Yeah I know...I sound too happy, but what can I say...at least they are not killing Jews!  Maybe Sderot will be getting a break?  Does this sound like a Civil War?

Forces loyal to Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas of Fatah were ordered Tuesday evening to defend their positions in the Gaza Strip, and counter a “coup” by rival Hamas Islamists.

Hamas, stepping up a rapidly expanding power struggle, on Tuesday afternoon launched attacks against installations of security forces allied to Fatah, seizing a number of smaller positions and laying seige to others.

“Advance, our forces! Confront the seekers of the coup. Defend your dignity and your military honour. Defend the security of your people,” the command of Abbas’ National Security Forces said in a statement issued in Gaza.
