Title RABIN PRESSURES PLO AFTER ATTACKS Prime Minister and Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin, Deputy Defense Minister Mordechai Gur, IDF Chief of Staff Ehud Barak and OC Southern Command Maj-Gen. Matan Vilnay visited Kissufim Junction in the Gaza Strip, 15 August 1994, the scene of two terrorist attacks a day earlier in which one Israeli was killed and six were injured.
Scope and content The visit was intended to impress upon the Palestinian police and Yasser Arafat the necessity of going to all lengths to bring a halt to such attacks. At Kissufim Rabin gave his warnings in no uncertain terms - "Israel cannot consent to a situation wherein the political process continues, but the Palestinian side does not fulfill its part in it or at least demonstrate a serious will and effort to minimize terror...The entire agreement with the PLO is predicated on the understanding that the PLO must combat terrorism and its perpetrators. If Yasser Arafat is unable to fulfill his part, why should Israel continue implementing agreements when there is no certainty he could later comply with them?". On the same day - as if to show an attempt to adhere to Rabin's words - the Palestinian police clamped down on Hamas in the autonomous areas and arrested more than 20 activists of the terrorist organization. The "rejectionist” Palestinian organisations imediately accused Arafat of "cooperating with Rabin”.
