Ministers Suggest
Removal Of Settlers
Jerusalem (JTA) — A sizable
number of Israeli Cabinet
ministers favor the forcible
dismantling of the Jewish
settlements inside the West
Bank city of Hebron.
They favor the measure
because of fears there will be
further violence in Hebron
following the Feb. 25
murders of at least 40 Pales-
tinians at the Tomb of the
Patriarchs.
Israeli settlers and their
political supporters reacted
with rage at reports sug-
gesting that seven out of
nine ministers who spoke at
the weekly Cabinet meeting
are in favor of removing the
approximately 400 settlers
currently living among
70,000 Palestinians in
Hebron.
A spokesman for the
Hebron settlers, Noam Ar-
non, said a decision to
dismantle the settlements
was "inconceivable."
Rehavam Ze'evi, leader of
the right-wing Moledet par-
ty, said it would spell "the
end of Zionism."
West Bank settlement
leaders said there would be a
widescale campaign of civil
disobedience if the govern-
ment made any attempt to
evict the Hebron settlers.
Environment Minister
Yossi Sarid of the left-wing
Meretz party said it was
possible the decision would
be taken at the next Cabinet
meeting.
There are 42 Jewish
families living in three
closely guarded sites inside
Hebron: Beit Hadassah, Tel
Romeida and the Avraham
Avinu Synagogue complex.
And about 150 youngsters
study at a yeshiva in the
city.
Some of the residents are
affiliated with the staunchly
anti-Arab Kach and Kahane
Chai movements, both of
which were inspired by the
late Rabbi Meir Kahane.
Residents are guarded by
Israel Defense Force troops
night and day.
One of the two ministers
who opposed the eviction of
the Hebron settlers,
Agriculture Minister Yakov
Tsur, said that he, like the
majority of the ministers,
was opposed in principle to
any Jewish settlements in
the heart of Hebron.
But, he said, ordering the
evictions now would send
"the wrong message, a mes-
Rehavam Ze'evi:
`End of Zionism.'
sage of caving in" to the Pa-
lestinians.
The other minister at the
weekly meeting who opposed
the move, Economic Min-
ister Shimon Sheetrit, said
that evicting the settlers
would fly in the face of the
self-rule accord, which
specifically put off the issue
of settlements to a later
time.
Several Cabinet ministers,
especially those with dovish
leanings, called for sterner
action against anti-Arab ex-
tremists.
The army has issued five
administrative detention
orders against leaders of ex-
tremist movements. Two of
them have been apprehend-
ed.
Over the weekend, the
army announced that an
unspecified number of anti-
Arab extremists would no
longer be called for reserve
duty, adding that their ar-
my-issued weapons would
soon be impounded. ❑
Jewish Kids
`Stop The Hate'
Washington (JTA) — Follow-
ing several weeks during
which Jewish and black
leaders made headlines
discussing inter-ethnic rela-
tions, a group of ethnically
diverse teenagers has
entered the debate with ac-
tions as well as words.
Nearly 200 teen-agers from
the United States and from
around the world, including
90 Jewish high school
students from the B'nai
B'rith Youth Organization,
gathered here last week to
promote understanding and
tolerance.
