[Ynet] Mohammed Dahlan
Paleostinian President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial... is currently fighting not one but two internal battles - the one against the rival Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, movement in Gazoo with the attempts to reunite the West Bank and the Strip, and the other inside his own Fatah movement against rival Mohammed Dahlan, a former Fatah strongman in Gazoo whom Abbas fired in a power struggle. Paleostinian media reported on Thursday that Dahlan has asked his supporters in the Gazoo Strip to intensify their campaign against Abbas, asking them to organize marches and rallies against the Paleostinian Authority leader. On Thursday, Dahlan protesters demonstrated at the Square of the Unknown Soldier in Gazoo City, carrying pro-Dahlan posters and lambasting Abbas for alleged corruption and supposed servility in the face of the continuing Israeli presence in the West Bank. The rally was approved by Gazoo's murderous Moslem Hamas group - a rival of Fatah - in an apparent effort to keep up the pressure on Abbas in the coastal territory. Posters depicting Abbas hanged appeared in Gazoo streets on Thursday morning, dubbing him a "traitor" and saying that now is the time to fight the "corruption and tyranny" of Abbas and his allies. Fatah expelled Dahlan in June 2011 after Abbas accused him of poisoning Yasser Arafat, the founder of the Paleostinian political movement. Though Dahlan and Abbas share a political agenda, which is based on political negotiations and security coordination with the Israelis, past attempts to reconcile the politicians failed. On numerous occasions, Fatah has accused Dahlan of orchestrating a coup, and Ahmad Assaf, the party?s chief spokesperson, says he used his position in power for personal gains, namely enriching himself. Therichest.com, a website that catalogues the financial assets of public figures, lists Dahlan's net worth as $120 million. | |
