Fastest Civil War Evah!
The civil war in Palestine that the mainstream media has so far declined to name as such appears to be over--at least in Gaza. Reports indicate that Gaza has pretty much fallen to Hamas. Base10 is watching the news and while fighting is still going on in Gaza, it looks more like Fatah is consolidating in the West Bank. So much for the "unity" government.

The inference here is that Iran and Syria are funding and otherwise supporting Hamas in this takeover. It is striking how well organized this takeover was. Hamas systematically took over Fatah command posts in Gaza. This goes along with the resent car bomb assassination of Lebanese PM Walid Eido, a Druze lawmaker with strong anti-Syrian views. So Speaker Pelosi, should we still be talking to Syria?
