Settlers Are Furious
Over Amry Orders

Jerusalem (JTA) — Jewish
settlers reacted angrily this
week to army orders saying
Israeli soldiers have the
right to arrest settlers who
commit acts of violence.
The orders, contained in a
14-page pamphlet issued by
the Israel Defense Force this
week, set ground rules for
soldiers when dealing with
settlers in the West Bank
and Gaza Strip whose pro-
tests against the Israeli-
Palestine Liberation Organ-
ization accord breach the
law.
In addition to granting the
power of making military
arrests, the orders allow the
army to impose curfews on
settlements.
Spokesmen for the settlers
have complained that the
pamphlet is yet another ex-
ample of how the govern-
ment is working hand-in-
hand with the PLO to harm the
settlers.
"This sort of thing is
psychological warfare by the
government," said settler
spokesman Shai Bazak.
Zvi Katzover, the leader of
the local council of Kiryat
Arba, a settlement near
Hebron, said the army
"should not even dream" of
arresting protesters.
Last week, settlers killed
three Palestinians near
Hebron in retaliation for the
murder by militant Palestin-
ians of an Israeli father and
son.
The pamphlet was drawn
up by the IDP judge ad-
vocate general in consulta-
tion with the attorney gen-
eral and police force.

It was issued in the wake
of public criticism that the
army has not done enough to
quell the illegal acts of set-
tlers.
Members of Likud joined
settlers' groups in calling
the instructions illegal, say-
ing soldiers had no right to
take on the role of
policemen.
Military and legal experts
point out that there is
nothing new in the instruc-
tions, which merely compile
and clarify existing orders.
Curfews, they point out,
have never been imposed on
Jewish settlements, and
may never be.
Legal affairs analyst
Moshe Negbi told Israel
Radio that the instructions
are legal.
The army has always had
the power of arrest under
military law in the ter-
ritories, but these powers
have so far only been applied
to Palestinians, he said.
Mr. Negbi said he was not
surprised at the settlers' re-
sponse because "they got
used to the situation in
which the military laws in
the territories were en-
forced" unequally in their
favor.

"It is a credit to the Israeli
army that all those laws and
regulations which are in
power in the territories
should be and would be ap-
plied equally to all offenders
and to all people who infr-
inge on the public peace,
whether they are Palestin-
ians or Jewish settlers or

Israeli citizens," he said. ❑
