April 2005 They do not believe in peace talks. They do not want to share the land. They are well armed and are carrying out increasingly violent attacks, even targeting innocent civilians. They are members of Israel's militant far right, and they are threatening to become Israel's next big problem. In "Israel's Next War?" FRONTLINE goes deep inside the world of militant Jewish radicals who pose a grave new threat to Israeli security and, potentially, to the region. "The dream of these extremists"?to blow up the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, one of the most important holy sites in the Muslim world?"should give us sleepless nights," says former Israeli Security Chief Avi Dichter. "Jewish terror is liable to create a serious strategic threat that will turn the Israeli-Palestinian conflict into a conflict between thirteen million Jews and a billion Muslims all over the world." The program also profiles two young men?Shlomo Dvir and Yarden Morag?who planned to set off a bomb at a Palestinian girls school just as hundreds of young students arrived in the morning. The timing was carefully designed to harm as many children as possible. "It was my idea," says Shlomo Dvir in an exclusive interview from an Israeli prison. "Whoever gets hurt, gets hurt." Most Israelis reacted with shock and horror when Dvir and Morag's plan was revealed?but a small minority refused to condemn them. Dvir and Morag's bomb never went off?an Israeli policeman lucked onto their plot at the last minute?and the investigation led Israeli security officials to an underground of other radical settlers who helped with this attack and others. These settlers are part of a much larger group of far rightists in Israel?the Kahanists, who are members of Kach, the outlawed party of the late Rabbi Meir Kahane, who rose to prominence in the 1980s with his message that nothing short of the expulsion of all Arabs from Jewish land will guarantee Israeli security

  • @doritela2008 Don't confuse the problem. The attacks against Jews in Judea & Samaria are not because they are settlers, but rather because they are Jews. The greatest mistake ever was pulling out of Gaza. Since the time we pulled out of Gaza more than 70% of the rockets and mortar attacks have occurred against Israeli civilians INSIDE the green line. The problem ultimately stems from economics. The arabs living in the PA & gaza are poor because the arab gov. there is inept.

  • @andyinvietnam

    no rocket attacks? how about all the attacks on the settlers and soldiers being killed on a daily basis? we did good that we got out of gaza.. sharon i hated him first but he made me to vote for the kadima party because of what he did.

  • @Devilock79

    Ariel Sharon made a huge mistake by pulling out of Gaza. The wars, bombs, hamas. are all due to the Jews NOT being nGaza. The unemployment rate in 2003 before the pull out nGaza was below 10%. There were factories &businesses &most people were content - Arab &Jewish. There were no rocket attacks. After the pull-out the unemployment rate went to near 50% &is now between 40-60%. How can u say it was a great thing for anyone? Sharon is n the hosp. because he realized his mistake.

  • When Ariel Sharon realized that what he was doing was evil, he tried to make things right. He pulled all the settlers out of Gaza and tried to do the same in the West Bank. He created a new party to try to make peace with the Palestinians. This is why right-wing Zionists tried to murder him. They almost succeeded and now Sharon lies in his deathbed as a human vegetable. This is the evil we must oppose by any means necessary.

  • Israel is the Fourth Reich!

  • Excellent video. Thanks for the upload.
