If it appears that the withdrawal will proceed and Sharon can assemble a government to implement it, the Palestinian side will then face a major challenge. Will it be able to put together an effective governmental authority to rule the Gaza Strip, or will that area dissolve into bloody battles among Palestinian factions and a staging area for attacks into Israel that will bring reprisal raids?
如果撤离会得以实施且沙龙有能力组建一个政府来实施该计划，那么巴勒斯坦方面就会面临一个巨大的挑战。他们有能力组建一个政府性的机构去管理加沙地带吗？抑或该地区会陷入巴勒斯坦血腥的派系斗争之中并成为发动会招致以色列报复性打击的恐怖袭击的基地呢？
