Complicated

PLO Arab puppet minister Ahmed Qureia has agreed to stay on..for now.

Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia reluctantly rescinded his resignation Tuesday at Yasser Arafat’s insistence, ending an immediate political crisis in the Palestinian government.

At a stormy cabinet meeting Qureia said he accepted Arafat’s rejection of his resignation, which he submitted three days ago amid growing chaos in Gaza ahead of a planned Israeli pullout and discontent over disorder in the Palestinian security services.

An acceptance of a rejection of a resignation? And I thought Israel was bureaucratic.
