No Israeli, American differences over siege on Arafat headquarters

Israeli political sources said that there are no differences in the views held by Israel and the US concerning the continued siege imposed on the Palestinian Authority headquarters in Ramullah.

The Hebrew language Israeli radio quoted these sources as saying on Wednesday that despite the criticism expressed by American officials because of the continued Israeli military siege against the headquarters of the Palestinian Authority, the matter represents just their personal views. The radio explained that unanimous stances and views always exist between Israel and the US administration, and this cannot be violated by Israeli military or political measures against the Palestinians.
