SettlementsJews selling weapons to the Palestinians!?(sounds like the radical fundamentalist Jews in the settlements are helping provoke the violence to achieve their own agenda of expelling the Palestinians from their homeland)

Jul. 18, 2002
IDF major held in probe of Jewish settlers accused of selling arms to Palestinians
By THE JERUSALEM POST STAFF

Judea and Samaria police have arrested a
reservist major in a widening probe of Israelis
suspected of selling weapons to Palestinians.

Particularly startling in the case is that two of the suspects come from Adora, a Judea community in which four people were killed in a terrorist infiltration in April.

Maj. Ya'acov Uriel, the latest suspect arrested, whose hometown was not given, is suspected of stealing weapons from the IDF which eventually made their way to Palestinian hands, Israel Radio reports.

According to the radio, more arrests are expected in the case for which six Israelisn are held on suspicion of supplying Palestinians with hundreds of thousands of bullets.

Three suspects are from Adora and one from the settlement of Telem in the Hebron-area.

One suspect is said to have charged Palestinian truckers NIS 150 -200 apiece to let their vehicles past IDF roadblocks, the radio said.

According to reports Wednesday, Oded Molay, 21, of Adora, was ordered held another nine days by Jerusalem Magistrate's Court, the Itim news agency reports.

On Sunday police arrested two pairs of brothers serving in the IDF, from Adora and Telem. The radio identified them as Ro'i and Sela Amar, brothers from Adora, Moshe and Nadav Cohen, brothers from Telem.

A Palestinian of the Tanzim from Tarkumiya, a village near Adora and Telem, has also been arrested in the case.

The Palestinian had a forged Israeli
identity card, and is suspected to have been
buying weapons from Israelis living in Judea
and Samaria for the past three years.

The Israeli brothers told police other soldiers sold them weapons. They reportedly admitted to
selling arms to other Palestinians still being
sought by police.

Another suspect, Moshe Cohen of Adora was arrested on Sunday after 1,000 bullets were found in his car. Police found another 3,000 bullets and various military equipment in a warehouse in but did not find any weapons.

Cohen and four other suspects were arrested.
Several weeks ago, Hebron police received
intelligence that four Israelis had been selling
weapons to Palestinians in the Hebron area
over a four-year period.

So true...Have you noticed the news headlines regarding Congressman Trafficant, it never begins with "Democrat"?

If this had been a Republican congressman you can bet every news headline would go like this "Republican Congressman James Trafficant is found guilty" or words to that effect. The key item being what party he comes from.

I'll bet if you took a poll today, the average American who recognized his name would think he's a Republican.
