and solidarity was broken. It was
suddenly remembered that the
overwhelming majority of police-
men are "outsiders" who have
neither roots nor loyalties in the
community. Rather than being
cheered as protectors, the police
had metamorphosed into "worse
than the Jews."
Whether or not Mr. Arafat and
the Palestine Authority com-
mand a majority of public sup-
port in Gaza cannot be known
until elections are held. But
whether or not the authority
firmly controls the areas under
its jurisdiction is critical, not least
because few governments are
likely to seriously invest in a
regime threatened by chaos.
Even as matters stand, the
donor countries have transferred
only $67 million of the $700 mil-
lion promised for 1994. Most of
that has gone toward salaries and
operating costs of the Palestinian
police. The administrative ob-
stacle of "accountability" was pre-
sumably removed during
President Clinton's visit to Cairo,
when Mr. Arafat agreed to fulfill
the supervisory demands of the
donor states. But now donors
complain that Palestinians still
lack the legal, financial, admin-
istrative, banking and insurance
instruments to absorb large
amounts of money, while the ex-
asperated Palestinians ask how
they can create this financial in-
frastructure without funds to do
so.
Should the donor countries fur-
ther delay their payments — or
actually wiggle out of their com-
mitments — Israel will essen-
tially find itself, as Ha'aretz
columnist Gideon Samet color-
fully wrote, "alone in the dark
with the Palestinians."
Israel is limited in what it can
do to avoid that specter. If, as Mr.
Rubinstein believes, the main
weakness of the Gaza-Jericho
agreement is that it gives Pales-
tinians too little for too long, one
possibility is to reconsider the
timetable of the Israeli-Palestin-
ian Declaration of Principles. An-
other is to stop haggling over the
details of what Palestinians claim
are their internal affairs and
move appreciably closer to the
goal that Prime Minister Rabin
calls "strategic separation."
Either way, the massacre has
set off alarms in Israel. Gaza is
beginning to look like a throw-
back to the 1930s, when the
Arabs of Palestine tore their corn-
munity apart while fighting the
British and the Jews. The dan-
ger is that in focusing so strong-
ly on their anger, the Palestinians
may fail to notice that their "win-
dow of opportunity" is growing
smaller every day. And that if it
should.snap shut while they're
busy venting their frustrations
on one another — and on Israel
— it could take quite a long time
before anyone can pry it open
again. [11
