	Hi Ibrahim,

	Thank you for your prompt reply. Following are quick answers to your
two
	queries:

	'Leased/used from PalTel only" means that ISP's who wish to work
with,
	partner with PalTel should only use PalTel provided facilities.
Meaning
	Leased lines, dial-up facilities, Internet Access etc. Meaning they
should
	not use Israeli, or any other Telco facilities. That includes but is
not
	limited to Internet Access via Satellites.

	PalTel does not intend to provide Internet Access Services to End
Users of
	ISP's that cooperate/ work with/Partner with PalTel. That should and
will be
	the ISP's business to deal with their End Users. PalTel's Customers
shall be
	only the ISP's. Internet End Users in turn will deal with their
respective
	ISP's.


	Ibrahim, I really would like to start the process of face to face
meetings,
	to discuss and dialogue such queries and a myriad of others. Clarify
issues,
	elaborate on others etc. That will be a lot faster.

	I am sure there will be a lot of questions and answers. But we have
to
	start.

	I am therefore suggesting meeting this coming week, the week of
August 11th.
	Please name the precise date, time and venue.

	Alternatively, PalTel will then issue an open invitation to all
ISP's to
	meet at our premises and dialogue with all those interested in
accepting the
	invitation.

	Look forward to hearing from you soon.

	Best Regards,

	Abdel Rahman Omar
