« Pressure Abbas | Main | Voting out of Iraq » Rajoub Resigns
By Micah Halpern
Wednesday January 12, 2005 I've Been Thinking: Yesterday's resignation by Jabril Raboub is extremely significant. He was the national security advisor in the PA, formerly the head of security in the West Bank under Arafat. I have met him several times. This resignation sends out a message: The downside is --- this part of the world likes a strong man. He lends stability. He knocks heads. He provides order. His reputation precedes him. He is feared. A new person, an outsider or a mid level person, will not be able to achieve those ends easily. Certainly, not immediately. And in this part of the world, order rules. 4 June 2017 12:14 PM in Thoughts
