Paying salaries and keeping the right to kill jews

I wouldn’t bet on it, but I am not so sure this 'isolate Hamas in the Gaza Strip' is going to be one of the international communities more successful boycotts. Ha’aretz reports Hamas found the money:

In an act of defiance against Fatah, Hamas on Saturday said it will begin paying salaries of civil servants in the Gaza Strip. Hamas said it will pay over 10,000 civil servants who were cut from the payroll of the rival West Bank-based administration because of their loyalty to Hamas, a union official said.

In all, the Palestinian Authority employs about 165,000 people, half of them members of the security forces. After the fall of Gaza to Hamas, Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Salam Fayad ordered civil servants in Gaza not to cooperate with Hamas.

Palestinian-American money man Fayad has his own PR problems reports Ha’aretz:

A Popular Resistance Committee spokesman threatened Saturday that Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Salam Fayad and his government are targets for military operations such as are employed against Israel.

Speaking to reporters in the Gaza Strip, PRC spokesman Abu Abir dubbed Abbas, Fayad and other members of the government the "Ramallah traitors" and vowed they will receive an "identical response as to the Israeli occupation." The PRC is an umbrella organization for various militant groups in the Gaza Strip.

In response to Friday's ommission of a call for "armed resistance" against Israel in the proposed PA government's platform, Abir described the cabinet as illegal and unrepresentative of the Palestinian nation. Abir said Fayad's government supports the United States' policies and collaborates with "the Israeli enemy," as it damaged Palestinian resistance. He added that his group only recognizes a government under the authority of deposed PA prime minister, Gaza-based Hamas' leader Ismail Haniyeh.

Islamic Jihad decided to weigh in on the issue and have got Hamas' back on this.
