THE IRANIANS AND THE PALESTINIANS

The Iranians and the Palestinians
Interesting piece in Ma'ariv about Iran's attempt to take control of the Palestinian movement away from Arafat, and to cooperate with Al Qaeda. Debka has lately carried similar reports. Arafat invited Iran and Hizbullah into the Palestinian movement to provide it with resources and manpower, but now risks being usurped by his "allies." If massive new violence strikes the Middle East soon, it's likely to be because of aggressive Iranian actions.
