Arrest

His view of reform

Stop what he described as the policy of "insults, accusations and treason" through the media, especially satellite channels.
He called on Fatah leaders to immediately stop talking about dividing the movement into “inside and outside,” “loyalists and disloyalists,” and “a revolutionary nationalist current” and “a traitorous, collaborating current.”
The reason for the collapse of Fatah in Gaza is due to factors, the first of which is Fatah’s “cliques, division, and failure to learn lessons from the movement’s failure in the second legislative elections and the procrastination in holding the sixth conference in ten years,” and the second is Israeli.
