« Hamas Can't Have a Ceasefire Yet | Main | ISIS Take Over Oil in Syria » Hamas Does Not Listen
By Micah Halpern
Friday July 18, 2914 I've Been Thinking: It should be abundantly clear that Hamas does not listen to any outsiders. Not Egypt, not Turkey, not Qatar. And it should be absolutely clear that Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has absolutely no influence over Hamas either. That was the case before the unity government and it is the case now with the conflict between Hamas and Israel. It should all be crystal clear. In many ways Abbas is happy that Hamas is being pounded by Israel. Destroying Hamas's leadership and organizational infrastructure allows Abbas to lead with fewer restrictions and hindrances in the West Bank. There is a small chance that if Hamas is weakened a scenario will emerge in which Gaza will toe the line with Abbas and again join the PA. It is only a small chance and it is very unlikely, but it is possible. Should it happen, it would require enormous PA police resources in order to bring Gaza under its wing and to keep Hamas under control. It would also mean dissolving the Hamas / Palestinian Authority unity government. Read my new book THUGS. It's easy. Just click.
