The massacre that took place Tuesday at the gas station near Ali was like the writing on the wall.
For more than a year, residents of Judea and Samaria have been crying out that a large-scale military operation is needed to eradicate the number of weapons and weapons in the hands of the Palestinians. And now the proof has been received at a heavy price in blood.
Documentation from the murderous attack in Binyamin
The votes now coming out of Knesset members and ministers in the coalition leave no room for doubt. Decisive action is needed to restore deterrence. It was the worst terrorist attack in Judea and Samaria in the past year. In recent months there have been a number of serious terrorist attacks on the ground, including the murder of the Dee family in the Jordan Valley, the murder of Hillel Weigel Yaniv (in Huwara), and the attack in which Meir Tamari was murdered two and a half weeks ago (at the entrance gate to Hermesh).
Northern Samaria - The Terrorists' Wasps' Nest
But nothing compares to the attack in which 4 Israelis were murdered while sitting in a restaurant eating or fueling. The assessments in the defense establishment are already that the terrorist fled towards Nablus, not by chance. All the recent attacks took place (on us) from Nablus, Jenin or northern Samaria, and alternatively, the terrorists left these areas for attacks at other points and locations throughout the country.
This was also the case with the attack in the Jordan Valley, so too in this attack, the decision whether to launch the operation has now become a question of when, not if, and the settlers are furious that it was made at the (bloody) price of 4 dead. Everyone in Judea and Samaria knows this decision should have been made before further funerals.
