Israel Eases Curfew in Territories; Ensuing Riots Deepen Pessimism
Transcribed from the clipping
“Almost as soon as the Israeli army lifted curfews today in the occupied territories, rioting erupted and new deaths followed… the army began today to carry out other measures, telling 18 settlers to stay out of Arab towns and to turn in their army-issued rifles. The settlers vowed to defy what they called ‘insane orders.’”
Context added by this archive
Clyde Haberman, page one. Read the two halves against each other. The answer to a massacre of Palestinians was a curfew on Palestinians, and the news is that lifting it caused rioting. The answer for the settlers was being asked to stay out of Arab towns and hand back rifles the army had issued them. Binyamin Zeev Kahane calls that illegal and criminal.
