PLO's Kaddoumi Challenges PA Leadership
(Ha'aretz)Arnon Regular - Farouk Kaddoumi, head of the PLO's political department, challenged the emerging Palestinian leadership of Mahmoud Abbas and Ahmed Qurei on Wednesday. "Anyone who thinks that I have abdicated my authority is mistaken," said Kaddoumi, one of the founders of Fatah, who is known to have many supporters both on Fatah's Central Committee and among Fatah activists in the territories. Kaddoumi, who did not return to the territories in 1993 because he opposed the Oslo Accords, said he thought Fatah, the main PLO faction, should wage guerrilla warfare against Israel.
