(Ha'aretz) Ze'ev Schiff - Abu Mazen has not carried out the reform in the Palestinian security services. According to his agreement with Israel, the wanted men in each city evacuated by the Israel Defense Forces must hand over their weapons and register with the PA, and the IDF will stop chasing them. An ostensibly simple agreement, but Abu Mazen is unable, or unwilling, to implement it. In Israel there is a willingness to evacuate additional Palestinian cities in the West Bank, but there is a fear that such a step will open the door for lethal attacks in Israel. PA Prime Minister Ahmed Qurei (Abu Ala) is subverting Abu Mazen and is acting to trip him up. Senior figures surrounding Abu Mazen are compartmentalizing him, reporting to him in a distorted manner, or not carrying out his instructions. Abu Mazen is standing in place, and not only in relations with Israel, but also on the issue of the necessary reform of the divided Fatah organization. In internal discussions, Hamas leaders spend a great deal of time dealing with the question of how to act after their victory in the upcoming elections.2005-04-01 00:00:00Full Article
