Mofaz: PA Must Halt Terror by End of September


(Jerusalem Post) Caroline Glick - In an interview Wednesday, Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz said, "At the end of September, there are three dates that come together. First, it will be three years since the start of the conflict; second, it will be three months since the start of the hudna; and third, it will be the end of Dahlan's 90-day plan to work against the terrorist infrastructures." At that point, he said, "We will have to tell the PA, 'Either you're going to take care of this or we are going to take care of this.'" Mofaz also warned that concessions to the PA are "reversible." "If tomorrow there is an attack, I can decide that we are going back into Bethlehem," he explained. "The PA has taken no action against [the terrorist organizations] or their infrastructures," he noted. "These organizations have to cease to exist as organizations." "The PA's dismantling of the terrorist infrastructure must come before we move ahead in any way in the [peace] process."
