What came first, the chicken or the egg?

The reason Likud/Netanyahu have gained and regained power in Israel over and over again, is because of Hamas rhetoric and actions.
The reason Hamas defeated the more moderate Fatah in elections, gained and retained power in Palestine, is because of Likud/Netanyahu rhetoric and actions.

It's an unholy dance straight from the fucking depths of hell.
