Functional sharing between the occupation army and the settlers' army!

"The situation has gone out of control," this is how political and military leaders in Israel justify their "inability" to stop the terrorism of settlers against the residents of villages and towns across the West Bank. This terrorism is fueled by systematic complicity that allows perpetrators to carry out acts of killing and intimidation, confiscate land, steal olive harvests, and prevent farmers from cultivating their land.
Since the early hours of yesterday, under an air cover that involved Apache and reconnaissance aircraft, alongside the deployment of three brigades of the army, a rolling military operation is taking place in Tubas, Tamun, Tayaseer, Aqaba, the Al-Far'a camp, the Wadi Al-Far'a, and the Bedouin encampments. Meanwhile, occupation soldiers forced many families to leave their homes until further notice, converting them into military barracks, while the educational process in an area inhabited by about 60,000 citizens came to a halt.
In Tubas, as in Gaza, the excuses are endless. The wide-scale incursion harbors political rather than security objectives, aiming to delineate borders and establish buffer zones separating Tubas from the northern Jordan Valley, in preparation for annexing the food basket of Palestine, along with its underground water resources, and imposing realities with the arrogance of power, in a frantic race among right-wing parties on the eve of the upcoming elections.
In the visible scenes on the ground, the intention is clear to undermine everything that arose from the Oslo Agreement, starting with drying up financial resources, confiscating clearance funds, striking the national economy by severing the relationship between Palestinian banks and Israeli banks at the end of this month, moving on to imposing control over the rural perimeter of cities, which is managed by the settlers' army, culminating in city centers that are subjected to daily incursions, confiscation, abuse, destruction of property, and executions, with both armies alternating in killing children and young people.
