Top Israeli lawyer warns IDF: 'pullout could fail'

A top Israeli attorney has warned the army that they may fail in carrying out the withdrawal from Gaza.

Attorney Talia Sasson, who made headlines last month with a summary she submitted to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon at his request about Israel's construction of settlements, did not specify what scenes forces conducting the pullout were likely to face in her report to the army, co-written by the Israeli Institute of Democracy. But she said soldiers should prepare for "radical scenarios" from settlers.

According to Sasson, a planned Israeli pullout from Gaza could fail if Jewish settlers succeed in thwarting the withdrawal with violence.

Although settler leaders have condemned the use of violence as a means of resistance, security officials warn of possible shooting attacks by settlers during the pullout.
