The Israeli "breakwater" and the Palestinian "tsunami"!!

Written by: Dr. Asaad Abdul Rahman


A qualitative development is taking place in the resistance in the occupied West Bank, where we notice a significant increase in the actions of the Palestinian resistance in all its forms. One of the most prominent features of the current resistance operations in the West Bank is the merging of the fighters of the Palestinian movements and factions into unified armed groups that began with the "Jenin Battalion" in the Jenin camp, the "Lions' Den" group in Nablus, the "Hawks' Den" in Tulkarem, and the "Usud al-Haq" group. in Hebron.

These groups constituted a new development in the political scene in the West Bank, forcing the Israeli occupation forces to intensify their military activities, reintroducing the policy of assassinating activists, while continuing the policy of collective punishment, in an attempt to eliminate the escalation of resistance activity there, which the occupation was forced to admit in many recent reports. By the fire of the Palestinian resistance, through these armed groups. According to security sources for the Hebrew "Wala" website, "the state of the Palestinian popular embrace of these groups is a source of great concern for the occupation." And in this lies the basis of success.

In light of the Israeli “breakwater” operations, the occupation forces suffered the failure of what they called a “lightning and geographically limited campaign to eliminate these Palestinian groups” and thus increased the brutality of their actions, especially in light of the success of the commando operations and the elements that carried them out in embarrassing the occupation army, as was evident in Operation "Settlement" / "Ma'aleh Adumim" settlement east of Jerusalem, in which Uday Al-Tamimi ascended, while the occupation was besieging the Shuafat refugee camp and searching for him there. Hebrew media considered the execution of the martyr Uday al-Tamimi a new operation, "at a time when the entire Israeli security system was looking for him as a catastrophic failure for the Israeli intelligence service "Shabak" and all Israeli security services, and "requires sharp and quick conclusions." "Israel Today" newspaper said. For 11 days, intensive searches were conducted for Tamimi, his relatives were arrested and interrogated, and people suspected of helping him were arrested and interrogated, but he nevertheless somehow managed to escape from the hands of the experienced Shin Bet coordinators and arrived in the Ma’ale Adumim settlement area armed, which constitutes a failure for the security apparatus. General Security and other security agencies that participated in the search for him.
An Israeli report issued by the "Institute for National Security Research" at Tel Aviv University finds that "the pattern of current Israeli practices against the escalation of Palestinian operations in the West Bank constitutes a fertile ground for the growth of the spirit of Palestinian resistance" and may even lead to an explosion of widespread violence, which constitutes the real strategic challenge facing Israel. . Despite the large number of detainees and the large increase in the number of (dead) and wounded Palestinians, the spirit of Palestinian resistance has been strengthened and spread in the West Bank.” An expanding awareness of struggle, nourished by the high level of violent friction with the Israeli army, and by a sense of success, especially by the authoritarian vacuum of the Palestinian Authority.
These Palestinian groups are new trees growing in the shadows of the expanding forest of armed resistance, and their youth is a mellow chapter in the spirit of the Palestinian resistance, which is taking shape in the spirit of youth who threw away the differences and divisions of their factions and movements, and instead took up arms, which unites and does not divide. However, the matter should not be limited to commando action alone, and it is required that this military resistance succeed in efforts to expand and ensure the popular incubator, and transfer this revolutionary situation to the level of mass uprising and comprehensive civil disobedience. And if this is achieved, it will be like the Palestinian "tsunami" that - alone - will break the Israeli "breakwater", which constitutes a qualitative step on the road to ending the occupation.
