Will the attacks in Israel last long?
To sad news from this country, many managed to get used to. Mass media have long since not classified the terrorist attacks in Israel as a sensation. It is believed that it can not be otherwise. But is it really so?
Islamic terror
Against the backdrop of a sharp aggravation of Islamic terrorist activity in a number of major cities in Western Europe, news from Israel is on the periphery of public attention. Few people think that the people of this small Mediterranean country have been confronting the same enemy every day for several decades with which the inhabitants of Paris collided this fall.
From the history of the question
As you know, the present state of Israel was created, in accordance with the UN decision, in May 1948. A significant role in its creation was played by the support of this decision of the United Nations by the Soviet Union. But the decision to create a new and unique Jewish state in the world categorically did not suit the Arab surroundings of the former British Mandate Palestine, as this territory was officially called in the short historical period between the two world wars.
Arabs in Israel
Currently, more than 1.5 million Arabs live in Israel. We are talking only about those who are citizens of this state. It is the second largest ethnic group in the country. And more than three and a half million Arabs live in the territories of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. A large part of them go daily to jobs in Israel. This is due to the structure of the country's economy and autonomies on its borders. Almost all acts of terrorism in Israel are committed by representatives of this ethnic group. So they continue their war. On the complete destruction of Israel and the Jews. They are not stopped by the fact that the Arabs are dying much more than those they cut or blow up.
From the history of terror
Everyone who happened to visit Israel could pay attention to the memorial plates and other signs that mark the places of committing terrorist acts and the death of people. The Islamic terror in this country began even before its official proclamation. The Jewish people have traditionally been persecuted for many centuries and in many countries. But after gaining its statehood, it openly opposes everything that threatens its existence.
Confrontation
Measures to counter Islamic terrorism are of a systematic nature in Israel. The whole population of this small country is ready to counter terror. This was clearly demonstrated by the recent series of terrorist attacks in Israel. Despite the death of people, the terrorist failed to achieve the main thing - no panic and the feeling of an inevitable catastrophe in the country is not observed. Everyone is busy with their usual affairs, but they do not lose their vigilance. The fact that danger can suddenly arise from any direction - has long been perceived by all as something self-evident. And so for all the long-established scope of metal detectors at the entrance to public institutions. And also a large number of armed people in police and military uniforms on the streets and crossroads. Quite often they manage to use their weapons before the terrorists.
