PA Weakness and the Hamas-Iran Reconstitution Drive

Prof. Kobi Michael addresses a major security operation in the West Bank, interpreting it as evidence of the ongoing weakness of the Palestinian Authority (PA) and the continued existence of terror infrastructure and motivation in the region.

He warns that the situation is very fragile, characterizing it as a continuing terror war where Hamas’s external leadership and the Iranians are actively trying to strengthen Hamas infrastructure within the West Bank, particularly as Hamas weakens in the Gaza Strip.
