"Why in the world are these Palestinians fighting amongst themselves! As they don't have enough outside enemies..."
"Power sharing is not easy - I mean we know that from our own history. Has any powerful leader ever been happy about power sharing?"
"Musharraf is..."
"Whatever system of government he represents you know that even our so-called democrats exercised power dictatorially. One considered himself a Mughal emperor and the other the Queen of Sheba."
"And they still fight and fail to agree even though they say their goal is one and their enemy is one so to speak."
"And the enemy of the Palestinians is all that much clearer to identify."
"Indeed the Israelis who, incidentally, have started pounding Gaza and killing more militants."
"Hamas or Fatah?"
"For now the targets are Hamas leaders but you know about collateral damage and all."
"Do you want to know the irony of these strikes?"
"What?"
"Hamas was initially supported by the Israelis as a buffer against Yasser Arafat's highly popular and secular party."
"There is nothing odd in that. Osama bin Laden was also supported by the Americans at one time - remember the days of the Soviet invasion."
"Yes and don't forget Nawaz Sharif also supported Musharraf at one time."
"Indeed but does Israel really want peace?"
"The majority of the people do but I don't think the army or the politicians do."
"So they kill Palestinians..."
"Yes and now the Palestinians have started fighting amongst themselves."
"So Muslims are fighting Muslims and..."
"To add further spice the Americans and Israelis are killing Muslims - in Iraq, in Afghanistan."
"Sad but true."
