Crunch Time

It appears thats events in Israel and the Territories is rapidaly approaching a convergence point. I can't help but think that this clash is being actively sought by the Palestinians, Hamas being at the top of the list of supporters. Why? Perhaps because Hamas realizes that the reason why people voted for them as compared to Fatah, corruption, is something that is likely to bring them down, just as it brought down the former party of Arafat. So by bringing the Intifadah back, which looks to be the likely result of all of this, Hamas hopes that it can deflect anger back against Israel.
