Sources: Arafat approaching other PM candidates
RAMALLAH, West Bank (CNN) – Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat is starting to approach other candidates about becoming prime minister after failing to agree so far with Prime Minister-Designate Mahmoud Abbas on a list of new Cabinet members, Palestinian sources said Monday.

Arafat and Abbas are engaged in a power struggle, with the Palestinian Authority president seeking to retain as much control as he can, sources told CNN. Abbas – commonly known as Abu Mazen – has said he wants genuine authority in the job

It certainly does not appear as if Arafat's position is based upon a selfless analysis of what is best for the Palestinian people. His motivation appears to be what is in the best interest of Arafat and it is a blatant last attempt to hold on to his last vestiges of power.

If the Palestinean have free will to decide, all these puppets will be thrown out of Palestine and Hamas and Islamic Jihad will be running the show in Palestine.
