JERUSALEM - Attorney General Menachem Mazuz said Monday he does not rule out the possibility of opening criminal investigations against rabbis and public figures who call for military insubordination. Speaking specifically about two former chief rabbis, Avraham Shapira and Mordechai Eliyahu, both of whom have called on security forces to refuse orders to implement the Gaza disengagement program, Mazuz said their calls were “not alright,” and left the option open to press charges in future. “The fact that we have made no decision on the matter does not mean the matter is closed,” he said. “It is an open issue, and we can decide in another two weeks or another six weeks to open a retroactive investigation, once we see the damage their calls causes.” In the past, Mazuz has voiced his opinion that the war against incitement and insubordination must be conducted in the public, educational and cultural spheres, rather than using extreme measures such as criminal indictments. 1,000 dollars to refuse The attorney general added he directed police to open an investigation against an organization that calls on soldiers to refuse orders to evacuate families from their homes in Gush Katif and the northern West Bank. The organization has pledged a USD 1,000 (about NIS 4550) reward to any soldier who refuses orders. Mazuz also spoke about the closing of Gush Katif to non-residents, saying he does not rule out re-opening the area. "If we can safely assume there will be no massive migration to the area, I see no reason to re-open the Gaza Strip. The current situation is very taxing on the entire system," he said.
