Following the recent events and the fear of revenge attacks, the IDF announced the reinforcement of four battalions in the Yosh area.
You don't have to be a skilled intelligence person to understand that despite the vigilance and the many forces that will arrive in the area, traveling on the highways in Yosh will probably be less safe in the near future.
We received painful proof of this last night, in a rolling attack in the Bekaa during which an Israeli citizen was seriously injured.
The violent events in Hawara are nothing less than a blackout.
The unbridled rampage and the harming of the innocent - they are exactly the match that can ignite the fuel vapors that bubble up here as well in Judea and Samaria.
Deficiency of lights.

system failure
The violence of the Jewish rioters yesterday could cause the Palestinian public, the vast majority of which did not take part in the terrorist acts in the past year, to take to the streets and strike.
Besides the damage caused to the Palestinians, the hundreds of rioters diverted the attention of the security establishment from the hunt for the despicable terrorist, who murdered two young brothers, the late Hillel Weigel Yaniv, for no wrongdoing.

The truth is that the security system failed here, as the writing was on the wall.
In the past year, after almost every terrorist attack, Jewish youths went on a rampage and damaged innocent Palestinian vehicles in revenge.
The security system was already alerted a few months ago that in recent times ordinary residents have also participated in this.
Therefore, the fear of revenge actions that would set the area on fire was on the table.
Even after the serious attack, the security establishment knew that revenge actions were planned.
It was not necessary to use the wonderful abilities of the Israeli intelligence to locate the calls on social networks for the Jewish residents to go out and take revenge.
The tweet of the deputy head of the Samaria Council, Davidi Ben-Zion, who wrote "The village of Havara should be wiped out today" was visible to all, and the Minister of Finance and Minister of Defense Bezalel Smotrich also liked it.
Liked the post calling for the village to be deleted and then retracted it.

The required preparation
The security system should have poured many forces into the area ahead of time, before the riots of the settlers began, whose anger is completely understandable.
Senior officials in the IDF also admitted that they did indeed fail in preparing for the events in Hawara, since the preparation was similar to events that had happened in the past, and not to what actually happened on the ground. 14 deaths in one month is an unimaginable number. But blaming the security system for not working to eradicate terrorism is far from reality, and quite If we recall the recent actions of the IDF in the heart of Jenin and Nablus in broad daylight, in which almost 20 Palestinians were killed, most of them terrorists.
Blaming the security system is far from reality.

Meanwhile, the security system continues to hunt for the terrorist who murdered the two brothers, as well as for the terrorists who carried out last night's attack in the Bekaa.
But no matter how you look at it, the consequences of yesterday's events in Hawara, less than a month before the beginning of the month of Ramadan, which is also prone to calamities, may accompany us for a long time, and not necessarily in the Yosh sector alone.
