Seeing Dahlan and Hamas sit down together is wild, considering their history. It really shows how much the ground has shifted post-war. I wonder if this is a genuine coalition or just a marriage of convenience for the elections.

Brother, don’t let the photo ops fool you. Dahlan’s camp has UAE backing, Hamas has Iran and Qatar. Their sponsors have totally different endgames. This won’t last.
Honestly I respect the pragmatism. The old infighting only served the occupation. If they can put egos aside and unite on a program of resistance and rebuilding, then this is a massive win, even if it smells a bit fake.
It’s clearly a marriage of convenience. They hate each other’s guts but both are weakened right now. The real test is what happens after the election if this alliance actually wins something.
We’ve been burned so many times by Palestinian “unity” deals. I am cautiously optimistic but I’ll believe it when I see them share power without backstabbing each other over ministry posts.
May Allah guide them to what's best for the people.
La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah. Gaza needs unity, not more drama.
Allah knows best what's behind this.
SubhanAllah, never thought I'd see the day.
Politics is a dirty game, man. Yesterday’s enemy is today’s friend. I just hope the ordinary Palestinians don’t get sold out again for some seats in parliament.
