A Who's Who of Palestinian Corruption
(Ha'aretz) Bradley Burston - A cement company owned by Prime Minister Ahmed Qurei’s family is alleged to have sold large quantities of cement for use in construction of West Bank settlements as well as for wall segments of the separation fence. Chief of Palestinian Police in the Gaza Strip Ghazi Jabali is accused of stealing as much as $22 million in PA monies. Foreign Minister Nabil Shaath is suspected of having used his position to increase his sizable wealth and business interests across the Arab world. Muhammad Dahlan, the sharply tailored former national security chief, recently purchased the luxurious home of onetime Gaza City mayor and wealthy landowner Rashid Shawwa.
