West Bank story :Hamas & Fatah rumble in 'The mother of all turf wars' '

Submitted by Ben van de Polder (United States), Jan 27, 2006 at 14:59

No sooner were the 'election' results announced for a country which is non existent then the thugs of Hamas and Fatah started to 'rumble' in what is turning out to be "the mother of all turf wars". And amazingly not a UN peacekeeper in sight.
