Israel and Thomas Friedman impressed with the Fath gangs
"For the first time, I’ve heard top Israeli military officers say these new Palestinian troops are professional and for real...“Our people need to see we are governing ourselves and are not simply subcontractors for Israeli security,” Prime Minister Fayyad told me." So Thomas Friedman is pleased with the performance of the Palestinian collaborationist army. Note that as long as the collaborationist army acts on behalf of Israel, there will be no Western complaints about shootings, beatings, torture, and bullying by the collaborationist army. Notice that Friedman's "economic approach" to the Palestinian problem is exactly that of Netanyahu. (thanks Olivia)
