It is a Whitmanian collection of strivers, sounding their barbaric yawps over the roofs of the world, dreaming of their own Clarkson coronation, ready to wait a lifetime, if need be, for a moment like that...

"It's Somalia in Gaza," a prominent Palestinian security official told TIME's Jamil Hamad. "There's a different government on every street corner." The official says he sent Abbas a memo last week begging him to call off the elections for fear of violence so severe that "there will be no wounded people this time, only dead people."
