Judean Answer to Erev–Rav Governments? “Settler Heroes” – “Unhinged Youth Rebels”

Do We Have the Makings of a Growing Contingent of “Settler Heroes” Able to Lead a Government? And Able to Attract Supporters; Could They Attract “Regular Israelis”? And Are There Other Israelis  That are Fed-up With the “System” of Erev Rav Leadership That Rules Like a Non-Jewish Nation. 
Is it Time for a Judean Leadership to Bring the People Back to the Torah Way of Living?

WHAT IS THE UNDERLYING TRUTH BEHIND THIS ARTICLE?

timesofIsrael and The leadership of the hardline West Bank settlement of Yitzhar reportedly cut its communications with the entire upper echelon of Israel Defense Forces officials last week, before a series of violent riots that have seen settlers attack and injure soldiers.

Unrest between settlers and the military has escalated in and around Yitzhar since last Wednesday, with multiple incidents of rock-throwing and vandalism, as well as arrests of settlers and threats to senior commanders.

DOES THIS LOOK LIKE THE “YOUTHS” ARE IN CONFLICT WITH THE IDF?
WHAT REALLY HAPPENED AND WHY?

LOOKS MORE LIKE COMPLAINING
ATTACKING?
The Kan public broadcaster reported Tuesday that less than 48 hours before Sunday morning clashes in which a soldier was struck by a rock, the Yitzhar secretariat issued a notice to residents saying the community was freezing its communications with the army over the latter’s refusal to cancel an order temporarily evicting one of the local residents from the settlement.

“Due to the fact that, unfortunately, the secretariat’s request [from [head of the IDF’s Central Command Maj. Gen. Nadav Padan] to cancel the administrative order against Yitzhar resident Neria Zarog was not approved, the community is freezing the communication with the army — apart from emergencies — from the level of brigade commander and up until that situation is changed,” the statement said.

It added that the decision did not include the routine activities to secure the settlement’s security.

In its letter to Padan last month, the Yitzhar secretariat warned of “unrest” if he doesn’t overturned his decision to sign off an administrative order barring 21-year-old Zarog from most of the West Bank for three months, pending a hearing. The administrative order allows Zarog to reside in the Kochav Yaakov settlement where his parents live, but bars the married father of two from being in contact with 16 friends from Yitzhar.

According to a defense official who spoke last month to The Times of Israel on the condition of anonymity, Zarog is a “violent extremist well known to security forces” who has taken part in altercations against Palestinians as well as IDF troops. Zarog has denied participating in such activities.

Zarog has refused to leave the area despite the order against him and was seen Monday night in Yitzhar dancing with Samaria Regional Council chairman Yossi Dagan at a religious event.

His [Zarog’s] fate appears to be at the root of the current unrest.

A pair of arrests last week further angered hardline residents of Yitzhar and the surrounding outposts — the first on Wednesday, when security forces nabbed a teenager suspected of starting a fire in a Palestinian-owned field located near his home. The minor’s attorney claimed the arresting officer from the Golani brigade had used unnecessary force in apprehending his client, who was released two days later to house arrest.

That evening, a second teen was arrested in the Yitzhar area after the army said he had threatened Golani infantry brigade commander Lieutenant-Colonel Ayoub Kayouf.

The military said that the incident was taken care of with the cooperation of the Israel Police and local settler leadership, leading to the arrest of the youth.

While there had been reports that the Yitzhar youth had assaulted Kayouf, the leadership of the settlement reiterated in a statement that there was no suspicion that the minor had physically attacked the officer, and touted its cooperation with the authorities. The statement railed at the timing of the arrest — on Friday night, during the Jewish Sabbath — calling it “a gross violation of individual rights as well as the sanctity of Shabbat.”

Also on Wednesday, Israeli rights groups reported that a gang of masked settlers armed with crowbars violently assaulted a group of activists, among them an 80-year-old rabbi [reform], who were assisting Palestinian farmers in the northern West Bank with their harvest.

The situation escalated overnight Saturday, when some 30 settlers hurled stones at troops and punctured tires of military vehicles in the Kumi Ori outpost next to Yitzhar, according to the IDF. One soldier was lightly injured by a rock and received medical treatment at the scene, the military said.

The army responded by using riot dispersal means and firing in the air. No arrests were announced.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is also defense minister, and politicians and other officials from both sides of the political divide denounced the violent incident. Labor-Gesher leader Amir Peretz on Monday demanded a powerful Knesset committee convene to address the attack on soldiers by settlers, calling it “terror in the full sense of the word.”

On Sunday, a Border Police battalion was ordered to take up position near the Yitzhar settlement as a deterrent against further violent activities by residents of the outposts in the area, Kan reported. The border guards were similarly deployed in April 2014, after a string of attacks and acts of vandalism from the Yitzhar settlement and surrounding outposts, including one case in which residents attacked an IDF encampment.

On Monday, the IDF declared the site of the attack to be a closed military zone, meaning only residents would be allowed to enter and exit the area.

Multiple settler leaders on Sunday denounced the violence and attempted to disown it, claiming that it had been instigated by teenagers who had mostly come from outside Yitzhar and don’t represent local residents. The Yitzhar secretariat said it would take action to kick them out.

However, less than 48 hours after those clashes, on Monday evening, a group of 10 settlers again threw rocks and bottles of paint at Border Police in the same area.

Commentary:

*פרשנות צה״ל צריך לבחון מחדש את יחסו לאלימות המתנחלים "The residents of Yitzhar serve in the reserve, volunteers and good Zionist people. It is unfortunate that there are rioters who take out the libel of the community and harm the entire settlement enterprise," the leader of the Jewish Home Party, Rafi Peretz, said on Sunday. Former Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked also noted that Yitzhar is leading the country in a number of kidney donations from living people. Major General Peden also adhered to this line, and in criticizing the events of the violence on Saturday night, insisted that the attack was carried out by a "handful" of outlaws who did not represent Yitzhar as a whole. Peter Lerner, a former IDF spokesman for the foreign media, called Paden's statement "weak.”  Source: zman

*Think about Gush Katif and who were the ones that ousted the people from their homes and till this day no replacement community was ever built for the. Think of all the outposts that were built with synagogues and who were the force that came with bulldozers and destroyed their homes and their communities. These were Israelis destroying Israeli property owned by other Israelis. The IDF is to blame for a lot of wonky compass misfunctions as you had the likes of Benny Gantz who hates the settlers do the destruction as he smiled. He's not a builder of Israel but a destroyer of Israel. [while some former residents of Gush Katif have relocated, most are not]

*Where was the condemnation and call to action of the chief of staff two days ago when soldiers in an IDF jeep weer nearly lynched in a storm of stones thrown by hundreds of terrorists "near Ramallah" and the soldiers did not respond? why aren't those terrorists being violently arrested the next day? Why are those soldiers not in the brig for failure to respond?

*The Oslo generals look the other way when Arabs attack our soldiers and the soldiers are afraid to defend themselves because [o]f the insane rules of engagement. The Jews are defending themselves from a government that uses the army against them. If the Shabak gets involved we know that they will torture the Jewish teens using gestapo tactics the way they did with the youths tortured to admit to an Arab on Arab crime.

Same old, same old hatred of the PTB's who rule (the Erev Rav and the higher-ups of the IDF are the epitome of them). It comes down to the real Jews want a Jewish Eretz Yisrael as should be and promised by H' to His people Yisrael. The so-called Israelis want to be like all the other nations (which probably means so many are not true Jews and others have been so indoctrinated into the secular and G-Dless thinking). But, want to believe that we are now at the footsteps of Moshiach and somehow the time has come where the Ribono Shel Olam will see to it that the real Jews will win out.

Cannot help but wonder whether this is a domestic false flag event in Israel attempting to damage the Right Wing bloc in the event Elections are held for a 3rd time.

Granted, it is not as if the other side is any better due to maintaining an untenable status quo though it is something to take into consideration.
