Civil War in Gaza--UPDATE

The Palestinians are eating their own:

"We have always asked for international forces to come to the West Bank and Gaza," Abbas confidant Saeb Erekat told Israel's Army Radio. But, he added, "Honestly, on the personal level, I believe that if we don't help ourselves as Palestinians, nobody can."
The people spoke and this is what they got.
".... the Arab people have spoken, haven't they? Clearly and unequivocally their voice is heard."

Democracy can be a bitch. Look at our ruling elites.


UPDATE: Now, here's a novel solution to the problem.

Palestinians: Orcs or Reavers?

Melissa Clouthier said...

Orcs were created by horrible mutations of actual humans. Reavers were drugged into existence--the goal being pacifying the public, and oops! there was a little problem.

If we're going with Tolkien, I would more likely say they're the "outlanders", the rebels still mad at Rohan, who join with evil in retribution. Of course, they're slaughtered by their own leadership, too.

Given the passive assume-fetal-position-before-being-shot behavior of all those Virginia Tech students, it seems there's a lot of Pax being pumped into America's atmosphere as well as Miranda's.

Think Cho just had the Reaver reaction to the Pax?
