Deadly Restraint
Boaz Haetzni claims that the murder during a hike between Har Bracha and Havat Gilad was caused by the deadly restraint of security forces, who feared using violence against Arab rioters. He criticizes the 'settler violence' campaign, which he says paralyzes security forces and prevents them from protecting citizens.
In his article, Boaz Haetzni argues that the double murder during a group hike between Har Bracha and Havat Gilad last Friday was caused by the deadly restraint of security forces. According to him, the hikers did not provoke Palestinians and the route did not pass through Area A, but Arab rioters attacked them with stones and beatings. The security coordinator of Havat Gilad tried to repel them using his rifle as a club, which allowed the murderer to grab the weapon and kill two. Haetzni claims that the 'settler violence' campaign by far-left organizations paralyzes security forces, making them afraid to shoot and protect citizens. He compares the situation to the October 7 massacre, where gestures of reconciliation did not prevent the murder. The article criticizes the media and entities that despise settlements and inflate Jewish violence while concealing Arab violence.
