?
Good.

So Hamas is better motivated and Fatah is better organized.

Agree they are both despicable killers, so they best by killing each other.

But to expand such a hope to the whole MidEast would be suicidal for the West: our peace and prosperity is contingent on the Pax Americana which could become in jeopardy with whole scale warfare.

"satanic elements"?

Finally they [unconsciously] admit Islam's true nature.

Producing a sub-human immorality that poses as "divine" morality.

As if a Creator would need maniacs cutting off people's heads in order to promote a "compassionate" faith.

Islam: the devil [Allah] made me do it 'religion'.

'Satanic elements' of course they are they are Muslims aren't they and 'Old Mo' was just Satans mouthpiece

Egyption delegation to Gaza! Blaming satanic elements?! Ah, I can make that arguement anywhere!"" The devil made me do it! F that! You can see they are into this satanic thing? They believe in it?!
Because of my questions in life they checked me out- by asking me questions! Stupid ones if you ask me! Do you believe in God? "YES", do you believe in the devil "NO".., How can you say you believe in God and not the devil? heh!"
I said, "I believe there is a devil but I do NOT
beleive in him!" ha! He said, peculiar. "I only believe in one thing God."

Debbie Schlussel calls it the Pali equivalent of Alien vs Predator. May both sides win.

Fatah and Hamas certainly messed up the Palestinians arguments-war, with Israel. Hamas for government is like militias here for government! Condi certainly should have known this. What could they possibly bring to the table?
They should have taken that 90% Israel offered them along....time ago!

God is Love 1 John 4:8. Jesus Son of God an expression of His Love for us! A New Life the Second Humanity=Life restored! Between God and man and our redemption with the Father that we may Love one Another and do His Will.

It's that cheeky iblis. Iblis is a monkey on the muhammadan's back. Monkey see, monkey do.

I am rooting for both sides in this conflict. Fair is fair, no?

"How do you feel when you read about the Fatah-Hamas warfare"

When they start shooting at each other, I feel like donning a dunce cap and standing between them, with a target on both my front and back.
....GWB

’head of Egyptian delegation blames "satanic elements"

Yeah, like Satan put those “satanic versus” into Muhammad’s mouth and into the Koran about al-Lat and al-Uzza and Manat, presumably while Allah wasn’t looking. What a horrible joke this idiotic sucker-cult is.

Maybe all those violent, hate-the-infidel and beat-your-disobedient-women versus were insertions by Satan made to corrupt the Muslims and make them into the demonic forces of destruction they historically have and continue to be.

and who said the US was wrong giving guns to Abbas and his boys. just sit back and watch the fireworks.
That is what happens when you have a satanic death cult at work, they just have to kill even their own.
Islam the cult that keeps on giving death.

Among the casualties was the imam of a Hamas-affiliated mosque, who was executed by Fatah gunmen.

But but..... president, close friend of Sahdi Arabia, the custodions of Islam; president hismslf has an adopted "muslim brother" Bandar-Bush (never mind Bandar funnelled billions of pounds of kick-backs from arms deals with Saudi Arabia), tell me "Islam is peaceful". So something must be seriosusly wrong with Hamas-affiliated mosque, else Islam, peaceful that it is, would not burst into unconotrolled, mindless and blood-thirsty violence. So, I am confused.. Is Hamas un-Islamic? or is Hamas-affiliated mosque, a blasphemous mosque? or was the imam of Hamas-affiliated mosque not a "true muslim"? or was this imam not "innocent" (because aftr all, killing one innocent is like killing humanity)? Or is Hamas not as peaceful as "true muslims" should be? Or is Fatah the "enemy of Islam"? OR is Islam just a fox in sheep's cloathing? Or is president lying about Islam (remember WMDs?)? Or all of the above?

I am so confused...........

lol @ topic

I wish them a long and healthy war, too.

Never thought I'd agree with an Egyptian delegation, but it's comments that it is "blaming 'satanic elements' for fuelling the infighting in the Strip," alas...a shining single sliver of truth spoken by a Muslim....wow, rare occassion indeed!

Unfortunately, 'satanic elements' is Islamospeak for 'Zionists'. So it isn't the 'shining single sliver of truth spoken by a Muslim' which you took it to believe.

Clearly, the Joooz did all this.
