PA Arrests 30 Planning Attacks, In Bid To Calm West Bank

some 30 suspects over the last 72 hours thought to be planning terror attacks, primarily against settlers, as well as operatives involved in incitement against Israelis, senior Paleostinian sources told The Times of Israel on Thursday.

The wave of arrests was primarily focused in Hebron, where some 20 Paleostinians were detained, most of them Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, operatives. Additional arrests were made in Nablus and Ramallah.

According to the sources, several of the detainees sought to perpetrate attacks similar to those in the past few days, with weapons other than firearms for example, while others planned more complex attacks.

The arrests thwarted the attacks, the sources said, most of which were in the preliminary stages of planning.

The sources stressed that the arrests are part of the PAâs larger goal to restore calm in the area, and were done under the general directive of PA President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas

to prevent bloodshed and violence.

They added that Abbas clarified at every opportunity his opposition to violence and killing.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as well as Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman, and several other high-level politicians have repeatedly accused Abbas of fanning tensions in the capital and encouraging terror.

In past weeks, the official Fatah Facebook page has posted several calls for âdays of rageâ in the capital, as well as posts and cartoons hailing the attacks on Jewish Israelis.

called on Abbas to halt calls for âdays of rage,â in the wake of a deadly terror attack on a Jerusalem synagogue.

A senior Paleostinian official told The Times of Israel Thursday that incitement against Israel is running wild on social media, but claimed that this was not the case on the PAâs official media outlets. He said that several of the newly arrested detainees had been inspired to try to carry out attacks by the videos and clips circulating online.

The source added that it is clear that the defense establishment in Israel knows that Abbas is there to quiet tensions, rather than incite.

"This is apparent from the statements of Shin Bet head Yoram Cohen, but also from conversations we've had with the IDF and representatives from the Israeli defense establishment," he said.

Cohen said Tuesday that Abbas wasn't interested in calling for terror attacks, either overtly or covertly, in what was interpreted as a departure from the government's stance.

He later added, however, that "the recent incitement by Paleostinian Authority leaders, led by Abbas, on issues connected with Jerusalem and the Temple Mount, contribute to and affect the high level of violence in the field, especially in Jerusalem."
