Conflict-Weary Nablus Residents Disgusted with Armed Gangs
(Ha'aretz)Arnon Regular - Part of the population in Nablus is growing disgusted with the plethora of armed gangs. Internal terror - old vendettas, extortion, fights over donations reaching the city - has also worsened. Some people still support the organizations, but others are fed up with their activities. The IDF's Civil Administration even reported receiving phone calls Sunday from Nablus residents who expressed satisfaction at Saturday's killing of the seven wanted men. Naef Abu Sharh, one of the men killed Saturday, used to receive a salary from Arafat's presidential guard, Force 17. But in recent weeks, he complained that the PA had stopped supporting him and other wanted men.
