Israel to Ease Daily Palestinian Life, Continue Pinpoint Actions
(Ha'aretz) Aluf Benn and Arnon Regular - In response to American demands that Israel move forward with confidence-building measures, Israel will open up traffic routes and ease day-to-day conditions for the Palestinians, steps that were agreed upon Wednesday by Prime Minister Sharon and Defense Minister Mofaz. However, Israel will not hand over security control in other West Bank towns to the PA until it becomes clear the PA is acting against the terrorist infrastructure in towns already under its jurisdiction. Sharon has made it clear to the Americans that Israel will not move ahead with the road map as long as the PA does not fulfill its obligations and fails to disband the terrorist organizations.
