Fatah sent some of its goons to get Hamas’ attention again. At least this time they didn’t burn down the building.
RAMALLAH, West Bank — Dozens of Palestinian civil servants stormed a parliamentary session on Wednesday to demand long-overdue salaries, attacking Hamas lawmakers and forcing the parliament speaker to flee the building.
The demonstrators chanted slogans and banged on the door of the building before entering the hall. The angry crowd then pelted Hamas lawmakers with water bottles, tissue boxes and other small items. Some climbed onto the lawmakers’ desks.
“We are hungry. We are hungry,” the protesters screamed.
As the saying goes: I hope you both lose.
