Arafat Targets Critics
(Ha'aretz) Arnon Regular - Senior officials in Arafat's bureau have been extremely busy in recent weeks preparing files documenting apparent corruption among his political opponents in the PA and in the Fatah organization. One such report relates to former minister of information and prominent Arafat critic Nabil Amr, who was shot by unknown gunmen a few months ago and had his leg amputated. The purpose of the report clearly seems to be to broadcast a message to senior PA officials, and to show them the fate awaiting those who fall out of favor with Arafat. Amr, who is in Germany undergoing medical treatment, said in response that anyone who reads the report understands that it was written by people with bad intentions, and that its conclusions were written in advance, even before the investigation.
