OK let's try this one. You defend the Palestinians and claim they want peace? How come Arafat refuses to give his own PM a minimum of power to do the same? Could it be that, as I've constantly posted, it's easy to be critical but hard to offer anything that will bring peace, particularly when it involves ceding control of the estimated 1 billion that Arafat has pilfered from his own people. Palestinian PM Says He Won't Keep Job Palestinian Prime Minister Tells Ruling Party He Does Not Intend to Keep the Job, Officials Say The Associated Press JERUSALEM Oct. 12 — Interim Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia told the ruling Fatah party Sunday he does not intend to seek the job when a new Cabinet is formed in three weeks, Fatah officials said. Speaking after a meeting of the Fatah central committee, Qureia would only say that a new government would be formed in three weeks "with a new prime minister, too." Qureia currently heads an emergency Cabinet appointed a week ago by Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. Over the past week, though, he has clashed bitterly with Arafat about who would be the new security chief and whether Arafat had the power to appoint a Cabinet by decree. On Sunday, Qureia told Fatah officials he did not intend to stay on as prime minister when the emergency government's term expires in three weeks. If Qureia follows through, he would be the second Palestinian prime minister to give up the job since last month. His predecessor, Mahmoud Abbas, resigned last month after just four months in office, caught between Israeli demands for a crack down on militants and Arafat's refusal to give up any power over security forces.
