    Hamas and Fatah – the two main Palestinian factions which have been at odds for almost two decades – have agreed in talks in Cairo to create a committee that will jointly run the postwar Gaza Strip.

    While Israel had refused to countenance a “day after” governing scenario involving {Gaza led by Hamas} or the Fatah-dominated Palestinian Authority (PA) in the West Bank, the move nonetheless signifies fresh willingness from Hamas to give up its rule of Gaza and could help advance internationally mediated ceasefire talks.

    In talks brokered by Egypt, the two sides agreed on a committee of 10 to 15 politically independent technocrats, most of them from Gaza, who will administer education, health, the economy and aid and reconstruction with the help of international actors, negotiators said on Tuesday.

    What do you think? According to others and now me, this seems awfully familiar to Fatah capitulation

      There is no problem with Fatah ruling leadership in Gaza, but our fear after the end of the war is that Gaza will become like the West Bank, with Israel entering it at any time, however it wants.
