#1 Perhaps neither side fully understands the meaning of the word "unity". Perhaps ex-prez Bill Clinton should mediate.

#5 More like irreconcilable differences.

Fatah likes rioting light with negotiation in an unending circle of riots, negotiation, and attrition.

Hamas likes 100 mm diameter sewer pipe rockets, suicide bombs, and mayhem, in a similar cycle of attrition of Israel.

So the end result is the same: the destruction of Israel. Negotiation involves some degree of trust. There is no trust here, so it is a waste of time.
