Why do you post here when you know so little?When was the last time the Palestinian Legislative Council met?If the office of the President of the National Authority becomes vacant due to any of the above cases, the Speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council shall assume the powers and duties of the Presidency of the National Authority, temporarily for a period not exceeding (60) sixty days, during which free and direct elections to choose a new president shall take place in accordance with the Palestinian Election Law.It is funny that these propagandists never mention that the constitution lays out the procedures to replace a president.Mahmoud may be having some trouble fogging a mirror so the race is on to be the winner of the mini-caliphate’s presidential jet.
It’s probable that, as noted in the linked article, various islamo-street gangs will take up arms against the competing gangs. At stake is control of millions of welfare dollars and individual fortunes for the winners of the welfare fraud prize.
Hamas will not sit idly by as street warfare consumes the competing mini-caliphate. The ugly (and very messy), civil war that consumed the competing mini-caliphates more than a decade ago may seem mild by comparison.

The use of armed militias may be key to a contender’s success.

Such militias could be ordered to take control of symbolic government sites, like the headquarters of the Palestinian Authority presidency in Ramallah, or TV and radio stations. While the PA has not clashed with such militias until now, their presence is a looming one.
Of course the US and Israel will not allow that to happen. More of that illegal external interference.
More of your silly conspiracy theories.

A faux agency that exists only on letterhead for the convenience of an Islamic dictator.Before the US coup in 2007.When was the last time the Palestinian Legislative Council met?
Your usual retreat to conspiracy theories.
What coup?

The Gaza Bombshell
After failing to anticipate Hamas’s victory over Fatah in the 2006 Palestinian election, the White House cooked up yet another scandalously covert and self-defeating Middle East debacle: part Iran-contra, part Bay of Pigs. With confidential documents, corroborated by outraged former and current...
