Gaza: Worse Than Somalia

Jonathan Schanzer tallies the litany of disaster. Of course, the left and the Islamists love to blame Israel, but that simply denies the reality.
Hamas, the terrorist group that Palestinians last year elected to govern their territories, is failing to govern at all.

March alone saw at least 46 kidnappings of civilians in the Gaza Strip, as well as over 25 killings of Palestinians by fellow Palestinians.

Internecine violence has gotten so bad that one human-rights activist says Gaza "has become worse than Somalia." Yasser Abed Rabbo, an executive-committee member of the rival Palestine Liberation Organization, calls it "anarchy."
Read the rest. It's not a pretty picture.
