Now think of the dilemma that Hamas faces. They are basically organized as a militant group hell-bent on having Israel removed from the map, but now they are in a position where they have to govern something that is supposed to be a "nation" of some kind. Good luck with that, folks. I'm kind of surprised they didn't demand a recount in the aftermath of the election -- because they are in no position to govern anything with an attitude like theirs.

"We will gradually get all the laborers back [from Israel], after supplying them with job opportunities in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, where they will work in small and very small factories which will be independent of the Israeli enemy."

Hey Mr. Al-Zahar . . . Maybe you could answer a couple of questions for me: 1) what do you plan to make in these factories?; and 2) what kind of life are you folks going to have when you find that you can't compete with China, Bangladesh, etc. unless you pay yourselves 35 cents an hour?

Let me put it this way... it's a mess.
