In April 2002, Ilan Paz commanded the operation in which Marwan Barghouti was apprehended.
From 2002 - 2005, Ilan Paz headed the Israeli military Civil Administration in Beit Ill near Ramallah.
Paz is known among the illegal Jewish colonists in the areas surrounding Ramallah as 'Binyamin' because he was a commander of the Binyamina Brigade.
From 1978 - 1995, Paz served as a deputy in the Naval Unit, and he was a former commander of Air Force special Unit and "anti-terror compact", death squads "Mustariven" working under cover within the IDF in the Palestinian cities and towns in the middle of the civilians.
Paz himself murdered numerous Palestinians in the West Bank cities. He is involved in many murders against the civilian populations in the territories and as well in the neighbouring Arab countries.
Ilan Paz invented and put in place the criminal system of illegal checkpoints all over the West Bank between and inside the Palestinians villages, and he also invented the discriminatory road regime which restricts the movement of the Palestinian vehicles on the roadways.
Since he headed the occupation , the Palestinians in the West Bank have been denied freedom of movement between the Palestinian cities, towns and villages, and inside them as well.
Under the command of Paz, the road block which separates Ramallah from East Jerusalem was put in place. He also put in place the infamous the Qalandia "checkpoint", which effectively cuts the West Bank in two halves and has become part of the apartheid wall.
Paz was released from the Civil Administration in June or July, 2005.
Currently (April 2008) Paz works on projects " political, defence and economic " connected with the Palestinians. He has allied with other Israeli criminals tired of being on the front lines of their genocide against Palestinians in "The Council for Peace and Security" in Ramat Hasharon, in what can be qualified as a project for milking European Union funds and serving as a cover for his 28 years long career of perpetrating crimes against Humanity, Genocide and War crimes.
Ramat Hasharon is a city located on Israeli's central coastal strip in the south of the Sharon region in the north of Tel Aviv.
On 13 Feb 2008, Paz the murderer stated to Israeli Radio "The roadblocks create a reality that encourages terrorism. We should study the usefulness and efficiency of these roadblocks relative to the costs they produce". As a typical psychopath, he conveniently forgot to mention that he is the criminal who invented and instituted these roadblocks in first place.
