Fatah Official Survives Palestinian Assassin in Gaza - Khaled Abu Toameh
Efforts to resume coalition talks between Fatah and Hamas suffered a major setback on Wednesday when an attempt was made to assassinate senior Fatah leader Abu Ali Shaheen in Gaza. Shaheen was moderately wounded when unidentified gunmen shot him shortly after he left a local radio station where he had strongly criticized Hamas in an interview. Shaheen recently staged a protest in the streets of Gaza City in which he carried a placard condemning Hamas' executive force as a "black militia responsible for intimidation and terror."
