Joe O'Reilly (Fine Gael)

I was at a different briefing on the situation in Gaza another day and the experts there were telling us that there was general anarchy now, that the whole - what might appear to be quasi-democratic - structures are completely broken, governance is broken down, there is anarchy in the streets and everywhere else, and all sorts of local people taking over control arbitrarily. What would Mr. Whyte say to that? What is the power of Hamas within Gaza now? Does Mr. Whyte sense it is diminished? Does he sense they have a handle on people or how does he sense where they are at now?
