Exiled Palestinian strongman Dahlan touts Gazan future without Hamas or Abbas
Pay attention to Meeeee!!!
[IsraelTimes] An independent Paleostinian leader backed by Arab peacekeepers could oversee the reconstruction of Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
after the war between Israel and Hamas
...the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
, a prominent Paleostinian exile says.

Mohammed Dahlan, the former Paleostinian Authority Gaza security chief, tells The New York Times

...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...

that in his vision, "the leaders of Egypt, Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
and the Emirates are open to supporting processes that are part of efforts leading to a Paleostinian state."

The new Paleostinian leader would push PA President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas
...aka Abu Mazen, a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial. While no Yasser Arafat, he has his own brand of evil, just a little more lowercase....
aside to a ceremonial role, and could invite countries like the UAE and Saudi Arabia to send in troops and pay for a reconstruction of the Strip, says Dahlan, who many think may be eyeing the job for himself.

But Israel would have to agree to a Paleostinian state: "The main Arab countries are really very keen to settle this conflict. Not the war, the whole conflict."

"No Abbas, no Hamas," says the former Fatah strongman. "New people in charge of the Paleostinian Authority."

As he has been for decades, Dahlan is openly critical of Hamas: "Relying on people suffering isn’t leadership. The Paleostinian people want to live."

Dahlan’s security force operated in Gaza with an iron first after the Oslo Accords. A Gaza native, he was abroad when Hamas took over by force in 2007, and after moving to the West Bank he was expelled from Fatah in 2011 over accusations that he murdered Yasser Arafat.

His potential popularity as an alternative to Abbas has led to tensions with the Paleostinian leader. In 2014, Dahlan was convicted in absentia by the PA for defamation and embezzlement.

In the UAE, where he moved after being pushed out of Fatah, he has been a top adviser to President Mohammed Bin Zayed, and has also stayed somewhat active in Paleostinian politics. In 2017, he brokered a deal between Egypt and Hamas to keep fuel flowing to Gaza’s power plant, flexing his diplomatic muscle.

Representatives from six Arab countries met last week in Saudi Arabia to discuss a ceasefire and the future of Gaza.

Dahlan tells the New York Times that he is trying convince Hamas to step aside to let new Paleostinian leadership take over.
