MK Itamar Ben Gvir returned his office to the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood in East Jerusalem at this time (Sunday), after the fire that broke out on Friday in the house of a Jewish family in Sheikh Jarrah, which was allegedly caused by arson.
This is not the first time Ben Gvir has taken such a step.
Last May, he set up a tent and a table in Sheikh Jarrah, which he defined as a bureau.
He then claimed that he took the course because the police did not fulfill their duty to protect the Jewish residents in the neighborhood, who suffered from constant harassment.
The move provoked angry reactions and clashes between local residents and police, and Ben Gvir then responded to former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's request to evacuate the bureau in exchange for his promise that the police would increase its presence in the area.
This is Tal Yeshuvayev's house, Arab rioters have burned his car 9 times already, and during Shabbat they burned his house.
Miraculously the family did not stay at her home on Saturday, thus saving her life.
Where are the human rights knights you are now silent about?
Where are the Israeli police and the failed commissioner? Why are you waiting for a disaster to happen? Jewish life has become a no-brainer!

Tonight, too, Ben Gvir claims that the police are abandoning the Jewish residents in the neighborhood, and that the family whose home they allegedly tried to burn is suffering from constant harassment.
The fire occurred after numerous arsons of the family vehicle.
Just last week, police arrested several suspects in the vehicle’s latest arson incident.
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
