On June 15th, Hamas attacked Abbas authority facilities in Gaza. On 17th June, his rival Fatah controled the area including the Prime Minister's office and the ministry of Education on the western bank of Jordan River where was administered by Hamas. And an emergency government was established in West Bank city of Ramallah, replacing the two-month-old unity government led by Hamas.

The president Abbas declared that Hamas and his military forces are all illegimate and they will be punished. On Thursday, he dismantled the government led by Hamas. However, Hamas rejected Abbas' decision and regarded the emergency government as illegimate.

For the two sides ,which one is illegimate? Who has the say? Any ideas?

Hard to distinguish from two sides. Each side claims that they are legitimate and has their loyal supporters. For other nations, some support Abbas, others support Hamas. Where is the future of Palestine?
