2007-07-26 Israel-Palestine-Jordan

Palestinian security chief Mohammad Dahlan resigned on Thursday, six weeks after his forces were routed by Hamas Islamists in the Gaza Strip, two senior officials told Reuters. Dahlan, 46, made the request on medical grounds, a senior official in his office. President Mahmound Abbas accepted his resignation, another senior Palestinian official said. Dahlan was heavily criticized within Abbas's secular Fatah faction for the failure of his security forces to prevent Hamas seizing control of the Gaza Strip last month. During the Gaza fighting, in which more than 100 people were killed, Dahlan was outside his native Gaza, sidelined by surgery on both knees which was performed in Germany.

I don't remember seeing that news...

Knee-capped? Is the IRA training Hamas?
