It appears that Mahmoud Abbas....

   ....has [1]a clearer understanding of Islamofacism than many here in
   America.

     "There can be no dialogue with these murderers and putschists, and
     in our entire history, I cannot think of another force or group [of
     Palestinians] who murdered their own people, [looted] homes and
     property, and desecrated our national symbols, like the putschists
     in Gaza have done during this black week. To what end did they do
     this, and in the name of what religion? [It cannot have been] in
     the name of religion, for religion has nothing to do with acts such
     as these. Islam calls for tolerance and liberty. This is not Islam;
     it is alien to [the spirit of] Islam... The only purpose of the
     coup was to realize the sick and reckless fantasy of establishing
     an emirate of darkness and backwardness that will control, with
     fire and with an iron [fist], the lives, opinions and future of the
     1.5 million Palestinians in Gaza...
     "We have reached a new juncture, and there is no point in calling
     for dialogue as in the past. We must quell the putsch, in all its
     forms and manifestations, including by dismantling the Executive
     Force, which carried it out, and which was pronounced illegal by
     presidential decree. The Hamas leadership must apologize to the
     Palestinian people and to the PLO for the blood-soaked putsch it
     has perpetrated, and must hand over all PLO facilities and
     headquarters to the new legitimate government of united Palestine.
     It must obey the law and the decisions [of this new government, and
     stop] the destruction, crimes, assassinations, executions, looting,
     robbery, and other violations that have been carried out and are
     still being carried out in the Gaza Strip...
     "We are not hostile to anyone, nor do we exclude or distance anyone
     - but [Hamas] has betrayed the trust [placed in it] and staged a
     putsch against the legitimate [government]. They are not worthy
     [partners] for dialogue. There will be no dialogue with them under
     any circumstances..."

   Jimmah? Are you listening?
   It will be fascinating to see with whom the "peace activists" side in
   this struggle. The decision has to be giving them fits.
