There are no words

The Palestinian factions have been engaged in a low level civil war since before the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza. They tear at each other like sharks in a womb, but today I think a line was crossed which could see the factionalism explode into full-fledged civil war. Some Hamasniks assasinated the children of a Fatah official as they travelled home from school, in full view of hundreds of school children. Children! It takes a special kind of depravity/fanaticism to look a child in the face and shoot it. I don't want to become a blowhard pundit, but some things do boggle the mind.
