« Lebanon Needs Stability | Main | Lebanon's Chance » Postpone the Elections
By Micah Halpern
April 15, 2005 I've Been Thinking: Fatah wants to delay the next round of Palestinian Authority elections. As of now elections are scheduled for July. Why the delay? Because Fatah, the official ruling PA party, reasons that they would suffer a serious defeat. They fear, correctly, that Hamas and other Islamic parties would take over. Here is the dilemma: The Fatah/PA needs time to beat the negative reputation - it is the only way to win against the Islamists. If the PA and Fatah do not clean up their act their biggest fear will be realized. 4 June 2017 12:14 PM in Thoughts
