Hamas vs Fatah.

I've heard lots of Palestinians bemoan their existence throughout the decades. I'm sure the Israelis haven't been saints the entire time the Palestinians have sent waves of suicide bombers and formed an entire generation brainwashed on anything except raw hatred.

But one thing I always knew, when millions of oil money was being funneled to them, that the leaders were just pocketing the cash and fucking the common Palestinian, just like any good African dictator does. And when Yassar Arafat finally bit it, what a surprise, he had a couple hundred million stashed away. Add that to the pointless millions of dollars flushed down the toilet in military weapons and operations, and it's pretty clear the Arafat and the Palestinians at this point have themselves to blame for living in a crappy hunk of desert.

So it's appropriate that their f'ed-up society is now having democratic elections between Fatah, the corrupt thieves that just steal all the money, and Hamas, a bunch of thugs that undermine any attempts at security, society, or structure.

This "country" basically has one chance: let women run it. Muslims. Let women run them. Hah, oh yeah, that's right, they beleive in the most backward, warlike, mysogynistic, ignorant religion ever invented. Backward - just do a tour of muslim countries, warlike - man these guys love a war, either between themselves (Sunni and Shiite) or anything under the sun (Jews, us, Christians, evil toads) mysogynistic - see veils, summary executions of women, suppression of education, and ignorant - well, call me radical, but backward+warlike+mysogynistic == ignorant. Hey, thank's for the zero guys, but that was two millenia ago. What else have you invented while being at the crossroads of three continents? Not much else.

The Palestinians should be thanking their god every day they don't live in the darker ages of history, when any of the shit they pulled would have resulted in the Mongolians putting their entire population to the sword, just like they did to Baghdad.
