SOUL-SEARCHING
CREATING A HIGHER STANDARD
from page 38
The Model Year 2000
Third, Israeli security officials
pointed to the growing radicalization
of a political group that has a strong
following in the Israeli Arab commu-
nity — the Islamic movement.
Prime Minister Barak was among
those who said that Israel's Arab pop-
ulation should not be subject to
wholesale discrimination because of
the crimes of isolated individuals.
"Extremists, as serious as they may
be, will be dealt with as individuals,"
Barak told Israel Radio's Arabic ser-
vice on Tuesday. "There is no place
for generalizations."
Israeli Arab legislator Talab el-Sana
of the United Arab List sounded the
same theme, cautioning that "one
should not blame the entire Arab
population in Israel."
But at the same time, he added,
the involvement of Israeli Arabs in the
attacks should lead to some "serious
soul-searching."
Sunday's car bombings, still a sub-
ject of an ongoing police investiga-
tion, have prompted theories that
Hamas recruited Israeli Arabs to carry
out their missions because of an
ongoing clampdown on their activi-
ties in the territories by Israeli and
Palestinian security officials.
The two car bombs apparently
exploded prematurely, killing the two
occupants in the car in Tiberias and
seriously wounding an Israeli Jewish
woman who was passing by. An
almost simultaneous explosion in
Haifa killed its occupant.
It remains unclear whether the
bombers were recruited by any orga-
nization or acted on their own, but
the incidents mark the first time that
Israeli Arabs were believed involved in
attempted suicide bombings.
In the case of Abdullah Aghbariya,
who confessed to murdering a young
Israeli couple last week, it seems clear
that he acted on his own.
Just the same, he told his inter-
rogators that recently he had read a
number of religious books that con-
tained sharply worded attacks against
the state, blaming the Jews for heresy
and Israel for having unlawfully con-
fiscated Arab land.
Aghbariya, like Sunday's three car
bombers, did not live in a vacuum.
All of them may well have been
motivated by a growing anti-Israel
rhetoric.
Such rhetoric comes not only from
the militant Palestinian groups Hamas
or Islamic Jihad, which are based in
the territories and in neighboring Arab
lands, but from some elements of the
Islamic movement in Israel itself. Fl
