The Hebrew media agrees that the double bombing that Jerusalem witnessed is “the worst” since the Al-Aqsa Intifada, not because of its success in spreading terror and the number of deaths and injuries, but because of the Palestinians’ ability to manufacture explosive devices and bring them into the occupied territories.

The laws of physics, as well as history, determine the equation of Jerusalem. This occurs when an action brings an equal but opposite reaction. The direction of Jerusalem has been, and still is, throughout history, recoiling in anger in the face of the invaders. She did it yesterday, crossing the bridge of time with the might of her iron and scattered nails, racing through the days between the Hebrew teenager Itamar Ben Gvir assuming the Ministry of Internal Security, which is directly responsible for the Jerusalem Police and Al-Aqsa Mosque.

“Religious Zionism” wanted an open invasion of Jerusalem according to the brutal doctrine of the Talmud, when its party nominated the winner of the elections, Ben Gvir, who is the sticking egg in the coalition whose features are being cooked by Netanyahu over a hot fire, to take over the “internal security” portfolio, and then the Jerusalem boys launched a cross-space response. Electronic, with a double explosion that tore apart the buses with explosive devices that were activated remotely, perhaps via phones, resulting in dozens of casualties, including one dead and one wounded.

The double bombing came after Jerusalem and the rest of the settlements built on the ruins of Palestinian rights had recovered two decades ago, which constituted a violent shock to the roots of Israeli consciousness. The streets of Jerusalem were crowded with thousands of police officers searching buses in unprecedented confusion, as rumors of a third bombing here and a fourth there spread like wildfire.

The Hebrew media unanimously considered this double bombing to be the worst since the Al-Aqsa Intifada, not because of the number of dead and injured, according to “Israel Hayom,” nor because of its success in spreading terror in the city, as it also said, which required the intervention of the “Nital” and “Eran” foundations. For psychological support, but because of the ability to manufacture highly explosive explosive devices, bring them into Israeli areas, and detonate them remotely in places crowded with Israelis.

The current Minister of Internal Security, Omer Barlev, asserted that the attack was the result of the work of an organized infrastructure, and not just personal inspiration, as was happening in recent years, and it is an structure that succeeded in bypassing the Israeli radar, according to Amir Boukhbout. The danger of this infrastructure is that it can collect intelligence information, possess explosives, and has the possibility of planting them, according to what was stated in “Haaretz,” a skilled squad that proved the failure of Israeli intelligence, according to Reshet Kan’s description.

Mofaz, Sharon, and Netanyahu previously believed that they had succeeded in cauterizing the Palestinian consciousness, by creating a Palestinian generation deterred by the developments on the ground after the Al-Aqsa Intifada and its psychological repercussions after its end, after it had achieved a balance of terror for years. After that, Palestinian politicians, as well as heads of families, were busy searching for windows to make a living. By increasing the number of work permits in Tel Aviv and Haifa, or by competing for jobs in the remaining Palestinian Authority structures.

Israeli society produced its elected leaders, so that one expelled from the army in 1994 (Itamar Ben Gvir) obtained a parliamentary bloc whose number exceeded what the commander of the paratroopers in the “military” (Benny Gantz) obtained in the year in which the first was expelled, and his eyes were open with all constitutional “legitimacy.” On the Ministry of Homeland Security. It was revealed that 30% “army” soldiers and about 50% policemen voted for him.

What does it mean for Ben Gvir to assume the Ministry of Internal Security, at a time when Netanyahu, under American pressure, refused to have Rafiq Ben Gvir and the leader of his bloc, Bezalel Smotrich, assume the Ministry of Defense? It has become a given that Ben Gvir will take over “internal security.” Therefore, he rushed to the site of the two bombings, and pledged to restore deterrence by quickly forming a right-wing government and “returning to targeted assassinations, stopping facilities in prisons, imposing restrictions on detainees there, and stopping payments to the Palestinian Authority, which supports violence and the killers of Jews.”

Chief of Staff Aviv Kochavi cut short his visit to America, which, along with Turkey, was quick to condemn the bombing and considered it “terrorism against civilians.” A few days ago, they condemned the “Ariel” operation, which targeted 7 armed settlers in the heart of the West Bank, at a time when they blessed the victory of the extremists of the right. Biden, Erdogan and other world leaders called Netanyahu to congratulate him, and they did not issue an official position against the appointment of Ben Gvir as head of “security.” “Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa Mosque, despite his declared extremist positions.

The world tended to accept Ben Gvir, albeit implicitly, as the leader of “security” in occupied Jerusalem, years after the US embassy was moved from “Tel Aviv” to Jerusalem. The double bombing came, to anticipate the ignition of the match; The moment Ben Gvir sat in his ministry seat, as he gave new instructions to police commanders and men to replace the open-fire laws in Al-Aqsa Square and throughout the alleys of Jerusalem; Instead of temperamental brutality, as is common, Ben Gvir wants it to be legally binding brutality, in which the policeman is punished if he hesitates to shoot a boy protesting against oppression, or throws a stone against the demolition of his house due to lack of a permit, or raises his fist to defend himself, his home, and his family against... Settlers storm his alley.

It is a personal vendetta that Netanyahu is unloading on the police chiefs who have always conducted investigations against his corruption and that of his wife, in order to slander them against Ben Gvir, describing him as a curse wherever he goes, as he lacks professional experience, and does not understand the hierarchy in the police force.

He had previously agreed with him to introduce legal amendments that would make the police chief subordinate to the minister, which made the current Minister Barlev consider this agreement a recipe for destroying the police and harming “democracy,” which prevents the minister’s political affiliation from the professional work of police commanders, which will lead to the weakening of the investigative, intelligence, and operations bodies.

The appointment of Ben Gvir as head of Jerusalem’s “security” after its double bombing are two pivotal events that may take Jerusalem and the entire region towards an inevitable confrontation that many may be forced to engage in against their wishes. The fire has reached their political adventures and intellectual recklessness, as the day they found themselves in the face of Baruch Goldstein as he was attacking the worshipers in the Ibrahimi Mosque, at a time when every policeman is preparing to be “Baruch” according to the letter of the law, to draw the letters of religious Zionism, which emerged from the living legacy of “Kahane.”
