    What coup are you referring to?

    I have never heard of this, and hours of research turned up nothing.

      “Hours of research” failed to turn up the 2006 coup by Fatah in an attempt to seize control of the democratically elected PA government? They failed in Gaza but took control in West Bank. The Knesset publicly held discussions and decided to fund Fatah’s coup including giving them weapons. We’re still feeling the repercussions today, and naturally Netanyahu used it as an excuse to avoid any further peace negotiations after he helped fragment the Palestinian leadership in a fait accompli.
