Much as he would like to throw the guerrillas out, Hussein no longer has the power even to hold them in check. Last month he dispatched 20 carloads of troops and police to order a guerrilla unit to leave the refugee camp at Karamah. When it arrived, the column was surrounded by machine-gun-toting commandos, quickly withdrew when the fedayeen commander delivered a matter-of-fact announcement: "You have three minutes to decide whether you leave or die." The rest of the Arab world has taken up the fedayeen with nearly unanimous vigor. Iraq and Syria offer training programs...
