Palestinian Authority Arab terrorist groups have stepped up their attacks in Judea and Samaria as pressure over Israel-PA negotiations increases and rumors swirl regarding an impending move to direct talks.
Two IDF soldiers and a civilian woman were wounded in rock-throwing attacks in the past week. In other such attacks, vehicles were damaged but the passengers escaped injury. In one such case, a driver escaped unscathed despite being targeted by a barrage of Molotov cocktails; the vehicle was damaged.
PA officials recently admitted that Chairman Mahmoud Abbas is under intense pressure to agree to direct negotiations with Israel. Abbas has demanded that Israel freeze construction east of the 1949 armistice line and agree to use the line as the base for negotiations on the borders of a PA state. Only when Israel concedes will the PA begin talks, he says.
This week, two reports appeared to suggest that Israel is under pressure to agree to Abbas's demands. On Friday, the London-based Arabic daily Al-Hayyat reported that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has agreed to give Abbas 90% of Judea and Samaria for the establishment of a PA state, and to forcibly expel the roughly 50,000 Jews living in the area.
Netanyahu's office has denied the report.
Meanwhile, Reuters reported that Abbas may agree to direct talks if Netanyahu agrees to a PA state with borders based on the 1949 armistice line – an agreement that would leave the PA with all of Judea and Samaria and much of Jerusalem, including the Old City and other historically Jewish neighborhoods such as Shiloach (Silwan) and Shimon Hatzaddik.
The Reuters report was based on a letter written by European Union representative Catherine Ashton. Ashton allegedly said that Abbas would agree to direct talks next week if Israel gives in to his demand.

What good comes out of PA? NOTHING! Just nuke the whole place and start over!
When they forced them to leave Gaza all the PA did was burn things and tear them up. They could have done alot with what they were given. They destroyed it all. They will do the same if they give them more. PA does nothing but destroy and try to blame others.
I agree the Palestinian Authority (so-called) does not represent the Palestinian people at all. They appear to work directly against the best interest of the Palestinian people.
However, nuking the innocent people of Palestine is a ridiculous thought and terribly criminal.
These are real people with real children trying to survive in a world where their leaders collude with the leaders of Israel to create endless war.
They are at war , war is never a good thing. The goal of war is to win , not to lose. I also believe they should blast the crap out of them , we know that innocent people will die , but war is sad.
They have been fighting for thousands of years. Japan cooled down after we hit them.

Listen to yourself.
How would you feel if just one member of your family were killed in a war? The people who start wars never fight in them. They don't care about the dead. They are ruthless.
You are not ruthless. You are a regular person who has bought their idea of life. Life does not have to be that way.
