UPDATE
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Wednesday issued an administrative arrest warrant for a Jewish resident of Samaria’s Binyamin Region, drawing the ire of right-wing activists and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir.
“The third administrative arrest warrant issued to a settler since the outbreak of the war. Someone has got confused and forgot who is the enemy and who is the beloved,” Ben-Gvir tweeted. GALLANT BENDING TO BIDEN! When will this guy wake up??

Weapons confiscated from Judea and Samaria farmers
Right-wing activists are criticizing IDF Central Command Commander Yehuda Fox [again] after he ordered the confiscation of weapons from several farm owners in Judea and Samaria.
According to them, the weapons were given to the farmers, former IDF combat soldiers, who for the past few years have been contending with constant attacks and agricultural terrorism by Arabs. At the time of publishing, at least seven weapons had been confiscated from the farm owners.
"The confiscation of weapons that were lawfully owned and were our only tool for self-defense for years against dozens of Arab attacks against the farms is the abandonment of the farms' residents who are a defensive line for the entire settlement.
Unfortunately, it would appear that the Central Command Commander is working hand in hand with anarchist leftist organizations who run the 'settler violence' campaign and often harass the agricultural farms that stop the Arab takeover of state lands.
It is difficult to ignore the feeling that the confiscation of weapons in the middle of a war is meant to cause the farm residents to abandon their pioneering activities and leave the land so the PA can take over. This is a very dangerous and reckless decision, and we call on anyone who can to stop this crime," the farms stated.
In a conversation with Arutz Sheva-Israel National News, a military official explained that "it must be understood that anyone who wears a uniform and receives a weapon from the military represents the State of Israel and the IDF. The weapon is to protect the village or farm from terrorists and not to solve criminal conflicts.
"THEY ARE TERRORISTS!"
Unfortunately, in several incidents, they did not summon security forces to attend to the incident and took the law into their own hands. In places where we took the weapons, we ensured there was a security arrangement in the area."

Sounds like...even looks like...criminal conflicts are legal in Israel, doesn't it? Are we a truly law-abiding nation, or aren't we?
An impartial observer would think that it shouldn't matter whether the point of conflict is criminal or terrorist. Law needs to be enforced. Otherwise, it could be said of us that we approve of criminality in the territories we administer, whether we approve of them or not.
Are we really doing more for the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians with the support of the world's leading nations than we are for ourselves?
I can't believe I'm writing this. I'm not a lawyer, just a regular citizen. But a lot of real law seems to be written on the basis of common decency, even though we all know that a lot of the things that require punishment are wrong on their face.
Like the 3 university presidents who replied using one expression or another that punishment for antisemitic hate speech calling for GENOCIDE is "context-dependent" (one of them actually said this phrase) earlier today.
Here's the link: Heads of 3 top US colleges refuse to say calling for genocide of Jews is harassment
Dare I say: Maybe Amalek has to strike first in order to justify our elimination of him.
OR maybe he did, on SIMCHATH TORAH, Oct. 7, 2023.
The perpetrators of the SHOAH went through several steps, including namecalling, dehumanization by many means, and finally killing.
The same thing is happening in AMERICA right now.
The 3 colleges represented in the above article were: Harvard, MIT and University of Pennsylvania. All IVY LEAGUE.
Your analyzing is on to something.
Write an article to that effect and I’ll send it to all the NY people I know!
I already wrote something to a Keh I’ll a when they advertised ANOTHER NEW SHUL GOING UP!
Where are their heads???
Good Shabbos and A Freilichin Chanukah!
BTW did you see that hundreds of Arab beasts SURRENDERED to the IDF
Think the answer can be found in the interviews of JP & Rav Bar Chaim.
Even a child can see through all this.
The higher echelons in the tzava, if it wasn't so tragic, are a joke.
