This will be very interesting to watch. I never believed that Yassir Arafat truly wanted a Palestinian State. Why would he trade the power of being the world's professional martyr for the annoyance of actually having to run something? His position was always better on the outside.
I think Hamas is probably more surprised than anybody. Strapping on the suicide bomber belt is easier than running an actual country.
