Bush pushed for an election as he wanted to have solved the middle east situation before his presidency was over, against both Israel and PAs wishes. Then Hamas won and Bush again pushed PA to do a coup which failed and PA was kicked out of Gaza.

Interesting. I don't remember the Bush involvement but it's quite possibly true.

The Wikipedia article does not mention this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1996_Palestinian_general_elect... but that doesn't mean anything given the current sorry state of that site, and this article supports this idea: https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2023/10/was-hamas-electe...

This is relevant to the coup: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/mar/04/usa.israelandt...

Thanks for the extra colour here.
