You may not have heard it here first, but you have certainly heard it here again and again; there will NEVER be peace in the Middle East. Anyone who says differently is either a liar or a fool. TGO

RAMALLAH, Palestinian Territories (AFP) – Israeli troops overnight arrested four Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, among them a former intelligence officer, a Palestinian security official said Wednesday.

The army arrested Shadi Amwasi, 30, who is also a member of president Mahmud Abbas’ Fatah party, in Ramallah and searched his home for weapons. The three others were arrested in neighbouring villages, the official said.

The military confirmed it arrested “four wanted Palestinians” without providing further details.

The Western-backed Palestinian Authority has long objected to Israeli incursions in Area A, parts of the occupied territory where it enjoys limited self-rule, including its administrative seat in Ramallah.

The military says it has the right to operate anywhere in the territory.
