Violence in the Arab community and how to exploit it hidden to establish the National Guard

With the continuation of the killings and indiscriminate and unjustified violence directed against members of the Arab community in the country, the follow-up committee’s move to call for a general strike over the ninth and tenth days of June was a correct step and the Arab community should have responded to it on a large scale, as all Evidence that the response did not reach more than 50%, and this matter deserves careful consideration and re-mobilization.


In this context, informed sources in the follow-up committee confirmed to us that, in light of the absence of security and safety in the Arab society and the general feeling of tension and fear among the Arab masses in the country, and the failure of state institutions to carry out their duties and responsibilities seriously and practically, in the face of the increasing manifestations and phenomena of violence and crime, It has become important for this society to work to escalate the struggle and confront this painful reality that we are facing and that is practiced and imposed systematically and officially on our Palestinian Arab society at home.


The killing that was carried out in Jaffa Nazareth is considered a massacre by all standards, as it claimed the lives of innocent people, children and youth under the age of thirty, and it is a chilling crime.


A similar crime was carried out in France against four children, and another crime in the United States against young people who graduated from universities in the United States, which provoked French and American public opinion there on a large scale, and the French Prime Minister visited the scene of the crime and the perpetrators were arrested within hours.


As for Israel, the muscle-flexing process of Minister Itamar Ben Gvir and Inspector General Kobi Shabtai, in addition to more than 200 accompanying policemen, arrived near the scene of the crime, to give sermons and lectures related to what this new government will do against Arab citizens, represented by the establishment of the National Guard, which is to be established at the initiative Ben Gvir within months.


It can be said that this minister clearly took advantage of the axis of crime in Jaffa, Nazareth, to theorize about the importance of establishing this National Guard, and the elected and unelected Arab leaders do not give sufficient importance to the seriousness of such statements, as there are those who call on the Shin Bet to come and move in order to solve the mystery of the widespread murders. Every day in Arab society, and there are those who have reservations about this, and there are those who say that the police have the means, the staff, and the technology to solve violent crimes and uncover the perpetrators.


As for the reality of the matter, it is that the Shin Bet has existed and operated for decades within Arab society at the level of cities, villages and various Arab brigades, and it cooperates closely with the police, as they classify what the security threat to Israel is and take appropriate steps against it with one signal, whether it is from the police or the Shin Bet. Against any Arab outlet, and classify it as security or criminal. If it has a security connection, the Shin Bet takes action, but if it has a criminal connection, the two do not move.


Recently, the Shin Bet’s branches have also begun to move in their activities towards and towards the West Bank with the aim of confronting the third intifada, which is accelerating and escalating these days, especially after the government approved quartet settlement plans to increase settlement construction in the next four years there.


In this context, this security leadership, headed by Itamar Ben Gvir, Minister of National Security, is working hard to establish an additional security body that will further tighten the screws on the Arab citizens of the country. Mixed and later developed to work in the West Bank.


Ben Gvir and his movement are pressing a lot to establish this National Guard, which will include several thousand armed volunteers from old army officers, retired Shin Bet officers and retired Border Guard officers, who will join this guard with a high monthly salary, as they will tour and arrive in Arab villages and cities with the aim of inspecting, investigating and collecting Information and even stopping suspects, and all of this will serve as an arm of the police and the Shin Bet, as it can be said that this security institution, consisting of the police and the Shin Bet, has privatized security work within the Arab community through this new National Guard.


Bin Ghafir is trying hard to obtain huge budgets, some of which he obtained in order to establish this National Guard, and the rampant crime operations in the Arab sector, which the police do not take any action to prevent and stop, is one of the justifications for expediting the establishment of this National Guard and obtaining more budgets.


Ben Gvir is also trying to justify the establishment of such a guard internally in the Jewish street, and the recruited Hebrew media is supporting him in this, as he says that one of his most important upcoming tasks is to work hard on the Judaization of the Galilee and pass the policy of governance in the Negev against the Arab citizens there, and the Arab community is waiting for more steps Related to the Judaization of the Galilee, those procedures that have become public and clear, and foremost among them is the expansion of the admission committees in the Jewish communities here, to increase them from three hundred housing units to a thousand housing units, as these three hundred Jews will decide to increase their housing units from three hundred to a thousand housing units without including any An Arab citizen, and if all these gatherings increase, the Galilee will turn into a Jewish majority in a short period of time, and this is what Ben Gvir wants with the help of the National Guard.


In the past, during the era of the previous government, huge funds were allocated for the Judaization of the Galilee, but they were not used properly due to the government's inability to attract a sufficient number of Jewish citizens to these areas.


As for Ben Gvir today, in his capacity as Minister of National Security, he and his staff blatantly neglect what is happening in Arab society in terms of violence and massacres. A plan and strategy that includes all the foundations and structural and essential factors related to how to combat violence and build a strategy for these aggressive plans against this society, which are crucial for our existence in this country.
