Yep. There's a purge a-comin'.
|
Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat, freed after five months of an Israeli siege, plans to tighten control over his security agencies. Palestinian sources said Arafat plans to purge his agencies for officers felt to have been disloyal during his time trapped in the West Bank city of Ramallah. The sources said they don't expect Arafat to fire any of his security chiefs.
Their cars will explode, instead.
The exception could be Col. Jibril Rajoub, head of the West Bank security agency who has been accused of cooperating with Israel during its military offensive. Rajoub, with more than 2,000 agents under his control, had successfully resisted previous attempts by Arafat to replace him.
Looks like Jibril's for it this time. When Yasser pulls out his gat, he's gonna fire. Either that, or Jibril's boys'll get him first.
Arafat has ordered his security chiefs as well as Fatah commanders to reject any pressure by Israel for cooperation. The sources said Arafat insists that any request for cooperation from either Israel or other foreign security agencies be relayed for his approval.
"Intransigent" is the word that pops to mind.
