#1 "They know that we are in a very critical position and that clashing with any Palestinian party under the presence of the (Israeli) occupation is an issue that will present many problems for us," said the spy chief, a cousin of veteran leader Yasser Arafat. "The Americans have started recently to understand our position and I expect that this crisis will also be resolved," he said.

This is nothing more than buying time, hoping that after a suitable interval (preferably a long one), this whole matter will be swept under the rug and everybody will "move on".

The three American security guards were killed in an ambush in October when a bomb planted on a main road leading to Gaza City exploded under their vehicle in a diplomatic convoy. As a result, U.S. officials have been banned from visiting Gaza and U.S. aid programs have been hampered.

If these guys "can't" pick the guilty parties up, then U.S. aid programs should be more than hampered; more like DISCONTINUED. The Palestinians are nothing but hopeless basket cases, and the best course of action would be to detach ourselves from them ASAP.
