An Israeli commission headed by Justice Theodor Orr that investigated the events surrounding the deaths of 13 Palestinian Arab citizens of Israel during the October demonstrations and riots of 2000 (see October 2000 Events). The commission found that Israeli police used excessive force in quelling the riots and demonstrated prejudice against the Palestinian minority. In addition, the commission accused the government of neglect and bias with regard to its treatment of the Palestinian Arab Israeli population; however, it did not name individuals responsible for the killings.
