"The fighting between Hamas and Fatah militants hasn't played out just in the streets of the Gaza Strip. The rivals also pummeled each other over the airwaves with such epithets as "mercenary death squads," "child killers" and "Zionists."
The rhetoric, coupled with the stations' power to quickly rally their armed supporters in the streets, has led to fears that the broadcasters could fan the flames into full-blown civil war.
"If we wanted, we could burn down Gaza," said a smiling Ibrahim Daher, director of Aqsa Radio, the Gaza voice of Islamic Hamas.
Fatah has been locked in a power struggle with Hamas since losing legislative elections in January, which handed Hamas control of most of the Palestinian government. The tensions have routinely erupted into fighting, most recently after a drive-by shooting Dec. 11 which killed the children of a senior security official loyal to President Mahmoud Abbas of Fatah. That round of fighting killed 17 people."
