Video shows masked men from various Palestinian factions announcing establishment of the Brigades of National Unity in Hebron; spokesman says group will pursue struggle until it "expels occupation, liberates all of Palestine."
"...a spokesman for the new group said it consisted of members of Fatah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine."
Haven't heard from the PFLP in a while. Guess they came out of retirement. It's the whole platter of Palestinian terrorists, including the supposed moderates in Fatah! Great. At least, with the last little engagement with Hamas, less Israeli civilians will die horribly in terrorist attacks in this third intifada.

That's pretty much all of them, except for al-Aqsa. Guess they're holding out for a better percentage.
I wonder if perhaps this doesn't show a crack within the ranks of the other groups? Perhaps they're quietly starting to reconsider their methods and the hardliners are becoming uncomfortable. Could be a good thing.

I admire your optimism. It would be a good sign, but the moderate Palestinians and the Israelis would still have to play whack-a-terrorist if your theory is correct.
Sadly, I'm more along the lines that these idiots do not realize they are going to literally destroy any hope for any peace with Israel that actually involves the Palestinians even getting some territorial concessions.

Is it like a 3rd date, they go all the way?

That, or they're hoping Israel destroys the competition so they're the true saviors of Palestine, or some bullshit like that.
