PFLP warns of a "popular explosion" in Gaza against Hamas

The PFLP, one of the many terror groups operating in Gaza, has warned Hamas that its policies may result in a "popular explosion" against the ruling Islamist regime.

The organization cited Hamas' increasing violence in collecting taxes, as well as an increase in murders, suicides, robberies and drugs in Gaza.

On Friday alone, there were reports of a 60-year old shop owner in Khan Younis was stabbed to death, a man in Rafah set himself on fire, killing himself, and an unidentified body, showing signs of torture, was found dumped near the port of Gaza.

The PFLP also cited the actions Hamas has instigated against "offensive" hairstyles and clothing as well as its intolerance for popular demonstrations.

The PFLP is a secular/socialist organization.

It will be interesting to see how Hamas reacts to this.
