Israel claims it holds 175 Palestinians as suicide terrorists.

At the rate Israel is capturing terrorists, there will soon be a Return--Palestinians imprisoned within Israel. Meanwhile, Arafat mouths same cliches.

RAMALLAH, West Bank -- Israel has captured 175 Palestinians suspected of plotting suicide bomb attacks, officials confirmed Monday, saying the figure shows that Palestinian militants are relentless in trying to attack Israelis.
Since Sept. 2000, 83 Palestinians have blown themselves up, killing 296 Israelis on buses, in malls, at gas stations and in cafes.

The Palestinians say harsh Israeli military strikes and strict travel bans in the West Bank and Gaza Strip provoke further bombings and shootings.

Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat has denounced attacks on civilians, and was to repeat such a condemnation today, in a speech to the Palestinian parliament.

"Such attacks do not help our national interest in having our independent state, nor the Israeli interest of having security and peace," said a draft of the Arafat speech obtained by The Associated Press.
