Haaretz: Hawwara dropped the mask on Israel's true face

The Israeli newspaper "Haartz" published

about the acts of violence committed by Israeli settlers in the town of Hawara and the failure of the police to intervene to protect the Palestinians. The article criticized Israeli politicians, rulers and opposition.

The article - written by Avner Gvaryahu - was titled "In Hawara, we saw our true face," and it was reported that about 400 settlers entered the village in the West Bank, set fire to homes, and shot reporters, as well as a 37-year-old Palestinian, apparently.

The writer quoted the first Israeli Prime Minister, David Ben-Gurion, as saying once, "When we have a Jewish thief, a Jewish prostitute, and a Jewish murderer, we will know that we have a state."

Massacres supported by everyone

"Now we have it all," he said, adding to the Jewish pogroms that enjoy the full support of Knesset members, ministers, mayors and journalists, since no one pays the price, neither the perpetrators nor those who embrace them.

He expressed his disappointment with the position of the opposition in the Knesset, saying that he did not have high expectations from the opposition leaders there, adding, "But the hundreds of thousands who take to the streets every week are certainly a reason for hope."

harming the Arabs

He said that the way to victory in Israel is for the demonstrators, who come out by the thousands through the smokescreen, to see that the goal of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's "coup" is first and foremost to harm the Arabs and their political representatives, adding that if every demonstrator dared to make equality his weapon against the arrogant regime It would be a "dramatic step forward for all of us".

The writer mentioned many events that reveal the cruelty of Israeli politicians, police, and settlers, including the treatment of a Bedouin family in 2013 by the police, who assaulted and beat its members and jumped on them while they were tied and kicked them in the thighs, in addition to one of the policemen urinating on the face of the father, adding that no No one has criticized or objected to this incident.

"This is us...without masks"

The writer ridiculed Israel's dealings with what is happening against the Arabs in the country, saying, "Jews set fire to a town, and the army responded by closing Palestinian shops." He commented that this "is a description of us as a society without masks and without gossip. Yes, Jewish terrorism is horrific, so we will not let the Arabs They walk the streets that are theirs, yes, Jewish terrorism is appalling, even our national security minister is against it on principle."

He called the opposition in the Knesset cowardice, and said that Netanyahu will continue to embrace supporters of terrorism, and that the demonstrators will continue to be afraid of some demonstrators who raise Palestinian flags.
