Oh, and I found out the answer to my question.
Arab Israelis are also forbidden by Israeli law from entering area A.

This whole approach to laws is way too nonchalant and paternalistic about people's rights.

Ben - I like the way you think!

"wither if they are Israeli or Palestinians such sign, if it was in Denmark or other contry people well only ecept it ,just if thear are an epadami like beards flouanza or colira"

I agree. That was my point. Thank you.

Basil,
I know it's an Israeli sign. I didn't say anything about Palestinian law here (yet...).
I am criticising ISRAEL for this.

The sign is rather clear, Yigal, it is an Israeli law. It says, and I read it twice, "Illegal entry by Israeli law". It didn't say by Palestinian law. You could argue that the Israeli Government is violating the law of its Jewish citizens who want to enter since the law originated with the State of Israel. I checked into it, and it said that it is an Israeli law. Essentially, PA security are supposed to hand in Israelis to the Israeli Government if they come in to PA administered areas.

Israeli enters Jericho; returned to Israel


Published: 02.04.09, 09:28 / Israel News



An Israeli citizen accidentally entered the West Bank city of Jericho overnight. The man was detained by Palestinian security forces and Civil Administration officers and turned over to Israeli police.



The IDF reiterates that Israelis are forbidden from entering areas under the Palestinian Authority's control (Area A), and are strongly advised against entering Area B territories. (Efrat Weiss)

I'm with Ben.

No need to make excuses for the inexcusable.
The solution to those "security problems" is not preventing the innocent from exercising their rights,
but preventing the violence in a way that defends the rights of the innocent.

This kind of thing prevents coexistence from getting started.
As does accepting this as normal.

It is probably for security reasons or what have you. The Israeli government doesn't want Jews going to West Bank towns. Both the PA and Israel don't want to take any chances, I am assuming.
