IDF to withdraw for PA election By ARIEH O'SULLIVAN
Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz revealed on Monday that Israel would pull its troops out of Palestinian cities before the January 9 Palestinian chairmanship election.

Speaking at the opening of the annual Herzliya Conference on National Security, he said, "We will reduce the friction. We will get out of the Palestinian cities for a period of 72 hours – one day before the election, the day of the election and the day after it – and let them manage the election in the Palestinian cities in their own way so that they can have a democracy," he said.
