<p style="font-size:10pt;">RAMALLAH, (PIC)&#8211; The Israeli army  arrested Thursday morning four Palestinians from the northwest Ramallah  town of Beit Rema, three of them members of the town municipality, said  Palestinian rights expert Fouad al-Khafsh.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">The fourth arrestee is Alaa Remawi, a  known Palestinian writer. All of the arrestees had previously served  time in Israeli occupation prisons.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Khafsh said he believed the Israelis are  targeting local councils because of the multiple services they offer to  the Palestinians. Previously released prisoners have also been prime  targets in Israeli arrest campaigns. No charges have been placed against  the detainees.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">The Israelis arrested 13 more West Bank  men Thursday morning. The arrestees were &#8220;wanted&#8221; by the Israeli army  and taken in for questioning, Israeli Radio said.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Two nights prior, Israeli undercover  police stormed the Wadi al-Halwa Information Center and arrested center  director Jawad Siyam.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Police said Siyam was suspected of  assault. The victim and time and place of incident were left unnamed,  the center&#8217;s attorney reported.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Meanwhile, Adnan Ghaith, a member of the  Bustan defense committee in Jerusalem, said he received three phone  calls from Maskobia police summoning him for questioning.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">The Israeli West Bank military chief  earlier issued orders to have Ghaith exiled from Jerusalem for four  months for allegedly inciting &#8220;violent acts&#8221; during the latest protests  in Jerusalem&#8217;s majorly Arab Silwan district.</p>
