Political Ramblings Part 1.

Heard recently about the news that HAMAS had won major elections in the West Bank last week as the Palestinians held a general election. Been giving some thoughts to it. (I can't help it, i'm really into this Middle East politics...)

Interesting. A terrorist organization responsible till date for almost all major bombings in Israel has just taken control of a mainly political situation in the West Bank, pushing aside the Palestinian Authority and the widely popular FATAH movement with such ease.

Now, it is because of them that the situation in the Middle East becomes tricky. It's because of them that the Israelis send in their tanks, soldiers, and mighty armoured Bulldozer that is 2 story high to demolish Palestinian buildings. So how in the world did they win? It just doesn't make sense.

Does it?

It does, to the disbelief and misunderstanding of most common people.

The cycle of violence will not end; instead, it had just turned political.

And the political war is often deadlier than the normal conventional war.

Oh well, but who am i to know all this?

I'm just a humble 3SG serving in the SAF with no proper qualification whatsoever to express any significant opinion on the Mid-East Crisis.

And i'll leave more space in other entries next time coz i really need to go now.
