Gaza isn´t a part of Israel now, for this reason, palestinians can´t complain against Israel about their problems, and therefore, they acusse the goverment or Hamas of corruption, killings, and other crimes. It´s normal this chaos. Now the sionist enemy isn´t the “guilty”.

Israeli troops launch major offensive in Gaza
Israeli aircraft blasted suspected Palestinian weapons facilities in Gaza on Sunday and authorities arrested hundreds of militants in the West Bank, launching an offensive against the Islamic group Hamas after it bombarded Israeli towns with rockets.
Prime Minister Ariel Sharon warned Sunday “all means” would be used to end attacks on Israel. Security officials said the military was preparing for possible artillery attacks and a ground invasion unless the Palestinian Authority or Hamas itself halts the rocket attacks…
The new offensive dubbed “Operation First Rain” dashed hopes that Israel’s recently completed Gaza withdrawal would help restart peace talks… The fighting also turned up already intense pressure on Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas to confront militants…

Hamas says it will stop attacking Israel from Gaza
The Palestinian militant group Hamas said Sunday that it will stop its attacks against Israel… Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas criticized both Hamas and Israel for breaking the ceasefire.
And he received limited support from the Israeli government. Israeli foreign minister Silvan Shalom said he understood that Abbas and the Palestinian authority were being undermined by Hamas - but he wanted Abbas to take action.

Israel detains electoral candidates from Hamas
The Israeli military has rounded up 379 militant activists, including dozens of electoral candidates from Hamas, prompting accusations that Israel is using a weekend truce breach as an excuse to crush the Islamic group before upcoming Palestinian elections.
The arrest sweep in the West Bank — the biggest in three years and part of a new offensive against Hamas — came after Israel failed to win international backing for its demand that the militant organization be barred from the Jan. 25 parliamentary vote.
Israel says a government that includes Hamas, which calls for the destruction of the Jewish state, would threaten peace prospects. But letting Hamas contest elections is the cornerstone of Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas’ plan to tame the group, and the Palestinian Authority believes it will be the main loser in the Israel-Hamas showdown.
The arrests, made over three days, are generating sympathy for Hamas and could further improve its strong electoral prospects. Abbas’ ruling Fatah movement is widely perceived as corrupt, and many Palestinians say they will vote for Hamas to teach Fatah a lesson and get better government services.
