'Certain Arab regimes' conspiring against the PA |
2002-07-11 |
A high-ranking PLO official has accused "certain Arab regimes" of colluding with the United States to topple the present Palestinian leadership. "I'm sorry to say that certain Arab regimes are conspiring with Washington against the Palestinian Authority," said Abdullah Al Hourani, who is in charge of the refugee portfolio. Hourani, who was speaking during a local radio program in Gaza Wednesday, didn't name the conspiring states. However, it widely believed that he meant Egypt and Jordan and maybe Saudi Arabia as well. Hourani also criticized the PA leadership, saying "there are many defects, shortcoming, mistakes and points of weakness." "Conspiracies! Plots! They're everywhere! They're comin' to get me, Ma!" |
