We have crossed the threshold of 100 murdered in Arab society.
This number is supposed to shake the country, it is supposed to lead to the establishment of a state commission of inquiry, but in our case it does not exactly matter;
The victims are from the margins of the margins, from the social margins, from the geographical margins and from the political margins.
According to statistics, the number of Arab victims is 107 - including civilians killed by security forces and residents of East Jerusalem - but in practice the number of murders that the Israeli police are supposed to deal with reaches 100 victims.
The numbers are no longer surprising, nor will they shake anyone, the world as usual will behave and in Arab society they will wait for the next murder case.
It might be double, maybe a triangle, maybe of a mother next to her children, maybe of an innocent citizen walking down the street or of a young man sitting in the arms of his family on the porch.

We no longer know where the wrong or stray or deliberate bullet will come from, what we probably know is that a significant portion of those weapons, especially bullets, come from the IDF and security forces, and it is very strange that the IDF has not yet begun investigating the leak of weapons to criminals.
The obvious question is whether even in the event that weapons and ammunition spill into the Palestinian Authority territories, the situation will continue to be a casualty count. The answer is quite clear.
Many of the murders that have occurred in recent years are known cases, and many pay a price for blood revenge, but a sovereign state that has arms and bodies in charge of the safety of its citizens must not accept the continued bloodshed.

Although history will still judge the failures of the Israel Police in dealing with the phenomenon of violence in Arab society, it is already clear that it has failed miserably in its role and function, and for those who outline or dictate and lead the policy, stop for a moment and recalculate a course.
Especially the police, who have all the power in their hands, to do so.
There is a conspiracy in Arab society, which is widespread in light of the complexity of the relationship between the country's Arab citizens and the state since its inception, according to which those behind the supply of weapons as well as shooting and alarming crime growth are the state's security arms.
This was reinforced following statements by officials in the Israel Police, who claimed that most of the criminal organizations were collaborators with the GSS.

The continuing riots of violence, murder and crime in Arab society, and especially the lack of any deterrence or ability to prevent this phenomenon, certainly make the simple citizen believe in the conspiracy that the GSS is behind the phenomenon, in order to disintegrate Arab society and turn it into a criminal society with great chaos. In order to mobilize the Arabs for the army and the security forces as a refuge and a form of defense.
In any case, we have now reached 100 murder victims, even before we end the tenth month of 2021, indicating a gloomy and difficult forecast for the end of the year and next year, according to which neither crime nor violence will be eradicated in the next two or three years.
