From Israeli Action in Gaza Met by Loud Silence from Arab World:
Palestinian Information Minister Riad al-Malki responded to Israel Defense Forces raids against militants firing rockets from Gaza by saying: “Hamas gave Israel an excuse to start a war in Gaza.” Mahmoud Abbas said that the “operation in Gaza is not just a reaction to the rocket barrage.” Both comments can be interpreted as Palestinian backing of the Israel Defense Forces ground incursion. Moreover, the very mild Egyptian reaction also indicates that the IDF raid is perceived by the Arab world to be first and foremost a war against Hamas, not the Palestinian people. The fact that Al Jazeera devoted a whole episode of a popular debate show to the question “Why are the Palestinians keeping silent about the situation in Gaza?” also serves to prove this point.
