		Gideon Ezra, a newly-appointed Israeli minister, is believed to be an extremely racist Israeli veteran official, who took sensitive posts within the Israeli military establishment including the army and intelligence.
		Ezra, the new minister, was born in the occupied Jerusalem in 1937, after his family had emigrated from Iraq and resided in Palestine then.
		From 1955 to 1958, Ezra served in the Israeli army’s unit of paratroops, then he moved to the Israeli Shabak (intelligence apparatus), and remained there from 1962 to 1992, ascending various posts, the latest of which was the deputy-chief of Shabak.

	Eurabian Times: Ezra fears it may be time to collect settlers' weapons (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Internal Security Minister Gideon Ezra said Tuesday that a politician closely associated with the settler movement approached him recently and suggested that police collect now all weapons in the possession of settlers to be evacuated under the disengagement plan.
		Ezra said the politician told him he was afraid the settlers would use their weapons to fire on Palestinians and it will be interpreted as an attack on the evacuating forces.
		Ezra is probably the only person in the Israeli security apparatus who is working on the assumption that the IDF won't be fired on when they come to cleanse the Jewish towns in Gaza and northern Samaria.

		Another possibility is to ignore what Ezra said: What's the relevance of a low-life utterance from a marginal minister whose level of speech only casts a gloomy light on the institution he came from, the Shin Bet security service, and on his current place at the cabinet table?
		On second thought, though, we should be thankful to Ezra: He has provided an apt description of the reality in which we live.
		So we have to be grateful to MK Ezra, who with his crude language, exposed the naked truth.
