Push for Rule of Law in West Bank
(Christian Science Monitor)Ben Lynfield- Nabil Amr, a vocal critic of Arafat's monopoly on power, was warmly welcomed back to his village of Dura over the weekend after four months of treatment in a German hospital. Gunmen had shot him in July, leading to the amputation of part of his right leg. He immediately lashed out at the PA's failure to arrest anyone in the shooting and, more generally, the absence of daily security for Palestinian citizens. Two hundred and thirty Palestinians have been killed by other Palestinians during the intifada, not including alleged collaborators, according to the Palestinian Human Rights Monitoring Group. In none of the cases were the perpetrators brought to justice.
