Israel is not ready to carry out the next further redeployment scheduled for later this week, according to a spokesman for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Aviv Bushinsky said the premier spoke with President Clinton about the need for a delay, which Bushinsky said could last as long as “a week, two weeks, a month.” Political observers say Netanyahu cannot carry out the redeployment until he resolves the political crisis that threatens to topple his coalition.
