A SPLIT
IN HAMAS??
For several
months now, some have argued the possibility of a split in Hamas over the
reconciliation with Fatah was a just a show, but all indications are now
pointing to a real issue inside the Hamas camp.
Side Note: Once again, Qatar is right in the middle of the
interaction as
it continues to increase its status in the Middle
East .
Khaled
Meshal and Haniyeh would not let the
public know they were meeting to discuss the disagreement in the Hamas camp if
they didn't want to.
These
men are specialist at not letting the public know where they are and what they
are talking about.
For
this meeting to be out in the open, is a good indicator just how much Hamas
leadership is troubled by this split.
Meshal
and Abbas have hitched their horse to the Muslim Brotherhood leadership in Egypt .
Mahmoud
Al-Zahar and his faction of Hamas are still holding on to the Iranian supported
operation.
One
of the real issues here is purely a extension of Arab organized crime in
nature.
Mahmoud
Al- Zahar's group has a good thing going in Gaza and the money that is made on smuggling
has allowed he and his supporters to live the good life!
If
this "Reconciliation" deal goes through, the " new" leaders
in Gaza will
take away the honey hole!!!
Yep..
it's not always about religion or political ideology... most often it's based
on good old fashion corruption and greed..
Two
traits that are looked at as true skill crafts in the Middle
East .
If
the "buyout" for Al-Zahar is good, then Iran
will lose its last foothold in Gaza .
Take
a guess at what the Iranian counter offer might be?
What
I find fascinating, is the Israeli reaction to the whole issue of "
Reconciliation".
A
Palestinian Muslim Brotherhood movement.. after the demise of the hated and
labeled Hamas / Fatah movements, is something Israel is really worried about.
