 Exchanges of fire have been reported Saturday in a Gaza neighborhood between members of Army of Islam and gunmen belonging to an al-Qaeda-affiliated group.   The clashes left seven wounded. Both sides involved in the shootout belong to the Doghmush clan.    The shootout reportedly included the firing of at least five mortar shells. Meanwhile, Hamas forces rushed to the scene and surrounded the site of the battle. On August 14th, Hamas members clashed with loyalists of a Salafi organization associated with al-Qaeda in the Strip. Hamas forces surrounded a mosque in Rafah after the Salafi group's sheikh declared that the Gaza Strip is an Islamic Emirate and that his followers belong to al-Qaeda and are loyal to Osama Bin-Laden. The sheikh was killed in the subsequent firefights.On Wednesday, the Hamas government reportedly released 28 members of the Salafi group after saying they pledged not to destabilize Gaza's security in the future.

In Gaza you can see Islam at

In Gaza you can see Islam at its best. People of the same clan and the same religion constantly killing on another because Islam encourages Muslims to fight for the truth. But truth is relative and everyone sees it from his or her perspective differently. But the consequence of this Islamic indoctrination is that Muslims will continue killing one another until their total destruction.

The best thing Israel did was to build that wall. This makes Palestinians turn to each other and instead of killing Israelis kill one another.
