Blogger’s Note: The Palestinian Authority is Fatah-controlled – whilst Gaza is Hamas-controlled. The latter is “Socialist” (Marxist and/or Marxist-Leninist) whilst the former is a left-leaning Islamacist controlled from Iran. The people in West Palestine keep voting-in Fatah – whilst the East Palestinians keep voting-in Hamas. Whereas Fatah advocate a peaceful co-existence and resolving of the situation with Israel (the “BDS” movement of economically boycotting Israel is advocated by Fatah) – Hamas (funded and armed by Iran) prefers a military resolution. The PLO was a broad coalition of ALL Palestinian factions – albeit under the control of Fatah. This lasted until the death of Yassar Arafat – now the two-sides often work amongst one another. It is complicated as there are Islamic militants living within the Palestinian Authorities and Fatah-supporters around Gaza – this explains why there are the occasional stories of Fatah soldiers clashing with Hamas fighters – and vice-versa – as they traverse through one another’s yerritories. Here is the main issue – although left-leaning, the Hamas movement rejects secular Marxism and views it as an attack upon Islam – whilst Fatah advocates a “Secular” Socialist society within which all religions should peacefully co-exist as a private matter (with everyone possessing the right to be “Atheist”). The Zionist Jews and Islamicists reject this interpretation and believe their respective religions should dominate the entire political system – with atheism being illegal and all other religions subordinate. In the final analysis, these factions tend to function through a loose affiliation that opposes Israeli dominance and military aggression. Many White supporters of Iran, for instance, parrot the Iranian opposition to Marxism – and on it goes. ACW (1.7.2026)
