Gaza part of Jihadist 'Crescent of Fire'
The current euphoria about the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza is misplaced and dangerous, writes Amir Taheri in the New York Post. "The most conservative estimates put the number of mini-armies in Gaza at 22. To these must be added the PA's security force and police, which also operate as rival factions," Taheri continues. "For a total population of perhaps 1.2 million, Gaza is believed to have over 100,000 armed men. It is also the single biggest producer of 'volunteers for suicide-martyrdom' in the world. The worst-case scenario could make Gaza a magnet for Islamist jihadists, who appear determined to create 'a crescent of fire' from Iraq to Egypt."
