		At first glance the violence in Jabaliya in Palestine and in the Iraqi town of Samarra appear to be unconnected.
		Jabaliya and Samarra may also be seen as linked symbols of a bigger problem.
		Jabaliya and Samarra, officially, are distinct theatres in the wider "war on terror".

		Jabaliya was the place where the first intifada broke out in 1987, and has remained a stronghold for most Palestinian militant groups, but mainly Hamas, throughout the years.
		During the Al Aqsa intifada that erupted on September 28, 2000, Jabaliya was one of the first areas to rise up against Israeli forces, and has been the cradle of settlement attackers and 'Qassam' rocket launchers in the Gaza Strip.
		Indeed, the network of narrow pathways in Jabaliya were recently covered with awnings to protect militants from Israeli combat helicopters and unmanned drones hovering over the camp around the clock.

		Jabaliya, Gaza -- The preschool's iron gate clangs behind us, shutting out the dust and concrete-block ugliness of Jabaliya, the largest Palestinian refugee camp in the world (population 120,000).
		The day before my tour of Jabaliya, I sat down in a corner of a busy office in the Gaza "satellite" seat of the Palestinian parliament with two of the six women legislators who were elected on the Hamas list.
		As with the Jabaliya preschool, there is a strong contrast between the dust and chaos outside the school walls and the calm and order inside them.
