REUTERS: Rival Palestinian forces parade through Gaza
AKA: “Big Touble In Little Gaza”
Bearded young men armed with AK-47s and dressed in military fatigues, part of a new 3,000-strong Hamas-allied force, held ground on many streets, while a bolstered police force loyal to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas paraded nearby.
For residents of Gaza City, there was a mix of confusion and concern, with some unsure exactly which armed men were loyal to which faction, and whether the extra presence would mean greater security or an inevitable showdown between the groups.
“I wonder when the zero hour will come,” one passerby said as he watched the two forces manoeuvre in Gaza City.
Mind sharing some of that popcorn, Meryl?

It’s getting very hard to tell these folks apart. See Elder of Ziyon and the comments as you can’t even assume that the guys carrying the RPG’s are the “legitimate” members of the Hamas police force or the “illegitimate” ones. Heck, both groups seem to wear ski masks.

Why don’t we promise them 144 virgins or a couple of well trained hookers, their choice. Who are they gonna sue if they don’t get them? God?
