Ben Gvir puts up poster of destroyed Gaza for Palestinian security inmates to view
Not kind, but an important reality check for a culture immersed in impossible fantasies of conquest.
[IsraelTimes] National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir visits an Israeli prison where a large photo of destruction in Gaza was hung for Palestinian security prisoners to see.

In a video released from the visit, Ben Gvir is seen pointing to the image, saying that prisoners are forced to look at the scene on their way to their daily courtyard time, and even claims that one recognized his own home.

“This is how it’s supposed to look,” he adds.

The footage, posted to Telegram, is captioned: “The Israel Prison Service placed photos of destroyed Gaza in the terrorists’ wings — so they understand that you don’t mess with the people of Israel!”

The visit comes just days after Ben Gvir was filmed entering the cell of prominent Palestinian terror convict Marwan Barghouti and appearing to taunt him.

In the footage, published Thursday, Ben Gvir told Barghouti, “You won’t win. Whoever messes with the Nation of Israel, whoever murders our children and women — we will wipe them out. You should know this, [this happened] throughout history.”

#1 Whoever messes with the Nation of Israel, whoever murders our children and women — we will wipe them out.

A message NOT just for Arabs.

#2 /\ With some of the finest intelligence capabilities in the region, possibly the world; a lingering question. Planning and preparation for the 7 Oct 2023 Hamas attack on the Nova Festival went undetected. Perhaps Grom, you could shed some light on this tragic occurrence.

#3 ^It's like Yom Kippur war - they did it dozens of times until IDF stopped paying attention. In any case: deterrence is the best prevention.

#5 Planning and preparation for the 7 Oct 2023 Hamas attack on the Nova Festival went undetected

Surveillance soldiers warned of Hamas activity on Gaza border for months before Oct. 7

The brutal Hamas massacre on October 7 was preceded by months of warning signs noted by IDF surveillance soldiers and disregarded as unimportant by intelligence officials, according to eyewitness accounts given in recent days.

#6 This argument brings me back to the 1941 FDR knew about Dec 7 and did nothing. Woulda coulda shouda.

At least the Japanese attacked a military base. And hindsight is always 20/20.
