#1 "Israel Radio reported that Arafat and Abbas are considering a compromise government list that would not include Dahlan." He's replaceable as long as the rest of the list pisses Arafish off just as much

General rule for Abu Mazen - Arafat negotiations - if Arafat insists on X, its a sure sign giving in on X will stop peace. Arafat wants Dahlan out so he can retain control over security - if Arafat retains control over security, whole thing is doomed, whater else Arafat gives up on. If Abu Mazen gives in on Dahlan, I will be very concerned, and will join the ultrahawks in their skepticism of Abu Mazen. West has to press Abu Mazen to stand firm.
