fire on the streets not only of
West Bank and Gaza Strip
but of Tel Aviv, Haifa, and
Jerusalem, causing who
knows what damage to life
and limb. Yet not everyone
was put off by the idea.
"Since it's obvious that the
police lack the ability to pro-
tect peaceful citizens from
rampaging murderers from
[Gaza], and the old notion
of the deterrent 'cop on
the beat' was abandoned
years ago, there seems to
be no avoiding the solu-
tions of carrying weapons
for self-defense," wrote
veteran columnist Shmuel
Shnitzer in Ma'ariv. "It's
the natural solution where
the law and law-abiding
citizens receive no protec-
tion and the police turn
up, only after the fact, to
explain ... how impossible
it is to prevent the smug-
gling of knives into the
city.
As matters turned out,
those were practically pro-
phetic words. For barely had
they been published when,
on the day before the Gaza
Strip was re-opened and ap-
proximately 40,000 workers
were allowed to return to
their jobs in Israel, Police
Chief Ya'akov Turner told
the government that only 10
percent of those passing
through the Gaza check-
points actually underwent
serious scrutiny.
Nor would rigorous checks
of everyone leaving the Strip
necessarily solve the prob-
lem anyway. On Monday,
the very morning the week-
long blockade was lifted, 39-
year-old Uri Magidish from
the Jewish settlement of
Gan Or, in the southern
Gaza Strip, was found stabb-
ed to death in his
greenhouse — further
evidence of the futility of col-
lective punishment as a
means of "calming the
population," as the IDF's
argot puts it.
While no one in power took
the suggestions made by the
Settlers' Council or Mr.
Netanyahu as any more
than opposition rhetoric, the
fact remains that the sense
of insecurity among Israel's
citizens is rising at a rate
that even the most dovish
ministers in the Rabin
government have been forc-
ed to acknowledge.
The problem is that the
government has no answer.
Last week, for example,
the Gaza Coast Regional
Council forcefully urged the
government "to deport 1,000
inciters to murder" — as
though the expulsion of 415
Palestinians last December
had proved a deterrent to the
killing.
