Some U.S., Israeli and Arab officials see Palestinian Mohammed Dahlan as a viable leader of an interim security force

Importantly, Hamas has softened its opposition to Dahlan, indicating to mediators in recent weeks that it could accept him as part of an interim solution to help end the war.

“I really want Hamas to leave us alone,” said Waheed, 37. “If Dahlan is the one to replace them, then he is welcome.”

Watering down the meaning of the word strongman. Apparently this guy advocates for a one-state-solution of Palestinians and Israelis living together with equal rights under a democratic government. That is not a strongman position.
