There is growing unrest in the Palestinian territories following the landslide 1 victory by the Islamic militant 2 group Hamas in
parliamentary elections. Hamas is taking a hard line on international demands to moderate its position.
----------------------------------------------
Palestinian militants 3 from the al-Aqsa Martyrs 4 Brigades, a militia 5 linked to the Fatah movement, wave flags and guns from the
roof of the Palestinian parliament building in Ramallah
Gunmen from the defeated Fatah party stormed into the Palestinian parliament building in the West Bank town of Ramallah,
firing in the air. They climbed onto the roof and hoisted 6 a picture of the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, who founded
Fatah nearly 50 years ago.
Angry Fatah activists 7 took to the streets across the West Bank and Gaza, blaming corrupt 8 officials for the election defeat
and demanding their resignation.
And there are signs that the internal Fatah unrest could lead to open warfare 9 with Hamas. In Gaza, armed police briefly 10
stormed the local parliament and demanded that Hamas members who killed their colleagues in recent months be put on trial. In
a roadside ambush 11, Hamas gunmen wounded two policemen aligned 12 with Fatah.
Fatah controls the 58,000 member security forces, and it is reluctant to hand over power to Hamas. That has raised fears of a
violent power struggle between Fatah and Hamas.
For its part, Hamas wants to merge 13 all armed factions 14, including its five-thousand fighters, into an army.
Khaled Mashaal
Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal told a Damascus news conference that the army would defend the Palestinian people against Israeli
aggression 15. He rejected U.S., European and Israeli demands that Hamas disarm 16. "As long as we are under occupation," Mashaal
said, "resistance is our right." Hamas has carried out dozens of deadly suicide bombings, and Mashaal did not rule out
further attacks on Israeli civilians 17.
Israel's defense 18 minister, Shaul Mofaz, said if that happens, Hamas leaders could be targeted for assassination 19. "If Hamas
will turn to terror," Mofaz warned, "it will find itself under an unprecedented 20 attack from the state of Israel."
