The targeted killings have stopped - and the vow of October 7 is in danger

Israel has halted the targeted killings of Nukhba terrorists who participated in the October 7 massacre, following a demand in negotiations with the 'Peace Council'. According to security officials' assessment, about 400 terrorists have not yet been eliminated or arrested. The author, Nadav Shragai, claims that the suspension harms the moral commitment to the families of the murdered, kidnapped, and fallen, and that crimes against humanity should not be subject to negotiations. He cites Operation 'Wrath of God' after the 1972 Munich massacre as proof of Israel's commitment to pursue terrorists. The article emphasizes that the killings have been suspended since August 2, when Abdallah Abu al-Tayef and Salem Jamal Abu Labad were eliminated, and now requires the approval of the Chief of Staff and the political echelon, instead of only the approval of the GOC. The author calls not to grant immunity or refuge to terrorists, and quotes the verse 'I will pursue my enemies and overtake them, and I will not turn back until they are destroyed'.
