Abed Rabbo: Hamas would form pact with Satan

[oberliner]

Ramallah – Ma’an – Senior PLO official Yasser Abed Rabbo assailed Hamas on Tuesday morning, accusing the group of plotting to “ally with the devil” in order to weaken the Palestinian Authority (PA).

The criticism comes amid media reports that Hamas is poised to conclude a deal with Israel that would involve the release of 1,000 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for a soldier held by guerrillas in Gaza. Both Fatah and Hamas prisoners would be released.

An exchange of this magnitude would be a victory for Hamas and a potential embarrassment for the Fatah-dominated PA and PLO leadership in Ramallah, who have not secured any similar victories vis-a-vis Israel. President Mahmoud Abbas demanded a halt to settlement construction before he would head back to the negotiating table, but the recent Israeli approval of 900 homes to be constructed in the Bethlehem-area settlement of Gilo further highlighted the failure of the move.

Against this backdrop, Abed Rabbo claimed that Hamas had refused reconciliation with its rivals, and refused to be involved in the political process.

1. Poor, little PA.

These fucks haven't done shit for the people they claim to represent, except line their pockets with money.

PA is a failure. Fatah sucks. Hamas sucks even more!

2. Abed Rabbo's PA already has made such a pact

with both Big and Little Satan, no less; the desperate, ambitious little hypocrite is one to talk.

3. The US and Israel are The Big and Little Satan?

You are embracing that characterization of those countries?

4. You do realize that Satan was just another of GAWD's angels in heaven, and not a devil?

5. I'm going to embrace it and run with it...

I figure that 'imperial lackey running-dog' is so last year and I need to upgrade...

6. I believe that was the implication, yes

Initially it was with an impish tongue in cheek (something of a play on words for Rabbo's ridiculous original statement), but I will own to it with complete seriousness at this time.
