Just as a point of history, Hamas forced Fatah out.....They forced their leadership on the people

Hamas has been a big oppressor of the people, there are a couple of recent demonstrations they crushed quickly

Anyhoot, My opinion is the Palestinians are mere pawns in a game they have no control over but take the brunt of....Be it Israel attacking or Hamas stealing aid monies and hiding under soft targets like hospitals and all........

The youth may well grow up to hate both their old leaders and Israel.......

Calls for the implementation of the Cairo Declaration, including the formation of a unity government and the cessation of violence between Fatah and Hamas, were made in the Fatah–Hamas Mecca Agreement of 8 February 2007. The Hamas government was replaced on 17 March 2007 by a national unity government headed by Haniyeh comprising Hamas and Fatah ministers. In June 2007, Hamas fighters took control of the Gaza Strip and removed all Fatah officials.[35] President Abbas, on 14 June, declared a state of emergency, dismissed Haniyeh's national unity government and appointed an emergency government, and suspended articles of the Basic Law to circumvent the needed PNC approval.[36][37][38][39]

Hamas has been the de facto governing authority of the Gaza Strip since its takeover in June 2007.[40][41] Since then, it has fought several wars with Israel,[42] and the Palestinian Authority has been split into two polities, each seeing itself as the true representative of the Palestinian people – the Fatah-ruled Palestinian National Authority and the Hamas Government in Gaza.

(then if you want to go further the Palestinians are split in 2, the west bank Hezbollah and Gaza Hamas....Both Iranian proxies)

Can't help but think they need a third choice, but then again I think the same for us here at home ;)
