By Micah Halpern
Friday April 16, 2021 Elections for the Palestinian legislature are scheduled to take place on Thursday, May 22nd. Presidential elections are scheduled for July 31. Polls are telling us that Fatah, the ruling party of the Palestinian Authority and the PLO, is having a difficult time getting a majority or - even a plurality. The Palestinians will blame it on Israel. They will claim that because Israel is not permitting Palestinians residing in Jerusalem to vote, they cannot hold a true election. That of course is simply a smoke screen. It is a contrived excuse to save Fatah, with Abbas at its head, the embarrassment of losing. It really is a big deal. Losing this election would not just be an embarrassment – losing would mean the end of the Palestinian Authority and the end of Fatah as we know it. In the meantime there are several parties that are contenders in this election. If the elections take place there will be serious changes within the PA, if not a total implosion. The situation could certainly devolve into armed battle between factions. Read my latest book THUGS. It's easy. Just click.
