Ha'aretz reports

Security forces of both the Palestinian Authority and Israel have recently arrested members of radical Islamist groups with links to Al-Qaida and global jihadists in various parts of the West Bank. The most extensive group was uncovered in the town of Qabatiya near Jenin. Those detained were unarmed and were arrested before they could carry out any attacks.

Security sources in Israel and the Palestinian Authority told Haaretz that six activists were arrested in Qabatiya, some of them belonging to the same family.

The group was busy disseminating ideas identified with the ideology of Osama bin Laden and his supporters, mostly through the Internet and in meetings at the mosque of Qabatiya during prayer. They described Palestinian politicians, both from the PA and Hamas, as "infidels."

This is the first organized cell marketing the radical Islamist ideology of Al-Qaida to be identified in the West Bank in recent years.

...The members of the groups that were exposed were also involved in gathering information on possible terrorist targets, mostly through instructions received via the Internet. It does not appear that those arrested were being guided by groups abroad in an organized fashion - as an agent would be by a controller. Apparently, the input was more a result of feedback from global jihadist groups.
