#1 The object of this exercise may be to "prevent rocket fire and other attacks on Israeli towns", but the various terrorist groups like Islamic Jihad, Hamas, and the like still exist. That doesn't even take into effect whether the Paleo "police" could or would actually have an effect.

Abbas has been holding talks with leaders of militant groups in Gaza since Tuesday, and his aides said he was edging closer to a truce deal with them.

This truce is the sign of a "leader" with no real authority or power.

#4 I assume Abbas figures if the police are on duty they can't fire rockets at the same time.

#5 I figure they're there to give the boys directions in case they get lost.

#6 Someone has to make sure that bombers have the right away. Someone has to clear traffic so that rocket launchers can escape to the hinterland.
