Palestinians Get Their Wish
JONATHAN S. TOBIN / NOV. 25, 2015
After two months of
incessant attacks on Israeli civilians that have taken a mounting toll of
lives, Prime Minister Netanyahu announced on Monday that he would order
steps to limit the ability of Palestinians to slaughter Jews.
Separate bypass roads
would be created for Jews in the West Bank that would separate traffic and make
it harder for Palestinians terrorists to treat traffic jams at road junctions
as a killing ground. Inspections of Palestinian cars on those roads will
continue. To deter terrorists, the government will also revoke permission for
family members of killers to work in Israel. In other words, the terror surge
has not only accomplished nothing for the Palestinians but is leading to
measures that will make their lives harder. Which means the Palestinian
Authority, which has helped incite this madness in which their people have gone
out to stab, shoot and firebomb any Jew they can get near, has gotten its
wish.
Much like their Hamas
rivals, who triggered the 50-day war with Israel by launching terror raids and
then raining down thousands of rockets on Israeli cities, towns and villages,
the PA is actually quite pleased with the results of its campaign of
incitement.
The same international
public opinion that has viewed the stabbing intifada with indifference will now
quickly go into overdrive denouncing Netanyahu’s moves. We’ll hear a lot about
“apartheid roads” — a term used in the New York Times story about the announcement. The checkpoints to
stop potential terrorists will be termed a deliberate attempt to harass and
humiliate proud and peaceful Palestinians who only want a state of their own.
The crimes of those Palestinians who use knives to kill any Jew in sight will
be rationalized as the product of their frustration with the lack of peace and
an understandable protest against the oppression of occupation.
