Hamas: Abbas gave Obama 'detailed plan' on how to overthrow us in Gaza
Jerusalem Post ^ | Sunday, May 31, 2009 | Khaled Abu Toameh

Hamas claimed on Saturday that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, who visited Washington last week, presented US President Barack Obama with a "detailed plan" to overthrow the Islamic movement's government in the Gaza Strip. Hamas also accused Abbas's security forces of arresting 22 of its supporters in the West Bank over the weekend as part of a US-backed scheme designed to prevent the movement from extending its control beyond the Gaza Strip. The plan which Abbas presented to Obama calls for eliminating Hamas politically by pressuring the Europeans and Russia to boycott the movement, a Hamas official said, noting that Russian and European officials and diplomats had been holding meetings with Hamas representatives in the past few months. The official said that the plan also called for tightening the Israeli blockade on the Gaza Strip with the hope that such a move would prompt Palestinians there to revolt against the Hamas government. The collapse of the Hamas regime would be followed by the deployment of United Nations troops in the Gaza Strip, which would later be handed back to Abbas's security forces, the Hamas official added. He said that Abbas's ostensible plan also calls for waging a relentless war against Hamas's financial resources by closing down organizations that fund the movement and imprisoning individuals who carry out fund-raising on its behalf... The allegations came as Abbas briefed Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in Cairo on the outcome of his talks with Obama.

Hamas promises revenge after PA raid kills 6 in Kalkilya

Hamas vowed on Sunday to avenge the death of two of its members who were killed in Kalkilya by security forces loyal to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas.

The two, Muhammad Samman and Ahmed Yassin, were killed in a pre-dawn raid carried out by Abbas’s security forces on a building where they were hiding.

Three policemen and the owner of the building, Abdel Nasser Basha, were also killed in the raid, which was described as one of the bloodiest intra-Palestinian incidents in the West Bank in recent years.

The policemen killed in the raid were identified as Shaher Hanineh, Abdel Rahman Yassin and Hussam Abu al-Rakh.

The two Hamas fugitives were commanders of Hamas’s armed wing, Izaddin al-Kassam, in the northern West Bank. They were also wanted by Israel for their involvement in a series of terror attacks over the past few years.

Abbas praised his security forces for their role in killing the two men, saying the PA would use an iron fist against anyone who tampers with the interests of the Palestinians.

He accused Hamas of seeking to create a “state of confusion and instability” in the PA territories.

The two Hamas men were killed after a six-hour standoff with dozens of Palestinian policemen who had urged them, through loudspeakers and family members, to surrender, but to no avail.

“Who gave him the ‘detailed plan’ on how to destroy America?”
It would seem that the plan and the backers would be:
1) The Plan: William Ayes and his wife, Bernardine Dohrn,a fugitive from the FBI and the rest of the veterans of the Murder-Incorporated group, the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS)and its successor organizations, The Weather Underground.
2) The Means: George Soros; the Saudis; the PLO and its successor group, the Palestinian Authority and their silent partners.

Those plays are being called in from the sidelines.
