Palestinian officials give contradictory media statements
Senior Palestinian official Jibril Rajoub contradicted his colleague Saeb Erekat’s statements earlier in the week that the Palestinian Authority could be dissolved, raising questions over the PA’s communication strategy.
Observers of recent statements by senior Palestinian officials might be confused about the Palestinian strategy and likely reactions to Israeli and US political and financial restrictions.
Are Palestinians really going to dissolve their government or are they going to hold on to it? Will Palestinian security coordination with Israel continue or not? Will Palestinians resubmit their resolution to the UN Security Council or will they accept that the Security Council is a dead end so long as the United States is threatening its veto?
