Fatah Veterans Fear "Young Guard" Coup
[Jerusalem Post] Khaled Abu Toameh - Veteran Fatah officials in Ramallah warned over the weekend that some of their "young guard" colleagues were planning to stage a "coup" against the faction's leadership, amid preparations for Fatah's General Conference - the first since 1989. The power struggle between the old guard and young guard has cast doubts over Fatah's ability to hold the conference. Moreover, it has raised doubts as to Fatah's ability to pursue peace talks with Israel.
