Israel has not let up on its demand that the Palestinian Authority arrest the 33 terrorists whose names appear on the list Israel provided a while ago - and in fact, the PA is making efforts to appear to be fulfilling this demand. It has already \"arrested\" 10 or 11 of them - i.e., they were asked if they agree to remain in detention, under better-than-usual conditions, for a period of a few weeks until the American and European pressure abates. So did a \"senior military source\" tell Ynet today. \"It\'s for the good of the Palestinian Authority,\" the terrorists were told. Some of the 33 were arrested \"on paper,\" and were released to their homes after being registered in the prison.
IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Sha’ul Mofaz told the Cabinet today that the PA is attempting to broadcast a message as if it has \"changed direction,\" but that in actuality, the changes are merely tactical. Mofaz said that Israel would continue its offensives for as long as the terrorism continues.
