Let Your Freak Flag Fly

Interesting story about flagmakers in Gaza working overtime to produce flags for Hamas to raise over Israeli settlements that are to be evacuated later this month. ^{hat tip: LGF}

Flagmaker Haitham Abu Khaled said he and others would make at least 10,000 green Hamas banners for the settlement takeover. In July, another flagmaker said Abbas's Palestinian Authority had ordered up 60,000 national red-black-and-green banners.
