Hamas slams Fatah:

The Fatah movement continues to give a factional, political and media cover to the killers. Hamas has therefore decided to suspend all talks with Fatah.

And Fatah slams Hamas:

Hamas does not want a government of national unity. It’s not possible to have a dialogue with killers.

UPDATE. Pakistan’s Daily News reports:

Six students were injured in a row between two student organisations, the Islami Jamiat-e-Talba and Pakhtoon Students Federation, at the Dawood Engineering College of Science and Technology …

On Saturday morning, the students fought over a poster urging students not to fight on campus. According to reports, the fight was over who would put up the poster first. And what started as an exchange of hot words snowballed into a full-fledged fistfight following which, the students hurled classroom furniture at each other.

UPDATE II. Rather than stop his own people killing each other, a Palestinian psychotic kills three Israelis.

    1. HAHAHAHAHHAHAHARHARHARHAHAHAHA!

      Gee, who’d a thought such a thing could happen?

      But it isn’t a civil war.  Don’t call it a civil war, cause it’s not a civil war.  Not like in Iraq.  This is totally different than anything like a civil war.  Like the one in Iraq.

    1. This has all the makings of a killer local derby- what about some ideas for team nicknames, colours, mascots and cheers?

      I’ve come up with the Fatah Fedaykin, with a uniform made out of Yasser-style dishrags, mascots in the form of exploding grounded airliners, or rolls of cash wrapped in Swiss bank stationary, and a cheer of “Yassers Karked but We’re not Farked”!

      And how about the Hamas Sandwiches, uniform consisting of head-to-toe dayglo Syrian commando-style cammo, mascots who run onto the field of play and detonate their C4 belts (who needs to wait for a score or half-time for pyrotechnics), and a cheer of “We’re the Habibs of Hamas, We’re Here to Blow Up your Cars, You Pigs of Fatah Make Us Spew, We’ll Kill You Just Like A Jew”!

      I’d happily sit up for hours watching live coverage of this grudge match, even though the beer and popcorn bill would be astronomical.

      Moonbat 4; ‘Really?  Thanks for the clarity Camilla.  ‘Hamas Hamas Hamas’

      2nd lawyer: “You’re a liar and a cheat!”

      Judge: “Now that learned counsel have identified each other, can we proceed with the trial?”

      This is actually really bad news, it means that Fatah and Hamas have finally found common ground.

      If one follows Middle Eastern politics, it soon becomes apparent that Arabs generally cannot agree on anything at all, except one thing: They hate the Jews. On that, they all agree and then continue fighting each other.

    1. Seal the borders, ship in more guns.

      To refine the suggestion: Seal the borders, with elbow-to-elbow troops if necessary. Send hourly C130 flights dropping supplies of AKs, ammo, grenades, and other small arms—nothing larger than an RPG.

      Continue until all is quiet in the area. When it is, the troops cordoning off the area go in,  and capture and execute the survivors as war criminals. Auction the land off to multinationals as sites for chemical factories to defray the costs of the operation.

      Repeat as needed. Probably not more than twice.

    1. O/T episode 2 of Moonbat Alpha. As good here as anywhere…

      The MOONBAT family are at the Channon Markets in the hills west of Byron Bay. BURNTOUT MOONBAT (father) is with PEACEFREAK MOONBAT (son) and PRISSY MOONBAT (daughter)BURNTOUT MOONBAT is studying the display at one of the market stalls.

      BURNTOUT MOONBAT

      Uh huh. Uh huh. So when you gonna withdraw from the West Bank? What you’re doing to the Palestinians is wrong, man. It’s just wrong.

      PEACEFREAK MOONBAT

      Dad, they’re Raelians.

      BURNTOUT MOONBAT

      Huh?

      PEACEFREAK MOONBAT

      Raelians. They believe people were created and brought to Earth by aliens. Maybe you should buy one of their books.

      BURNTOUT MOONBAT

      Sure. But like, I’m not paying by credit card. That information goes straight to the American government.

      FRUITY MOONBAT (mother) arrives from a nearby stall

      Oh, I love the markets! I love the markets! Look what I bought!

      PRISSY MOONBAT

      What is it, Mummy?

      FRUITY MOONBAT

      It’s fairy dust! Real fairy dust, darling! From Fern Gully! (reads from label) ‘When the dawniest dawn sparkles on a solstice morning in the rainiest rainforest, we gather the purest magicalest droplets of twinklingy fairy dew from the greeniest moistiestest leaves –

      PRISSY MOONBAT

      Can we sprinkle it on our crystals?

      FRUITY MOONBAT

      Sure we can. We’ll sprinkle it on all our crystals. Then we’ll plant them under our special fairy tree….oh, it’ll be wonderful. What have you bought Burntout? A CD?

      BURNTOUT MOONBAT

      Yeah, isn’t this cool? Laurie Anderson. I used to dig her stuff so much. You will too, Peacefreak. It’s like, really allegorical. Here commmme the plannnnnnnes—

      PEACEFREAK MOONBAT

      I’m a Defender of Gaia now, Dad. We don’t listen to any of that stuff. We only listen to hardcore. But we’re non-violent and vegetarian.

      BURNTOUT MOONBAT

      Uh huh. Uh huh. A Defender of Gaia, eh? Wow. When did this happen?

      PEACEFREAK MOONBAT

      Yesterday.

      BURNTOUT MOONBAT

      Hey, that’s….I’m so proud of you! So you’re like, restoring the cosmic balance? In harmony with nature? I can handle that.

      PEACEFREAK MOONBAT

      Currently we’re stockpiling anti-tank weapons.

      BURNTOUT MOONBAT:

      ……

      PEACEFREAK MOONBAT

      We have to smash the system, Dad. There’s only ten years before the cataclysm. Millions must die.

      FRUITY MOONBAT:

      Prissy! Look Prissy! The fairy dust! It’s twinkling! Make a wish!

      PRISSY MOONBAT

      I’m scared Mummy

      FRUITY MOONBAT:

      No Prissy. Don’t be scared. When the dawniest dawn sparkles on a solstice morning in the rainiest rainforest, that’s when the fairies leave their magical droplets of dew! And look! It’s right here!

      PEACEFREAK MOONBAT:

      We take over the dams and the reservoirs. We defend them long enough to put sterilization tablets in the water. We don’t care if we die.

      BURNTOUT MOONBAT:

      Uh huh. Uh huh. I mean that’s…..that’s kind of Zen. In a David Duke sort of way. Is it non-violent, though? You know, Maharaji…… Gandhi……Castenada……Jonathan Livingston Seagull….

      PEACEFREAK MOONBAT:

      Fuck them.

      FRUITY MOONBAT:

      Oh….oh……male energy…..male energy…..feng shui….. satyagraha…..ikebana…..lalalala

      BURNTOUT MOONBAT:

      Man. That’s heavy. Fuck Gandhi? Fuck Jonathan Livingston Seagull? That’s too much.

      PEACEFREAK MOONBAT:

      You’re either for us or against us, Dad. You have to decide.

    1. Pilger has always been a lefty rodent, even in the eightees, when I started keeping track of this disaffected propaganda artist. His love for Whitlam is almost. . .well, whatever. He is not what I would call credible. He insults this country overseas, like a certain Sheik, that he probably admires, then comes to a little bookshop in Eltham, and for $10, you can hear his, ‘limo lefty’ rantings. If, as he thinks he is, ‘the doyen of the latte left’, then why does he not do his readings in a more central part of Melbourne. Or in the Aboriginal communities, making a sizable donation while he is there. Then he could do a reading tour of Lakemba, after taking in La Trobe University et el. Then he will see just how xenophobic Australia really is. Finally, he could close his tour at Guantanamo Bay, a personal reading for Momaad Daewood, (still can’t get that tools name right), then back at La Trobe University for a massive love in with all the other weird moonbat Australia hating freaks. Then when he leaves this ‘evil’ nation, take that lefty imported editor Jaspen with him and let him be a copy boy for the Guardian. Nobody ever used take much notice of a pissed copy boy. So Pilger, sod off, you third rate hack.

      Don’t tell Fatah that rb1.  They’ll just shoot her in an “honor killing” and hide from Hamas.

      Palestinian Arabs shooting at each other will require them to develop new tactics, since they won’t be able to use the ones they use against the Israelis against each other.  For example, the Israelis try hard not to kill civilians, so the Arabs can hide behind civilians and shoot at the Israelis certain in the knowledge that the latter won’t just gun down their human shileds, like those women a few weeks ago who covered the escape of the terrorist bigshots holed up in a mosque from the Israelis.  Their brother Arabs will just massacre the lot.  “Let Allah sort them out.”

      The more these contemptible scum kill each other the better off the civilized world will be.
