"Kofi Annan, United Nations secretary-general, demanded an end to the occupation of Orient House and other properties "without delay". But Mr Sharon made clear on Sunday there would be no return of Orient House to the Palestinians and secured cabinet approval for the opening on Monday of an additional Israeli police station in east Jerusalem."

The most worrisome aspect to this is the silence that it imposes.

Once the official communication organs of even an quasi-state apparatus are closed, then the people they represent and speak for, no longer exist as a public entity.

After that, their physical disappearance is just a matter of time.
