Early Thursday, a joint operation by Israel Police and Shin Bet forces arrested six right-wing activists, over suspicions that they had gathered intelligence on IDF movements in the West Bank.
The arrests took place in Jerusalem as well as in West Bank settlements of Yitzhar, Itamar, Harsha, and Kiryat Arba.
Earlier this month, dozens of right-wing activists clashed with police officers in Jerusalem, amid attempts to arrest suspects linked to recent so-called price tag attacks.

A person close to those arrested said that "the police have gone mad. They don't have a clue who attacked the Benyamin commander, and anyone who texts about seeing a jeep is being arrested."
Gone mad?! the @!$%#ing nerve...excellent job by the Police, other security forces in the area. personally, I don't see any @!$%#ing problem with arresting anyone who's texting about seeing an IDF Jeep, or a Palestinian Olive tree, for that matter. arrest, sort it out later. the @!$%#ers gonna miss the good old days...

#2 - Thu Dec 29, 2011 5:53 AM ESTThere are 2 reasons to track IDF movement. 1) To plan for attacks 2) To secure safe escapes after committing crimes
Either constitutes a severe threat to Safety and Security of the area. It's good that the Police didn't have to go through much red tape to make these arrests, but now that it is in print that could change. The Settlers have had too much political power and until lately have been acting violently with impunity.

Red Tape only blocks progress for so long. I think we may need a 3 state solution: One for Israel; One for Palestine; and One for Hamas and the Fanatical Settlers (let them live together lol)

Well, part of The British Mandate is already an independent state-- Jordan. And part is already an independent Jewish state-- Israel.
So all we need is one for the more moderate Arabs-- most of the West Bank.
Finally, gGza could become independent as a new country called "Hamastan".

If you are including Jordan then "part" should be pluralized as "parts" since Israel and Jordan would be more than 1 part. Though, most wouldn't consider Jordan apart of the Mandate for Palestine as most official documents refer to them as being separate and Transjordan was never considered for Jewish Settlement which was the main purpose of the Mandate for Palestine.
