You are right. They probably would be better off with Fatah. That said, it is not the job of the US to support one faction over the other. As much as it might seem to be the right thing to do, these sorts of actions never amount to go and always end up causing more problems.

To my eyes, this is yet another attempt to find a quick and dirty solution to an issue that requires a long, slow game. The quick and dirty solutions almost never work.
