Will Hamas candidates run in Palestinian elections?

Hamas-operated Al-Aqsa tv claimed Wednesday that the terror group plans to participate in Palestinian elections on November 28, the first in 20 years. Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, who belongs to Hamas’s rival Fatah group, has promised elections at least four times before, only to cancel them. Fatah leaders might feel they can politically defeat Hamas in its last strongholds in war-ravaged Gaza, but Zechariah 14:1-2 and other Bible prophecies show that Palestinians in the West Bank will grow so volatile that they will conquer half of Jerusalem. Rather than a Fatah takeover of Gaza, a Hamas takeover in the West Bank appears to be the likelier outcome.
