(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel and Arnon Regular - Israel has approved the deployment of hundreds of armed PA police in all West Bank cities to crack down on crime. Uniformed personnel are authorized to carry assault rifles in all cities except Hebron, where they will be limited to small arms. In Tulkarm, which is under Palestinian security control, some 5-10 men out of a list of 50 wanted men reportedly turned in their weapons. "There are no scenes of piles of weapons brought in by wanted men, but rather the acceptance of the wanted men, with their weapons, into the Palestinian police," a Palestinian source said. Israel has warned the PA that it will not tolerate the use of the weapons against its forces. "We have no illusions that [the Palestinian police] will prevent terror," an IDF source said. "Therefore, we are continuing to operate in the cities as necessary. But an armed presence brings back some law and order, and deters some of the armed gangs, and that is also important." 2005-05-16 00:00:00Full Article
