FTA:

Oslo gets a bad name today. And perhaps that's fair since it failed. And failure is a bad thing. But we shouldn't ignore the irony that we have spent the last six month in the grip of Hamas and Benjamin Netanyahu. And if you look back at the period from 1993 to 1996, there are two players who destroyed Oslo, as a matter of strategy and design. Netanyahu and Hamas. They both saw it as in their interests to kill it and they did kill it. You can question the good faith of the key actors of both sides of Oslo. But those two are the ones who set out to kill it and did kill it. They have always been, in effect, allies.

"They have always been, in effect, allies."

Too many in the student protest movement don't understand this. It is one thing to champion Palestians. It's another thing to champion Hamas without acknowledging the co-dependent relationship they have with Bibi. And vice versa.
