Israel to Defend Hamas in West Bank!!!
Jerusalem Post ^ | Jun. 17, 2007 | Yaakov Katz

Israel will not stand idly by and allow Fatah to slaughter Hamas members in the West Bank like Hamas did to Fatah last week in the Gaza Strip, a high-ranking defense official said Saturday.

According to the official, Fatah was in the process of taking over Hamas installations and buildings throughout the West Bank in retaliation to Hamas's violent takeover last week of the Gaza Strip. In the meantime, the IDF said that the situation in the West Bank was relatively calm.

The quotes coming out of the Israel leadership have gone from shocking, to absurd, to down right funny (and I am laughing AT them and not with them).

This is the IDF’s chance to take them both out.

There should be no West bank and no Gaza

If the civilian Israeli Gov will not go along , form a new
Israeli Gov.

Come on IDF ! Do your thing....

It is possible they will assist whatever side happens to be losing at the moment. Keep this pot boiling until all the fighters are gone.

I didn’t know that Hamas was friendly to Israel.

Maybe Israel should demand the return of their kidnapped soldiers first and the end of rocket attacks on Israel before they consider defending Hamas? I mean — has Israel lost its mind?

This is brilliant, if Hamas does win they can be blamed within as Isreali sympathisers.

Sadly, the best solution is to let them kill each other, then kill whomever is left.

Then put Bibi in command, so he has cover when he gets blamed for it.

This will also confuse the heck out of the bbc.

They won’t know how to spin it.

Then both sides start murdering eachother thinking that they are really Jews in disguise.

Brilliant! Or Crazy it’s a much needed change from the status quo.

It isn’t.
The problem is that at this particular juncture in time, Israel is very much like the US.
Both nations suffer from the most incompetent and callow fools in charge of their government, who believe that saying something is the same as doing it, and that PR is a valid substitute for effective administration and honesty with the electorate.

Hopefully the criminally corrupt kakistocracy of Ehud Olmert, the current PM will fade into the sordid shadows of contemporary history and Bibi Netanyahu can restore the security and stability as well as the honor to the nation and the IDF.
