Hello, what do you think of the point of view of STRATFOR:

The Relative Insignificance of the Leaked Palestinian Documents
January 24, 2011 2158 GMT
Leaked information regarding a compromise the Fatah-led Palestinian government was willing to make with Israel is not likely to create major problems for the Palestinians.

I haven't read the full article, but usually they get good remarks on the problems.

Friedman is usually pretty good, but here he's just guessing. He
has no idea what the Palestine Papers will trigger. They might
trigger increased anti-Israeli riots by Palestinians, or they
might even trigger a new war between Fatah and Hamas.

And the results wouldn't necessarily be immediate. There might be
something in the papers that causes a chain reaction that leads
to something in a month or two.

An interesting related note is that a number of people are blaming
the Tunisian riots on WikiLeaks releases from a while ago that
expose the corruption of the Ben Ali regime.
