Partners In Peace

How serious is Hamas about "making peace" with Israel? This serious:

Charming.

Hmm: Then again, perhaps Islamic Jihad is taking their orders from somewhere else. After all, it's not like their ties to Iran are all that secret or anything.

Update: Well lookee, lookee: To anyone who thinks you can somehow differentiate between Ismael Haniyeh (the "political" wing of Hamas), and the "militant" Islamic Jihad wing—I submit this:

Update again: Such a culture of peace. This kid can't be much older than 10:

Shekaki was shot and killed in a shooting attack in Malta in 1995. The group claims Israel was responsible for his death. (AP Photo/Adel Hana)

I'll have more from both protests as they come across the wires. It'll be interesting to see if any more "spontaneous" anti-Israeli protests pop up.

Update: Aha, it would seem that this little "spontaneous" demonstration has a purpose:
