From Al Arabiya:
Rival Palestinian factions Fatah and Hamas said on Monday they have decided to end years of infighting in a show of solidarity over the Gaza crisis, AFP news agency reported.

"From here, we announce with other (factional) leaders, that we are ending the division," senior Fatah official Jibril Rajoub told a crowd of about 1,000 who gathered for a demonstration in Ramallah, the West Bank's political capital.

Among those present at the rally were top members of Hamas's leadership in the West Bank as well as senior officials from its smaller rival Islamic Jihad, the AFP correspondent said.

Ramallah's Manara Square was a sea of Palestinian flags as the crowd chanted "Unity!" and "Hit, hit Tel Aviv" in an appeal to Hamas militants who have fired at least five rockets at the coastal city since Thursday.
Its so nice to know that they can agree about something!

Obviously, this is a joke - Hamas in Gaza didn't announce any unity, and they are the only ones who count. It is not conceivable that Hamas would accept Fatah negotiating cease fire terms on its behalf.

Only this morning Fatah complained that the Gaza leaders were keeping Fatah members under house arrest.
