An unprecedented report reveals a strategic alliance between Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and Mohammed Dahlan, a former Fatah strongman, aimed at establishing an electoral coalition. The primary objective of this bloc is to dismantle the rule of Palestinian Authority Chairman Abu Mazen. The report suggests this coalition intends to legitimize terrorism and present Israel with a complex security challenge.
