Israel Fears Fatah Conference May Undermine PA Prime Minister
[Jerusalem Post] Yaakov Katz, Herb Keinon and Rebecca Stoil - Israel is concerned that the Fatah conference in Bethlehem will end with decisions that can undermine the authority of PA Prime Minister Salam Fayyad, defense officials warned on Tuesday. Israel's concern is that the new leadership will not only be more radical but would want to see one of its own - a member of Fatah - as prime minister of the PA. Fayyad "has played a key role in Israeli and Palestinian efforts to improve the quality of life in the West Bank," one senior defense official said.
