Sharon to Meet Abbas Soon
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - Prime Minister Ariel Sharon is expected to invite the new PA leader to a meeting once the election results are final. Israel will ask Abbas to immediately renew security coordination and deploy PA security personnel at Gaza locations used to fire mortar shells and Kassam rockets, senior diplomatic officials said Sunday. If these steps are taken, the officials added, Israel will respond in kind. At the same time, there is concern in Jerusalem that rather than taking the minimal steps to fight the terror, Abbas will instead redouble efforts to reach a cease-fire (hudna) with the terrorist organizations, something Israel fears will be ineffective.
