Meer aanwijzingen dat Hamas probeert om een coup te plegen op de Westoever. Eerder al bleek dat Hamas probeerde aanslagen op PA functionarissen te plegen.
Het feit dat Fatah, en niet Israel, deze coup en aanslagen verijdelt is een goed teken, maar de vraag is wel of Fatah daar zonder Israelische aanwezigheid op de Westoever toe in staat was geweest.

Nablus - Ma'an Exclusive - The Palestinian Authority has in recent months seized arms, explosives and millions of dollars in cash from Hamas, a PA official said on Sunday.
The official, security forces spokesperson Adnan Ad-Damiry, told Ma'an that its West Bank officers have discovered "large amounts of explosives and bombs in the districts of Nablus, Hebron and Qalqiliya."
He also alleged that Hamas intended to use the weapons "heinously" against PA forces.
"PA forces discovered apartments, which Hamas purchased to use as operating centers between the West Bank and Gaza Strip to implement orders to kidnap officials," he said, adding that the movement intended to "implement other plans that threaten Palestinian security and safety."
The official claimed the Fatah-allied PA had also "seized large amounts of money [8.5 million US dollars] entering the Palestinian territories illegally," cash he said would be used to maintain Hamas' own military forces in the West Bank.
Ad-Damiry also dismissed the frequent Hamas accusations that PA forces participate in politically motivated arrest campaigns, saying that "if a tsunami hit the West Bank, Hamas would accuse the PA of being responsible for it." He said PA forces only arrest Hamas affiliates on suspicion of smuggling weapons or money.
"We will continue our work until Hamas stops planning and implementing its coup" in the West Bank, "as it did in the Gaza Strip," the spokesperson insisted, calling the PA's ongoing operations against the Islamic movement a "duty to fight all illegal phenomena and maintain Palestinians' security and safety."
Meanwhile, Palestinian Authority security forces detained four Hamas affiliates in the West Bank on Saturday evening, according to the Islamic movement.
In a statement received by Ma'an, Hamas said that the detentions took place in Qalqiliya, Tulkarem and Nablus, pointing out that a woman was also among those arrested.
Hamas accused PA forces of detaining and torturing women in the West Bank, calling on the PA to release the women at a minimum, and to put an end to the issue of political arrests once and for all.
A Hamas spokesperson called on human rights organizations, Egyptian officials and party leaders to halt this "manipulation of the Palestinians' fate," and urged relevant parties to expose "the truth of the detaining of women and political arrests in the West Bank."
