The most important recommendation are: 1. The us aids may be position or negative so we have to benefit from its advantages and pay more attention to its disadvantages as possible as security experiences which may be beneficial to the palestinian security man in his work to avoid its disadvantage which aims to change these departments to a tool in Israel hand to hit with it when ever it likes. 2. The necessary of the principle in the security department to a chieve the intended development. This has to be purely formal by the Palestinians not by for interference. 3. Politically speaking the Palestinian nationality has to search for new financial aids to get rid of Americans resections and pressures. These channels have to be alternatives to gain the financial aids such as seeking help from Russia for example not in particular. 4. The necessity of conducting more studies about the same subject which affects number of the Palestinian community members.
