Fatah And Hamas Continue Power Struggle

In Gaza, Hamas and Fatah clash again for control. It appears Hamas is targeting officials of Fatah that maintain positions in the Hamas lead government.

(AP/Yahoo)A Gaza security chief loyal to the Palestinian president was killed Wednesday when his car blew up, the second attack on a top commander in less than a week.

Meanwhile in the West Bank Israeli troops battle with Palestinians in an attempt to arrest a militant.

In Ramallah, seat of the Palestinian government in the West Bank, the second Israeli arrest raid in as many days turned violent from the outset.

Palestinians spotted undercover Israeli forces in a Ford sedan near Manara Square in the center of the city, opened fire and threw rocks at the soldiers, Palestinian officials and the Israeli military said. The Israelis in the car and reinforcements brought in for the raid returned fire, killing four Palestinians and wounding more than 30. Ambulances darted in and out of the melee, taking casualties to the hospital.

The shame of this is that the Palestinian people are suffering while everyone but themselves are determining their destination.
