Jerusalem (JTA) — A plan to
expand settlements in the
vicinity of Jerusalem is be-
ing discussed by government
ministries, according to a
report by Yediot Achronot.
The plan would join the
capital to two nearby regions
of settlements: Gush Etzion
to the south, and Ma'aleh
Adumim to the east.
While Prime Minister Yit-
zhak Rabin ended the policy
of the predecessor Likud
government of promoting
massive settlement
throughout the West Bank
and Gaza Strip, he has con-
sistently supported what he
termed "security set-
tlements."
In his 1992 inaugural ad-
dress, he pledged that his
government would
"continue to enhance and
strengthen Jewish set-
tlement along the lines of
confrontation, due to their
importance for security, and
in Greater Jerusalem."
According to Yediot, the
plan has been approved for
consideration by Israel's
Civil Administration, which
oversees the territories.
It was reportedly drafted
by representatives of several
ministries, including that of
defense, which Mr. Rabin
heads. Mr. Rabin's assistant
for settlement affairs has al-
ready signed off on the plan,
Yediot reported.
According to Yediot, the
plan has the support of the
right wing of Mr. Rabin's
Labor Party, as well as
members of the opposition.
More than 15,000 people
live in Ma'aleh Adumim, a
bedroom community whose
residents mostly consider
themselves residents of
suburban Jerusalem, not
settlers of the West Bank.

The Jerusalem suburb of Ramot.
The plan would reportedly
extend the town along the
road to Jerusalem, up to a
quarter-mile from the capi-
tal's municipal boundaries.
East of Ma'aleh Adumim,
the proposed settlement bloc
would increase Jewish set-
tlement in the direction of
Jericho.
The plan would also create
a continuous string of set-
tlement s between
Jerusalem's southern
suburbs and the settlements
of Gush Etzion, 15 miles
south, now home to more
than 10,000 people.
Zionist settlement in the
Gush Etzion region began in
1928. In 1948, residents of
the villages in the Etzion
area were the last line of
defense for Jerusalem in the
War of Independence. Those
who survived the battles
were massacred after sur-
rendering to the Arab
Legion.
The Etzion bloc was the
location of the first Jewish
settlements in the wake of
the Six-Day War, estab-
lished in part by orphans of
the original settlers.

Dinitz Decision
Is Weeks Away
Jerusalem (JTA) — A couple
of weeks may pass before At-
torney General Michael Ben-
Yair decides whether to
press criminal charges
against Simcha Dinitz, ac-
cording to a spokeswoman
for the Attorney General's
Office.
Mr. Dinitz, who chairs the
Jewish Agency for Israel and
the World Zionist Organiza-
tion, has been under in-
vestigation for possible
fraud. ❑
