Well-Meant Intentions on the Way to Hell

The New York Times reports that:-

Barely a week in office, the Palestinian prime minister from Hamas faces not only diplomatic isolation and a bankrupt treasury but also an intense rivalry with Fatah, the longtime Palestinian power, over control of the heavily armed security agencies.


Heavily armed?

This is what Menachem Begin had intended:-

A strong local police force will be established


(see here, too)

Well, the road to hell is paved with well-meaning intentions.
