#5 Hamas headed into a full-blown confrontation with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Monday, voting to strip him of powers he was hastily awarded by his Fatah Party in the last session of the outgoing parliament.

These guys seem to be a bit unclear on this concept of democracy. Reminds me of the Russians - just a little less subtle.
