Aksa Martyrs Brigades to be integrated into Fatah "institutions"


It's unclear which way to interpret this - whether al Aksa is taking over some part of Fatah, or Fatah is absorbing al Aksa because al Aksa was formed for the intifadah as the Fatah answer to Hamas' al Hassim brigades, and the intifadah is over. I would guess the second. Of course the separation between PA and terrorists was always a convenient fiction, I should have thought that goes without saying by now.

BTW, Barry Rubin has an excellent article in the ME Forum mag summing up the post-Arafat state of Palestinian politics,

After Arafat
meforum.org

which I recommend highly.
