‘Three-state’ reality emerges as Hamas-Dahlan leadership takes shape in Gaza
2017-07-05
[IsraelTimes] Political reconciliation in Strip likely to defer war with Israel in short term, but lead to deadlier confrontation later.

Samir Mashrawi is coming back to Gazoo. And his return suggests a political earthquake is about to strike the Strip.

Mashrawi is a loyalist of former Fatah leader and the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas

#2  When it comes, the next confrontation is likely to be deadlier and more dangerous for Israel.

True. Back in the day, when the Paleos were launching random rockets that only hit anything of value on the rarest of occasions, Israel could afford to sit back and play Tit-for-Tat. But now that HamAss has a big pile of shiny, dangerous toys, Israel will have to come strong at the first sign that something is jumping off. Given the danger, I'd expect them to take preemptive action despite the resulting howls of international outrage.

#1  One Israel for the secular, one Israel for moderately religious, and one for ultra-orthodox?
