VOA reports,

Leaders of the settlers’ movement have called a meeting to formulate a code of conduct to prevent violent confrontations between anti-disengagement protestors and Israel security forces. The meeting comes in the wake of clashes in Gaza last week.
The leaders of the Jewish settlers are expressing concern that further violence will only undermine support for their protest against Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s disengagement plan.
[…] During that incident last Wednesday, several of the Jewish extremists were videotaped stoning a Palestinian teenager. The attackers were heard shouting ‘lynch him’ while they struck him in the head with stones as he lay unconscious on the ground with an Israeli soldier trying to shield him from the attackers.

Haaretz warns,

The Shin Bet security services have an additional concern, in the area of hidden threats: the present generation of Jewish terror. The first generation operated during the first half of the 1980s, carried out the attacks against the Palestinian mayors and planned the terror attack on the Temple Mount. The second generation, according to the counting of the Shin Bet, operated a decade later – this is the generation of Baruch Goldstein (who killed and wounded a large number of Muslim worshipers in the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron in 1994) and Yigal Amir (who assassinated Yitzhak Rabin). The third generation includes dozens of extremists, whose names and photographs are on file in the (security) network, some of them active as individuals or in pairs, and some in units of 10 or more people, who are loosely linked in semi-underground cells.

Fears of extremist violence have even the highest government officials in a tizzy.

Israeli President Moshe Katsav said on Monday the vocal opposition of pro-settler rabbis to Israel’s Gaza pullout could incite ultranationalists to try to assassinate Prime Minister Ariel Sharon.
“In the struggle over the disengagement someone is likely to distort the rabbis’ messages,” Katsav told Army Radio.

Yesterday, six thirteen year-old boys were indicted on charges of attacking an Arab family in Gush Katif and seizing their home.

Six 13 year-old Jewish boys who were arrested last week in Gush Katif will be held in jail at least until this Wednesday, under an order handed down by Supreme Court Justice Ayala Procaccia.
The children are accused of occupying an Arab house near the Maoz Hayam hotel near on the Gush Katif beach. They were arrested for questioning and have yet to be formerly charged with any crime.
Despite the fact that under Israeli law, the children, like other suspects who have not been convicted beyond a reasonable doubt, are presumed innocent, Justice Procaccia sounded convinced in her ruling that the children had been involved in wrongdoing.
“This was a mass, violent incident involving a group of Jews seizing a building owned by Palestinians, throwing rocks at Palestinians and injuring at least one of them, and a refusal to adhere to the orders of security forces,” Procaccia wrote.

The threat of violence, however, does not come from all corrdiors. Settlers in the West Bank village of Ganim, for example, have left in advance of their own expulsion to avoid violent confrontation.

While most of the 9,000 settlers slated for evacuation have vowed to oppose the pullout, the residents of Ganim have mostly decided to leave quietly. Cardboard boxes and garbage bags filled with old magazines, books, towels and children’s toys sit on a porch. Garden furniture lies discarded in a large green garbage can.
Unlike the majority of settlers who claim an ideological attachment to the biblical land of Israel, many of the residents now leaving came to these settlements to get away form the city and live in a small pastoral community with their own homes and land.
