| [ARABNEWS] Rival Paleostinian factions Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, and Fatah said they reached an agreement for the return of their unity government in Gazoo ahead of crucial negotiations with Israel next month. The Paleostinian rivals had set up a unity government of independents in June but it never took hold, with Paleostinian president the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial... accusing Hamas of running a "parallel" administration as de facto ruler in the Gazoo Strip. Hamas in turn accused Abbas's Paleostinian Authority, headquartered in Ramallah, of not paying its 45,000 employees in Gazoo. "Fatah and Hamas have reached a comprehensive agreement for the unity government to return to the Gazoo Strip," Jibril Rajoub of Fatah said. Senior Hamas official Mussa Abu Marzuk and Fatah's head of delegation, Azzam Al-Ahmad, confirmed that an agreement had been reached after two days of talks in Cairo. The talks were crucial for internal Paleostinian divisions to be set aside and to agree on a unified strategy during talks with Israeli negotiators in October. The October talks, under Egyptian mediation, are aimed at reaching a durable ceasefire between Israel and the Paleostinians after the 50-day war between Israel and Hamas. |
