(Jerusalem Post)Khaled Abu Toameh - Some 100 Fatah activists demonstrated outside Arafat's compound in Ramallah on Wednesday, chanting slogans against PLO Secretary-General Mahmoud Abbas and former security minister Muhammad Dahlan, condemning them as U.S. "agents." "Dahlan, hey, hey, you are an agent of the CIA," the protesters shouted. One of the demonstration's leaders, Fadi, said the protest was aimed at sending a message to Abbas and Dahlan that the Palestinians won't allow them to succeed Arafat. Fatah leaflets distributed in the West Bank called on Palestinians to "liquidate all those involved in the plot to poison Arafat, who are most likely Israeli and American agents."
