Dahlan: PA Finances, Arms Fatah Gangs
(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh- Former PA security minister Mohammed Dahlan on Thursday told the London-based Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper that at least two Fatah militias, the Jenin Martyrs Brigades and the Abu Rish Brigades, were financed and armed by the PA leadership, and that Arafat was aware of this. Dahlan accused veteran members of the Fatah Central Committee of stealing large sums of money: "There are people in the Fatah Central Council who are costing the Palestinians tens of thousands of dollars. Arafat knows who they are and they know themselves."
