Israel’s public security minister is expected to recommend that steps be taken to limit the activities of the Islamic Movement in Israel, the Israeli daily Ha’aretz reported Tuesday. Shlomo Ben-Ami held consultations with senior police officials Sunday on how to deal with the movement after two of its members carried out car bombings earlier this month in Tiberias and Haifa. Among the proposals raised at the meeting was a plan to revoke the licenses of religious leaders who preach against Israel.
