#3 They're not animals---who're mostly sane, and their main problem is not f*cking enough.

#4 It's more than enough, judging by the birthrate.

#5 Sex is not just for procreation, it's also for fun. Ask any bonabo. Or, for that matter, according to Alcock, in lions there are (approx) 3000 copulation per each cub.

#6 Paleo in-fighting is a feature, not a bug. When the Paleos get along, THAT is a cause for concern for the IDF. Clandestine operations should encourage in-fighting.

#7 Hopefully the infighting breaks out into full-scale brawls on the streets. Would be a shame to see both Fatah and Hamas going at it in broad daylight. God forbid it stops short AGAIN and all returns to normal of killing Isrealis.

#8 Civil wars, albeit bloody affairs, can bring clarity. The English had one and came away with a united monarchy and a powerful parliamentary system. The US civil war ended slavery and redefined the nature of the Union. In each case centuries of relative political stability and prosperity followed.

Of course, these are Palestinians we're talking about, so it could be a barbaric mess that resolves nothing. We'll find out.

#9 "Palestinian infighting", much like "French dip", is a redundancy. One of the best oxymorons I ever coined, some 20 years ago, was "Arab unity".
