[Jerusalem Post] Herb Keinon - The involvement of Palestinian security forces in the murder of Israelis in terrorist attacks will be raised when Prime Minister Olmert meets President Bush next week, according to Israeli diplomatic officials. PA security forces were responsible for Friday's murder in the Hebron Hills of off-duty soldiers David Rubin and Ahikam Amihai, and for the murder in November of Ido Zoldan near Kedumim. "There are rogue, extremist elements inside the Fatah machine and the Palestinian security apparatus who have been responsible for not one or two, but a series of attacks," said Olmert's spokesman Mark Regev. "If this [diplomatic] process is going to succeed, the Palestinians must put their security house in order," Regev said. Bush is scheduled to arrive next Wednesday afternoon, and leave on Friday.
