PA Weaker Than Ever
(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel - It is clear that the "Gaza envelope" of nearby communities is vulnerable after the disengagement. Hamas can still strike at Sderot at will. Palestinian Authority security forces did not lift a finger to keep the rockets from being fired at the Negev. It is becoming increasingly clear that the lull during the month after the Israel Defense Forces withdrawal was the result of a strategic decision by the terror organizations, and not of improved coordination between the IDF and the PA. The authority of the PA is looking weaker than ever - almost pathetic.
