You should also look at a post from Once Upon a Time in the West as the blog author posted a strange message from an American living in Israel on the Free Republic forum of there being a large scale offensive by Palestinian terrorists.

Both by Hamas and the "moderate" PLO as the Free Republic user describes what the West Bank (where the PLO controls it quite openly) is completely dessertted, along with its foot rationings gone.
