« Palestinians Get Bold | Main | Call for a 3rd Intifada » Not An Intifada Yet
By Micah Halpern
Saturday December 15, 2012 I've Been Thinking: It is not quite an Intifada -- not yet. But if the Israeli army does not properly handle the unrest in the West Bank it will turn into an Intifada. Over a thousand people marched toward the check point in Hebron and dozens others marched in towns and cities throughout the West Bank. The PA sanctioned rallies were called to officially celebrate the 25th anniversary of the founding of Hamas. It was a dangerous decision the PA made to permit Hamas to march because the inevitable violence could have turned not only against Israel, but also against the PA itself. The rioters threw Molotov cocktails and rocks. Soldiers fired tear gas. On Wednesday, in Hebron, a female border guard saw a young boy pull a handgun on her fellow soldier and point it to the back of his head. The Israeli border guard instinctively drew up her weapon and shot and killed the boy. It was later discovered that the gun in the hand of the boy was a toy. The picture of the Israeli border guard has been sent around the internet with the word "criminal" splashed on it and a warning that "we know who you are." With each passing day the anger and the violence increases. The tide has to be reversed to avoid another Intifada. The Palestinian Authority does not realize what they have unleashed. The PA still does not get it. The never will. Read my new book THUGS. It's easy. Just click. To reprint my essays contact sales (at) www.featurewell.com 4 June 2017 12:13 PM in Thoughts
