-Caveat Lector- Ha'aretz: Marwarn Bargouti - Tanzim leader vows to escalate violence By Daniel Sobelman, Ha'aretz Correspondent Ha'aretz (BUlletin) 11 October 2000 The leader of the Tanzim paramilitary movement in the West Bank, Marwan Barghouti, on Wednesday asserted that the Tanzim would escalate the confrontations with Israel and not try to calm the situation. In a live interview to Al-Jezira television in Qatar, Barghouti stated that "this blessed Intifada is looking ahead and the mass activity is moving forward." He said no orders had been given to stop the Intifada. "On the contrary, what is needed is the continuation of these activities and the continuation of the Intifada at full scale." Asked whether he denied having received orders to stop the violence, he said, "Maybe some of the people here mistakenly interpreted this. The intention is that shooting and confrontations [should be avoided] in areas of intense friction... There is general agreement among all the forces that these points should be left open for peaceful mass rallies." Barghouti accused Israel of killing a Palestinian youth in Tulkarm shortly before the interview and of further incidents of shooting. "Because of this," he said, "the Intifada will continue and we are acting to sponsor, support and assist it with all the means we have." Barghouti explained that the purpose of the Palestinian militia established Monday is to defend the territory of the Palestinian Authority from Israel and "the terrorist settlers." The "armed groups" that have already been established, he said, "are operating within the framework of orders from the Fatah movement." <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
