Israel Prevents Arafat From Visiting Bethlehem
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel's government said on Sunday it would bar
Palestinian President Yasser Arafat from attending Christmas festivities in
Bethlehem because he had not done enough to clamp down on ``terror
organizations.''

Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's security cabinet decided in a telephone
vote to prevent Arafat from traveling to Bethlehem from his West Bank
headquarters in Ramallah, Sharon's office said in a statement.

``The cabinet made its decision based on the fact that Arafat is not acting
to dismantle Palestinian terror organizations and to prevent terror against
Israel from Palestinian Authority areas,'' the statement said.

Israel has said announcements by some Islamic militants that they were
suspending suicide attacks inside Israel were part of a secret deal with the
Palestinian Authority to avoid an unpopular crackdown on militants.

To reach Bethlehem in the southern West Bank Arafat, who has been confined to
Ramallah since an Israeli military offensive began two weeks ago, would need
to cross Israeli-ruled territory.

Arafat told Voice of Palestine radio he would go to Bethlehem ``even if I
have to walk there on foot.''
