Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin warned Palestinians from the Knesset podium Wednesday to end their uprising in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, saying they “will achieve nothing through violence.”
Rabin spoke in reply to no-confidence motions, introduced by the Hadash Communist Party and the Progressive List For Peace, protesting the Israel Defense Force’s conduct in the territories.
Both motions were defeated overwhelmingly, as was a motion introduced by Abdel Wahab Darousha, sole member of the newly formed Arab Democratic List, protesting the IDF’s incursion into southern Lebanon.
