Are they dissidents? Militants? Activists? Defectors? Disadvantaged youths resisting oppression? Only Allah knows for sure: Dissident Fatah militants join Hamas force.
GAZA CITY (AFP) - More than 1,000 Fatah dissidents marched through Gaza City declaring their allegiance to a rival Hamas security force, two days after deadly clashes between the Palestinian factions.
“We are with the Hamas government standing against corruption,” the demonstrators shouted.
Marching in formation, stomping feet and swinging arms, the militants fired into the air and shouted religious slogans.
“What’s your goal?” shouted a leader. “Allah,” responded the marching soldiers. “What’s your path?” “Jihad,” a thousand voices responded in unison.
