Hey Derek! Would be great if you could mention the suspected car bombing in Ramle in which a Palestinian woman and 3 children with Israeli citizenship were killed and a baby critically wounded. Israeli domestic de facto policy in last decade was to suppress Israeli Jewish organized crime but allow Israeli Arab crime families to run rampant as their victims are other Palestinians in Palestinian-majority towns. The pattern is alarming as numbers of victims and especially women and children increase steadily year by year and threaten the livability of those towns while also increasing the collusion between the Israeli state and Palestinian criminal collaborators, thus also weakening legitimate Israeli Arab self-governance. An important dimension of the conflict that often gets overshadowed due to the egregious scale of atrocities in Gaza and the West Bank.
