#1 Interesting move. Apparently, Fatah wants to fix an impression that Hamassins are Iranian tools. In a way, it is correct--there is, no doubt, some give and take regards to Iranian funding of Hamas.

Well, do continue, Pal boys...

#2  If I was Abbas I would march them to the nearest wall and leave the bodies for the wild dogs. However the Palestinains are fools so they won't that goes double for the PA.

#3 SPoD, ya'right, them PA are fools, but in my crystal ball I see an impression of pliers in the near future of the detained Iranians. Even small favors count.

#7 This civil war might be a chance for Israel to get Iranian influence (anything major anyway) out of the territories. Israel can hardly go in and brutalize Hamas, but the World Community™ doesn't give a rats ass if the Paleos brutalize their own.

At this point, there is a plus side to supporting Mazen. I just hope somebody poisons his salad after the job's done. Can't be furgivin him for that Archille Lauro incident.

#10 Of course there were Iranians, but for innocent reasons. Gaza is a great vacation destination.

Frankly, because Fatah is Israel's Partner in Peace™ they should hand them over to Israel. Fatah will only get screams out of them. Israel will get information.

#11 Nice day dream, but abbas of course cant be seen turning anyone over the EEVIL Zionists. At least not in a way it could ever get out. More likely they will interrogated in Gaza. Probably with the friendly presence of Egyptian Intell. Getting, say, a CIA guy present disguised as an Egyptian would be nice, but I suspect Mubarak and Abbas would really make us pay for that. More likely they will dole out whatever they find, screening it to tell the story they want to tell.

#12 Before you get too exited 'burgers, you only have Fatah's world for there really being Iranians.

#13 Ok, I'll bite.

What do you think is the Fatah motive for faking that its Iranians (not contesting that you may be right, just want to explore the chess game)? A. To make Hamas look bad on the Pal street, and in the Arab world (esp KSA) B. To win undeserved sympathy from Israel and the US
C. Cause Israel and/or the US and/or the Egyptians have put them up to it to make Iran look bad D. Other?

#14 D. Because they didn't bathe in weeks, and smell like a wet rug with b o.

#15 Israel now, Lebanon-Syria in the future > all have a common enemy in Radic Iran. Some noteworthy or well-known Lefty blogs don't deny Iran's ambitions - they merely indic that Iran's ambitions are NOT a threat to the USA. Remember, the GLOBAL JIHADIST/ISLAMIST STATE is NOT a threat to anyone.
