In the Arab-populated Jerusalem suburb Abu Dis, the IDF paid a return visit this morning to take over yet another office of the PA which was operating illegally in the capital. The IDF spokesman has not yet confirmed the operation, but Arab sources say that the IDF closed off the area of the PA Communications and Media Center, took over the building, ordered all employees outside, and began a search. Employees of the PA\'s Telecommunications Company will be given permission to re-enter their office in coordination with security officials on site. The Coordinator of Gov\'t Activities says, \"It is not the intention of the defense establishment to disrupt the commercial business activities of the company. It wishes to permit the normal management of economic-commercial related issues.\"



Israel closed down the Orient House in Jerusalem, along with nine other offices of the PA, early Friday morning, in a political retaliation to the massacre of 15 civilians and the injuring of 120 by an Arab suicide bomber on Thursday



Spokesperson for the Arab League Hanan Ashrawi was informed last night by Israel police that she will not be allowed to enter Jerusalem following her incitement of Arab demonstrators to violent acts against police on Saturday near the Orient House. In fact, when she reached a police checkpoint on her way to Jerusalem this morning, she was forced to make a U-turn and go home. Ashrawi condemned the limitation on her movements.
