(Times of Israel) Avi Issacharoff - At least three Palestinian threats have become a recurrent ritual, repeating themselves every few months: 1) the resignation of Mahmoud Abbas from the presidency of the Palestinian Authority; 2) the resignation of top Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat; and 3) the dissolution of the PA. The probability that the PA will be dissolved is very low. The discussion in recent days has been mainly in the Israeli media, with little to no discourse in the Palestinian media. Abbas understands that dismantling the PA would lead to countless acts of violence, not only against Israel but also within Palestinian society. For Abbas, dissolving the PA security apparatus would increase Hamas' power and severely imperil every PA and Fatah official. Another important consideration is the future of the 150,000 PA workers and Fatah members, in the West Bank and in Gaza, who receive salaries each month.2014-04-22 00:00:00Full Article
