The population’s access to weapons will be facilitated and the home of the synagogue attacker will be destroyed: Israel’s response to the latest attacks

Thousands of Israelis have taken to the streets of Tel Aviv in protest against legal reform announced by the Netanyahu government. These are measures that seek to give Parliament more power and annul the counterweight of the Supreme Court. “We are here to protect Israeli democracy in order to protect both Israeli and Palestinian citizens,” a protester said.

the banners ridicule the controversial and far-right Minister of the Interior, Itamar el Gavir, whom the Palestinians, and also many Israelis, blame for the escalation of violence in the area. “It is clearly an extreme right-wing government with a very clear racist component that intends to annex the entire West Bank,” Teresa Aranguren, an expert journalist on the Middle East, stresses in this regard.

The indignation of the population is mixed with mourning for the victims, since the dripping of blood does not stop. This Sunday, an armed Palestinian was killed by settlers in the West Bank, and in Jerusalem, a 13-year-old boy wounded two Israelis with a firearm.

Meanwhile, the Netanyahu government has announced six new measures against the Palestiniansamong which is the revocation of social security and benefits of the families of Palestinians accused of terrorism. “The only thing they have is a residence permit, as if they were emigrants in their own land, and that residence permit can be revoked in multiple ways,” says Teresa Aranguren.

In addition, among the measures announced by Israel is the destruction of the home of the man who killed seven people in a synagogue from Jerusalem, and goes to facilitate access to weapons to the population.

The UN has condemned Israel’s raid on Jenin, and this Sunday the Pope has called for dialogue between the two parties, although the efforts of the International Community seem insufficient. Aranguren defends the respect that “we must put pressure on Israel, which is the occupying power and is the one that is breaking the UN resolutions.” And it is that the balance is atrocious, with 32 Palestinians killed and seven Israelis in a January that has bathed the entire region in pain.
