They said up to 25 percent of the 60,000 officers were either fictitious or no longer worked for the security forces. PLC Economic Committee chairman Azmi Shueibi said $350 million has been channeled every month to pay the salaries of a reported 60,000 PA security personnel.

First there were all the CIA guys and now the Pentagon bods, the latest Maj. Gen. Keith Dayton,
Pentagon�s new choice for the post of United States Security Coordinator, Israel-Palestinian Authority,

The coordinator�s job is twofold: assisting the Bush administration in its efforts to encourage Israel�s government to stay on track with its promised disengagement from the Gaza Strip and northern West Bank, while at the same time supporting new Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas in his efforts to keep a lid on internal extremist elements and create a stable Palestinian state.

Note that the Israelis have be kept on track, those inscrutable joooooos, but the Palis just have keep a lid on things.
For how long?
