Good news: Defense Ministry to conduct mass arrest of 'freeze violators'

The Defense Ministry is going to start Phase 3 of its enforcement of the 'settlement freeze' on Sunday: Mass arrests of people who violate the 'settlement freeze.'

Stage 3 of the IDF’s operation, aimed at implementing the settlement freeze, is also called the “criminal stage,” since it provides for the arrest and indictment of settlers who obstruct the work of the Civil Administration for Judea and Samaria in distributing stop-work orders, as well as settlers and contractors who illegally build in the settlements.

...

Under the plan, inspectors arriving at settlements to enforce the freeze will be accompanied by large police forces, which will arrest anyone who tries to prevent the inspectors from entering the gates of the community. In addition, criminal charges will be pressed against the owners of lots where construction is taking place in violation of moratorium regulations, as well as against contractors, and possibly against regional council chiefs if they are aware of the activity.

Two comments: Where is Ehud Barak going to find the budget to do this? And wouldn't it be great if all the Right wing MK's (who are immune from prosecution) showed up to be arrested on Sunday?
