(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel - Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz and Mohammed Dahlan agreed Monday to set up a joint committee to deal with the cases of wanted men after a cease-fire is formally announced. The Shin Bet, which has frozen its hunt for wanted men, is recommending not to include Palestinians "with blood on their hands." According to the emerging arrangements, in both Gaza and the West Bank, Israel will agree not to harm wanted men who hand in their weapons to the PA, sign a commitment not to get involved in any more terror, remain in their home towns, and agree to monitoring by the PA security apparatus. If there is a deterioration in the security situation and agreements are violated, Israel will feel free to resume the hunt for the wanted men.
