Abu Mazen give an interview to Newsweek, with this interesting tidbit about why he resigned (hat tip: Imshin):

Some might say that a national leader must be able to withstand criticism and incitement.
That's true. But when they try to kill—I felt that someone was going to kill.

To kill you?
Yeah. Or to cause bloodshed within Fatah itself.

How many of these things were instigated by Chairman Arafat?
I wouldn't want to mention anyone by name. But I'll give you something to understand: I don't have any relationship with the chairman from the resignation to this day.

When you're in Ramallah, you don't meet with him?
I live in Ramallah and he's 100 meters away. I don't go to him, I don't meet with him, I don't have any relations with him.
