    Taking active steps towards resolving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict may reward the Palestinian Authority in more ways than one, according to a report in the New York Times Thursday. The United States together with European and Arab countries have proposed a potential doubling of pecuniary aid to the struggling Palestinian Authority, should the PA prove it are cooperating towards reducing the bloody conflict between the two nations, American and Palestinian officials told the New York Times. The aid package would amount to $6 billion to $8 billion, to be allotted over four years, contingent on smooth chairmanship elections on January 9...

    Three polls published Monday revealed growing support for jailed terrorist Marwan Barghouti, revealing a desire of the Arab public for a less moderate-appearing PLO president. Two polls showed that Barghouti is tied with PLO Fatah candidate Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen), and a third poll put Abbas in the lead. Abbas held an overwhelming lead in the polls towards the Jan. 9 election until Barghouti last week announced his candidacy. The Fatah party Monday threatened to expel Barghouti from the movement if he doesn't drop out of the race, but his strength will pressure the PA to put on a more...

    (IsraelNN.com) In this evening’s press conference held in France, PA Foreign Minister Dr. Nabil Shaath admitted Yasser Arafat is in a deep coma and is no longer expected to recover, explaining he now is suffering from intercranial bleeding. Shaath added that doctors reported to him that Arafat’s brain, heart, and lungs continue to operate, so “he is not dead”. He added that as Muslims, they do not believe in euthanasia and therefore, there is no discussion of “unplugging Arafat”, adding at this points, “it depends on his body’s ability”. He called thoughts of euthanasia “ridiculous”. Shaath went on the explain...

    Video shops in Gaza are selling a new DVD featuring the recent beheading of an American in Iraq. The gruesome video, priced at NIS 15, is apparently selling like hotcakes. "When I saw the DVD I started to worry about our future," said Muhammad, a young Gazan father of three who works for the Palestinian Authority. It was so cruel. I couldn't watch. I only looked at the still shots." Muhammad bought the DVD "out of curiosity," he said. "Of course I did not bring it home to my children. I watched it in my office." The clip starts with...

    The United States believes that Syria has acquired centrifuges for the enrichment of uranium through the network of Pakistani nuclear chief Abdul Kader Khan, the Canadian news website Middle East Newsline reported Thursday. According to the report, the US intelligence community has assessed that Syria became a costumer of smuggled Pakistani P1 nuclear centrifuges in 2001 through Firas Tlas, the son of Syrian Defense Minister Mustafa Tlas. Khan was arrested by Pakistani intelligence officers in January 2004 and admitted to secretly selling nuclear know-how to Iran. Iraq and North Korea are believed to have been clients of Pakistani nuclear scientists....

    Palestinian terrorists shot and killed a 15-year-old Arab boy in Beit Hanoun this morning, after he and his family objected to the placing of Kassam rocket launchers outside their home. The boy and other members of his family, seeing the terrorist cell arrive, "greeted" them with sticks and stones in an attempt to banish them. The terrorists responded with gunfire that killed the teenager and also wounded five others. After the murder, the terrorists loaded up their weapons and fled the scene. PA sources first accused Israeli forces of having killed the boy. The Israeli Defense Forces recently circulated an...

    WASHINGTON - Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat is blocking an investigation to find the killers of three American security guards attacked in the Gaza Strip last year, a senior U.S. official said on Tuesday. The United States has persistently complained the Palestinians have failed to investigate fully the bombing of a U.S. diplomatic convoy but officials had not directly blamed Arafat for the handling of the probe before. "There has been no satisfactory resolution of this case. We can only conclude that there has been a political decision taken by the chairman [Arafat] to block further progress in this investigation,"...

    The Palestinian Authority is appealing to the international community to put pressure on Israel to end its massive military operation in the southern Gaza Strip, Palestinian Negotiations Affairs Minister Saeb Erekat said Tuesday. The Arab League, responding to Palestinian appeals, convened Tuesday in Cairo and said the Israeli operation was aimed at "ethnic cleansing." The League also said it would start taking judicial steps to bring Israelis to trial for war crimes. After a day of military build-up and the isolation of Rafah from the rest of the Gaza Strip, the Israel Defense Forces launched an operation early Tuesday in...

    The Palestinian Authority has released funds it froze in August last year belonging to Hamas-affiliated charity organizations. Nine months after the money was sequestered by the PA, it was transferred over the weekend to the organizations' bank accounts in the Gaza Strip. Official records show the organizations provide aid for tens of thousands of needy Palestinians in the Strip. Palestinian sources on Monday said the transfer was a one-time gesture to help the families cope with the harsh economic conditions in the Palestinian areas. They said it did not indicate a general release of the millions of dollars belonging to...

    The United States on Sunday repeated a $5 million offer for information on those responsible for a Gaza Strip bombing that killed three Americans last October - the latest sign of U.S. disappointment with the Palestinian investigation into the attack. The offer, published in two Palestinian newspapers, was made due to the Palestinian Authority's slow-moving investigation into the bombing, an American official said on condition of anonymity. Palestinian authorities still haven't charged anyone in the attack, which killed three American security guards. It was at least the third time this year the Americans have publicized the reward, another U.S. official...
