Israel: Attack Proves Factions' Danger
(Jerusalem Post)Herb Keinon - Discussing the shooting attack against Mahmoud Abbas in Gaza, a senior Israeli government official said Sunday, "The real problem is the renegade groups, the extremists, all vying for power, who want a piece of the action and are being directed by Hizballah and Iran....Abu Mazen [Abbas] is going to have to take them on....The copout would be if he decides to negotiate and reach an agreement with these groups. If he succumbs to them, if he starts to negotiate with them, then he is in their hands and will be unable to change anything....Any future Palestinian leader will be unable to hide from them, and sooner or later will have to prove that he has the muscle to impose law and order."
