Not that I expect a Hamas "truce" to come to anything, but isn't it interesting that the al-Aqsa brigades (founded at the behest of and still controlled by Yasser Arafat) are currently being more obstructive than Hamas? Methinks Hamas sees an opportunity to shoulder aside the rais, leaving itself as the sole force leading the resistance to Israeli "occupation." Meanwhile, we're trying to bribe Lebanon to take care of Hezbollah. Which isn't a completely crazy idea, so long as Syria knows there are serious consequences to not playing along. |
