 Palestinian National Authority - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Palestinian National Authority (PNA or PA; Arabic: السلطة الوطنيةالفلسطينية As-Sulta Al-Wataniyya Al-Filastiniyya Hebrew: הרשותהפלסטינית Harashut Hafalastinit) is an interim administrative organization that nominally governs parts of the West Bank and all of the Gaza Strip (which it calls "the Palestinian Territories").
Palestinian security officials said that the kidnapping was carried out by the Abu al-Rish Brigades, accused of being linked to Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat's Fatah faction.
Israel has also targeted Palestinian Authority infrastructure; in particular it has closed and destroyed parts of the Palestinian sea and air ports, that were used, it claimed, to transport terrorists and their equipment.

 MSN Encarta - Palestinian National Authority
The PNA was established as a result of a 1993 accord signed by Israel and the PLO providing for incremental Israeli withdrawal from most of the West Bank and Gaza Strip and limited Palestinian self-rule in these areas.
This contributes to a general sense of discontent among the Palestinian population and to the ongoing appeal of Islamist groups such as Hamas, which accuse the PNA of corruption and weakness.
The PNA is constantly pressed by Israel and the United States to suppress terrorist acts by such groups, pitting the Palestinian administration against segments of its own population.

 Palestinian Elections - 2005
Palestinian elections officials estimate 120,000 eligible voters in East Jerusalem but said it was impossible to know because in September, when Palestinians were registering to vote, Israeli Special Forces accompanied by intelligence agents raided and closed down several registration centers in East Jerusalem.
Palestinians hope that the forthcoming presidential election will provide the basis for a new Palestinian democratic political system, especially if it is followed by legislative elections, which the Palestinians hope to hold in March.
Elections, in short, will take place while Israel still occupies most towns and villages in the West Bank; while it continues actively dispossessing and ethnically cleansing innocent Palestinians; with killings, house demolitions, arbitrary arrests, an increase in nerve-wracking flying checkpoints, and other daily excesses and atrocities against Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza.

These elections are necessary to complete the required number of PNC representatives and to elect the national authority either directly or from the elected members.
