op-ed: Netanyahu.. stop and think

There has been much talk about the emergency Israeli "cabinet" meeting that was held two days ago; To discuss "ways to respond to the recent wave of operations." Especially the Hawara and Hebron operations, and there were many leaks about the discussions that took place and the decisions taken by the conferees, most notably the mandate to address the field situation by Prime Minister Netanyahu and his Minister of War Galant. Immediately, the Israeli media and analysts directed by the security and intelligence services dealt with the forms of military plans and possible scenarios with the intent of misleading and distracting efforts, as evidenced by Netanyahu reprimanding the officials in the cabinet for their many leaks of the details of the meetings, noting that the members of the council themselves do not know the real details, which only Netanyahu and Gallant know about, as they were authorized to act.


Regardless of the debates and quarrels that took place in the meeting, especially between Minister of War Galant and Minister of Security Ben Gvir, the decision to attack the directors of the attacks and the appropriate timing for that was taken, and how to implement it rests with Netanyahu and Galant. What will they do? They have more than planned and implemented aggressive tactical and strategic scenarios and plans in recent years, such as raids, invasions, arrests, field executions, collective punishment, displacement of residents, and house demolitions. They failed, by their own admission, to stop the growing resistance in the West Bank. Rather, the resistance increased in strength, developed, and spread.


What will they do more than what their ancestors did 75 years ago, when their occupation, during the Nakba period in 1948, took control of 774 Palestinian villages and cities, and 531 of them were completely destroyed, and what remains was subjected to the occupation entity and its laws. This purification process was accompanied by the commission of  zionist gangs carried out more than 51 massacres against the Palestinians, which led to the death of more than 15,000 Palestinians. Continuous of bloodshed, detention centers and prisons were filled, the people were made homeless, and more than that, they are persecuted in exile, and the wounds deepened, but the Palestinian quickly gathered his body parts, bandaged his wounds, and set his sights on one goal: Resisting the occupation, no matter how high the prices and sacrifices, and its eternal decision was announced publicly. Since that date, Israel has not stopped consolidating its occupation with military force and committing crimes and massacres. It has implemented and continues to implement aggressive plans and scenarios to no avail. On the other hand, the Palestinian people stand firm on their land and resist with their modest capabilities, relying on their will and determination, and courage while the number of his martyrs exceeded one hundred thousand.


The question is: What if Netanyahu and his Minister of War Gallant (who is currently in the United States of America to collect donations for the army as they claim?! And who is forbidden by Prime Minister Netanyahu from meeting his American counterpart or any other American official) carried out their threats and implemented all aggressive scenarios in order to prevent the occurrence of commando operations. Then these operations continued despite all of that ?
