    The paper provides one of the ingredients needed for a proof of the following theorem: A simple \(K^*\)-group \(G\) of finite Morley rank and of even type is an algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic~2 (the Cherlin-Zilber Conjecture within an inductive setting in the even type case). The main result: If \(P\) is a parabolic subgroup of \(G\) then \(F^*(P)=O_2(P)\). Here a parabolic subgroup is a definable connected subgroup containing a standard Borel subgroup, where a standard Borel subgroup is a maximal definable connected solvable subgroup which contains the connected component of a Sylow 2-subgroup; \(F^*(P)\) is the generalized Fitting subgroup of \(P\); and \(O_2(P)\) is the maximal normal 2-subgroup of \(P\).
