(Ynet News) Alex Fishman - PA officials have realized that Hamas, which wishes to bring about the PA's collapse, is behind the recent terror wave. That is why the Temple Mount issue, which was the greatest motive for the violence, has suddenly disappeared from the PA's discourse in the territories. PA leaders are not encouraging violence as much and are not inciting as much.
