If US President Donald Trump’s grand statements of a plan to transfer 1.8 million Palestinians from the uninhabitable Gaza Strip hadn’t been said this week, public discourse would have focused much more than it had on a terrifying number: Seven.
Six Arab Israelis were killed in criminal violence incidents in the span of 24 hours between Sunday and Monday this week, with one more on Tuesday in what police suspect was a revenge hit.
Israel Police said last week that it was launching what it called a “large-scale” operation to combat crime in the sector; these seven deaths came one week later.
Dealing with Israeli Arab crime is a no-win situation.
ReplyDeleteIf they send in lots of Jewish police to handle the situation, the same Arabs who want something done will scream about "Occupation!" and "Jewish oppression!"
If they send in Arab police, well the Arabs won't rat on their own.
So Israel just doesn't bother.
