IDF Orders 15 Palestinians Deported from West Bank to Gaza Strip
(Jerusalem Post) Margot Dudkevitch - IDF Maj.-Gen. Moshe Kaplinsky signed deportation orders to the Gaza Strip Tuesday for 15 administrative detainees being held in Israeli prisons in Judea and Samaria. The detainees have two days to appeal the decision. The Israeli government argues that such expulsions create an important deterrent against suicide bombings and other attacks on Israeli civilians. Daniel Reisner, the head of the military's legal department, said that the detainees were not being tried because Israel feared its intelligence sources could be revealed in such proceedings.
