Ex-Gush Katif Spokesman Held for Incitement to Rebellion
Excerpts;
The former spokesman for the Gush Katif local council, Eran Sternberg, was taken in for questioning by the Shin Beit security service on Tuesday on suspicions of incitement to rebellion.
Eran openly called for refusal to enlist in the Israel Defense Forces after last summer’s disengagement from the Gaza Strip.
Sternberg is also suspected of incitement to violence against security forces and minorities.
Sternberg refuted the suspicions of incitement to violence against security forces and minorities, and said that even his Shin Bet questioners admitted they have no evidence to back up the suspicions.
Commentary;
It seems obvious that the arms of law enforcement in Israel have come to give somewhat less emphasis to fighting crime and combatting the threat of Arab violence and terrorism. The police, the “thought police”, as with the IDF, seem largely focused on protecting and carrying out the orders of the leftist regime. MB
