Former Israeli Official Proposes PA Thwart Hamas by Giving Welfare
[Ha'aretz] Barak Ravid - The PA must establish a strong welfare system in the West Bank to gain more support than Hamas, according to a plan formulated by Rani Loewenstein, a former senior Israeli official who served as Israel's main liaison with the Palestinians on economic matters over the last five years. He predicts a Hamas takeover in the West Bank within two years if the Fatah-dominated PA does not provide sufficient welfare to the population there.
