TEL AVIV, July 11, 2009 (WAFA)- Yariv Oppenheimer of the Israeli Peace Now demanded the Attorney General Menachem Mazuz investigate activities of two right-wing youth movements involved in starting illegal outposts: 'Their activities cost the taxpayers thousands of shekels', Ynet news said.

Peace Now has declared war on Hilltop Youth – will the State join in? In an appeal to Attorney General Menachem Mazuz, Peace Now demanded Friday that an investigation be opened against two prominent right-wing youth organizations that focus their energies on establishing outposts in the West Bank.

'These games of cat and mouse of the Hilltop Youth cost the taxpayer thousands of shekels,' said Peace Now Secretary General Yariv Oppenheimer. 'Without anyone claiming personal responsibility for these hooligans, the outpost phenomenon will only continue to get worse.'

The two organizations being targeted – Land of Israel Faithful and Youth for the Land of Israel – deal with establishing new outposts and re-establishing dismantled outposts in the West Bank.
