This deserves the big bowl of popcorn.RAMALLAH, West Bank -
“The crisis is getting worse ... Without a political agreement, security will remain disturbed,” Abbas said.
Security went to hell the day the Israelis pulled out of Gaza.
Abbas added that he had the authority to dismiss the government. “This is a constitutional right. I can do it whenever I want,” Abbas said.
"Look at meeeee! I'm important!"
Aides to Abbas earlier said they expected him to say in his speech that he would allow one more attempt at forming a new government of technocrats, and that if that failed, he would call fresh parliamentary and presidential elections.
In which Hamas will be elected with a larger majority.
Hamas, which surprised Fatah to win parliamentary elections in January, has said it would regard any call for fresh elections as a coup. Khalil al-Hayya, the head of HamasÂ’s faction in parliament, said on Friday that Hamas would not agree to an early election or a referendum on the issue. He did not say what action Hamas would take if Abbas called new elections.
They're already shooting at each other. What's next, heavy artillery?
