Further Cell Divisions?

Fatah leader hints at party split Middle East Jerusalem Post: "As more than 2,000 delegates gathered in Bethlehem for the long-delayed Sixth Fatah Congress, the leader of Fatah in Bethlehem warned of a split in the party if the leadership denies a role to the younger generation who launched a wave of violence against Israel in the second intifada."

The article discusses the possibility of a third Intifada and they give another illustrative citation:

"We can't say that the old people are expired," he said. "We can't say this because we are still in need, you know, for their wisdom and their experience. However, we will like also to see the young people participate in this movement and have their role, their active role."

Mona Sahlin is apparently vising the congress held in Bethlehem. It would be interesting to read about her assessment.
