<p style="font-size:10pt;">RAMALLAH, (PIC)&#8211; Many Palestinian  bloggers have launched lately online forums and pages, especially  through Facebook service, aimed at rallying West Bankers against de  facto president Mahmoud Abbas and his repressive authority in Ramallah  city.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Any internet surfer can notice the  increasing number of online groups who invite people of different ages,  especially the young men to join them and react with their calls for  protesting against Abbas&#8217;s regime.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">These pages condemn the suppression of  freedoms, political arrests and corruption in the West Bank and call for  civil disobedience against the regime there.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Some internet groups such as &#8220;Palestine  wants to topple Abbas&#8221; and &#8220;the campaign of overthrowing the Palestinian  authority&#8221; called recently for boycotting the local elections to be  held by Salam Fayyad&#8217;s de facto government.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Internet links to such Facebook groups can  be found in an &#8220;Arabic&#8221; report about this issue posted on the  multilingual Palestinian information center (PIC) website.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">In another context, the five Palestinian  detainees from Al-Khalil city who were kidnapped by the Israeli  occupation troops following their release from the Palestinian authority  jails on January 7, 2011 accused the PA of conspiring against them to  punish them for not quitting their hunger strike in its prisons.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">In a letter leaked from the Israeli prison  of Ofer near Ramallah city, the five detainees held Abbas and his  authority fully responsible for their detention by Israel.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">They said that Israeli officers told them  that their PA interrogators were providing Israel on a regular basis  with information about them, adding they heard the same questions they  used to be asked in PA interrogation rooms from these Israeli officers.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">The five detainees, who had gone on hunger  strike for more than three weeks in PA jails in protest at  maltreatment, were released early last month after huge pressures from  local and international parties, but the PA disposed of these pressures  and coordinated with the Israeli side to lock them up in its jails after  their release.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">In a separate incident, PA security  militias kidnapped Wednesday evening Hamas-affiliated member of Nablus  municipal council Sheikh Fayyad Al-Agbar after raiding his home in the  city.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Sheikh Agbar is one of the most noted  reformers in Nablus city and an elected member of the municipal council  there. He was detained before this time in PA jails and was exposed to  physical abuse.</p>
