-- Liberal Political Science Professor Dr. Shafiq Al-Ghabra penned
in moderate Arabic daily Al-Rai Al-Aam under the title "The
Situation in Palestine...Dangers of Civil War and Collapse of
Government" (10/4):

"The current situation requires the resignation of the HAMAS
government because a national unity government is priority number
one at this time. The national unity government must have a
dialogue with all the different factions within Palestine. Also, it
must carry out a dialogue with the international community to
reinvigorate the economy."

-- "Repairing the Palestinian House" was the title under which Abdul
Mohsen Mohamed Al-Hussainy commented in moderate Arabic daily
Al-Watan (10/4):

"This government has political conflicts with the president. This
government does not want to recognize Israel in spite of the Oslo
agreements, which set the foundation for mutual recognition and the
holding of comprehensive peace talks to establish two states --
Palestine and Israel."
