No use throwing out a good agreement over one point
Representatives of Hamas and Fatah opened talks in Cairo on Sunday on implementing their 'reconciliation' agreement. Fatah Central Committee Member, Sakhr Bseiso, said that the issues under discussion will be the means of implementing the reconciliation agreement. These discussions will start with the issue of the government and move to all other issues within the agreement, including elections, prisoners, compensation for the Palestinian victims’ families, Gazan passports and residents prevented from travel and those who were forced out of Gaza after the events of 2007.I guess they just agree on everything else other than appointing Salam Fayyad Prime Minister.
Bseiso added that, “It is not logical to stop the reconciliation because of one point,” referring to the issue of the government.
What could go wrong?

Its not just Fayyad. Neither of them wants to give up power. Even if they agree on a new Prime Minister, the Palestinians are a long way from real unity!
