| #7 If Barghouti wins, all Israel has to do is put his cabinet in adjoining cells. |

| #6 If Barghouti wins, this will just show that the Paleostinians have dug themselves such a deep hole that it would be most efficient to keep digging till they came out the other side. But based upon the history of Paleostinian choices, I would not be surprised that they would vote for such a stupid choice. |

| #5 Refresh me, does this mean that if Barghouti runs (from jail) and wins the election, Israel HAS to let him out of prison...on 'gp'? Or would this require just a run off of the second and third choices? |

| #4 There is obviously bad blood between Marwan B and the Egyptians. I think Mubarak thinks that Barghouti's people were the ones who spat at the Egyptian FM when he visited Temple Mount (aka Holy Enclosure) in Jerusalem. |

| #2 Ah, I see. So for Mubarak, having more candidates that have some chances of getting votes damages the Paleo unity. Well, somewhat close, Mubarak, the unity as an overriding factor is not a democratic vote but a demographic vote... so no cigar. |

| #1 I still say Barghouti is going to win, unless the election is rigged. |
