Sharon Aide to Tell Rice "No Arms for PA"
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - Prime Minister Sharon's top adviser, Dov Weisglass, in Washington for a meeting Sunday with Secretary of State Rice, will argue against supplying the PA with weapons it says it needs. Rice, who is expected to return to Israel on August 15 to "chaperone" the disengagement process, has been pressing Israel to allow the resupply of arms and ammunition to the PA. Israel has argued that an infusion of arms and ammunition won't make a difference for Abbas until he takes the strategic decision to frontally take on his extremists.
