i24NEWS commentator Zvi Yehezkeli argues that Israel is in a state of war in Judea and Samaria without the public realizing it. He criticizes the current security approach, which he claims has not changed since October 6, and calls for a policy change that includes defining the Palestinian Authority as an enemy, confiscating territories, and demolishing terrorists' homes.

i24NEWS commentator Zvi Yehezkeli argues that Israel is in a state of war in Judea and Samaria, without the Israeli public realizing it. According to him, the current security approach has not changed since October 6, and the IDF operates with old tools that do not allow effective deterrence. Yehezkeli, who himself lives in Judea and Samaria, criticizes the 'fabric of life' policy and the reliance on checkpoints like the Bel checkpoint, which he says stem from High Court decisions. He claims that terrorism begins with Palestinian education and in mosques, and that military operations in Tulkarm and Jenin are insufficient. The commentator calls for a change in perception that includes defining the Palestinian Authority as an enemy, confiscating territories, and fully demolishing terrorists' homes. He warns that without change, the events of October 7 could also occur in Judea and Samaria.
