The truth is out there

You can read below to find the Fatah reaction to the Hamas victory. My take on the Palestinian elections being won by Hamas?

Let's not fool ourselves. There is no change this morning except that 20 years of lies and half-truth can come to an end. The Palestinians do not want peace. The Palestinians do not want a two state solution. The Palestinians have voted, freely and openly, for a platform that calls for the genocide and the destruction of Israel. This is not a bad thing. They are now merely admitting in public what they always believed in private. Now perhaps policy can reflect reality.

As the light of truth shine in, let us watch how the world reacts. I am sure it will be entertaining, as well as informative. Meanwhile, let the roadmap wither and finish the fence. Continue to build in the larger settlement blocks and evacuate the smaller ones. Create the facts on the ground - a small, truncated Palestine in Gaza and most of the West Bank containing the overwhelming majority of the Palestinian population, but without Jerusalem, without the Jordan River Valley. No jobs for Palestinians in Israel, no so-called "security" cooperation, and no pointless "gestures" like prisoner releases and safe passage corridors. Let violence be met with extreme military reaction. Above all, let reality intrude on our phantasm of peace at all costs.

All in all, a good day - the air is clearer now. Take a deep breath.
