Can Dahlan Control Gaza?
(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel - What entity will take responsibility for affairs in the Gaza Strip? The current possibilities range from the PA to Mohammed Dahlan as a semi-independent leader to Hamas - or the possibility of general anarchy. Many Israeli security officials pin their hopes on Dahlan, even though he failed to deliver the goods and promote security during the hudna last summer. Israeli security officials are impressed by the way Dahlan and his men have turned his native Khan Yunis into "the independent republic of Dahlan." Officers in the IDF Central Command say that Dahlan is once again sending armed followers to assess control in Bethlehem and Hebron.
