Hamas "condemned" the attack but did not act against it or any of the others. Someone had free reign.

Also from the article:

Dozens of armed intelligence and security personnel firing angrily into the air joined a funeral procession through the city streets carrying aloft the victims' bodies, urged on by anti-Hamas slogans. Accusing the " Iranian-backed" Ministry of the Interior of doing " nothing" in response to such attacks, one Fatah activist yelled through a loudspeaker: "If it had been Hamas children that were killed it would be different."

According to the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights, 31 children have been killed in the past 11 months because of internal "security chaos"

Yeah, but that took place back during the Clinton administration when Janet "Sterno" was in charge of the Justice Department.

Of course, nothing like that is happening internally now.

It's vaguely plausible but the source is questionable. This is a fourth hand report (Gazan contacts -> West Bank Palestinians -> Jerusalem Post -> Israeli News) delivered by an Israeli news site. I'm hesitant to put much faith in it without corroboration from a more reliable source.

OK, if the Israeli media is never credible then we should also automatically discount anything said by the iranian media and especially al-brassiera.

Level playing field. Deny hypocrisy.

No, rather to point out one side's terrorist is the other side's freedom fighter, and both employ terrorism. Democracy should try to stand above that, at least with it's own.

Free hand or the hidden hand of a Kiddon unit like in the recent assassination of 35 Hamas officials during the cease fire?

If the Israelis had done it, don't you think Hamas and Fatah would of came out an condemned Israel?

Why the double standard by Hamas if it was supposedly Israel? Does Hamas think it would be ok for Israel to kill Fatah, but launch rockets when Hamas are killed by Israelis?

The Israeli media can be a credible source but as with anything you need corroboration, especially when the source reporting the news has a high potential for bias and / or a motive for manipulation via the media. This goes for any source you like.

The fact that this hasn't been picked up by any major news outlet should tell you something.

Hamas officials admitted to executing at least 35 of these "collaborators" at detentions facilities across Gaza since the Israeli strikes began more than a week ago.

Now we know where Hamas got some of the bodies of the innocent civilians that they claim Israel killed.

Could actions by Hamas lead to a peace agreement between Fatah and Israel
