Bad news for the status of Palestinian factional reconciliation. Two blows, which are neither absolute nor fatal, but which need to be resolved promptly, intelligently and loudly for the positive momentum to be regained. Yallah, ya jammah! First, the Beach Agreement (the signed reconciliation agreement) didnt delineate how Gazas civil servants would be paid. Now, theres a heated drama about when and how theyll be paid. At the weekend, Hamas security forces in Gaza took over banks to prevent Fatahs civil servants from receiving their pay, in retaliation. And today, West Bank security forces cracked down on a Hamas-organised political rally. Testing the waters of political freedom in the West Bank, Hamas litmus proved a fail.
