If the Israeli policy makers think for a moment that this siege of Gaza will make Gazan Palestinians renounce Hamas in favor of the notoriously corrupt Fatah, they are making one huge mistake.
Gazan Palestinians do not blame Hamas (which won the last election handily in what observers characterized as a free and fair election).
They blame Israel, period, end of discussion.
But the Israelis are very smart people, and already know that a change of heart, leading Gazan Palestinians to renounce Hamas and embrace Fatah probably won't happen.
Could it be that Israel craves more violence on the part (allegedly) of Hamas as their justification of bombing Gaza to the point where no Gazan Palestinian will be left standing?
