I think herein is the whole mess in Palestine in a nutshell.
The Hamas PM goes around the Arab World to raise funds.
When he returns, he is stopped at an Israeli checkpoint because he has a crapload of cash on him. After a while, he was allowed to enter.
Then all hell breaks loose when he wades into a firefight between Hamas and Fatah.
One of his bodyguards is killed and his son is hit in the face, but he gets away.
Just a while ago, he was on TV, ranting about how they will have vengence, how the US will be defeated in Iraq (huh??), and he accuses Fatah of plotting to assassinate him in that incident.
The PM then goes on to rant that the Palestinians are united and will prevail against external enemies and that all external enemies will be killed.
Then Fatah denies that it was them at the firefight.
All the while, the whole of Palestine is turned into a free-for-all fight by the factions when Hamas supporters fight Fatah supporters.
I think even if Israel disappeared right now, and that the whole of the bloody Middle East was given to them, they'd still reduce it to cinders if they could.
I would say that all they want is violence. They have no plans, no goals, nothing except the "destruction of Israel".
What a mess. Alas
