Jerusalem (JTA) — Hun-
dreds of Palestinians have
applied to join the new Pa-
lestinian police force that is
to be established in the Gaza
Strip and West Bank town of
Jericho.
Registration took place
over the weekend at 11
recruitment offices set up by
the Palestine Liberation
Organization throughout
the territories, with most of
the applicants reportedly
members of Al Fatah, the
PLO faction led by Yassir
Arafat.
Under the terms of the
landmark Israeli-PLO
agreement signed Sept. 13 in
Washington, the Palestin-
ians were authorized to
begin building a police force
immediately after the sign-
ing. The core of the force was
to come from PLO fighters
from outside Gaza and
Jericho.
According to Palestinian
sources, most of the vol-
unteers will be turned down,
as the intention is to make
the core of the force from the
Palestine Liberation Army,
whose men have trained for
years in various Arab coun-
tries.
Registration fees were set
at one Jordanian dinar,
almost $2, to prove the seri-
ous intention of the can-
didate. Among the questions
on the questionnaires can-
didates filled out was, "Will
you obey the rule of law or-
your conscience?"
The questionnaires will be
passed on to a screening
committee at the PLO head-
quarters in Tunis, which
will select the 14,000-strong
Palestinian police force, to
be divided between Gaza and
Jericho.
The Ma'ariv newspaper,
quoting French sources, re-
ported that the PLO has al-
ready begun secret prepara-
tions to organize two intel-
ligence bodies, one for local
purposes, similar to the FBI
or the Israeli Shin Bet do-
mestic security service, and
the second, for foreign intel-
ligence activities.
The internal security ser-
vice will comprise members
of the prestigious Force 17
commando units of the
Fatah organization. Its
commander reportedly will
be Abul Tayeb, the former
commander of Force 17.
Abul Tayeb was reportedly
instructed to set up a force of
1,000 to 1,500, whose main
task would be to protect the
heads of the Palestinian self-
rule authority.
