Israel ARMS 100,000 Civilians VS 20,000 HAMAS Fighters: Ben-Gvir’s Militia Plan Sparks Deadly War [Video]

Israel ARMS 100,000 Civilians VS 20,000 HAMAS Fighters: Ben-Gvir’s Militia Plan Sparks Deadly War

Israel expands gun permits, 100,000 more eligible as critics warn of rising civilian militias Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has expanded gun licensing laws, making 100,000 more Israelis eligible for firearms amid soaring West Bank violence. Since the 2023 Hamas attack, more than 230,000 Israelis have received new permits, including settlers accused of driving Palestinians from their homes. Critics warn Ben-Gvir’s plan is fueling a civilian militia that targets Palestinians, deepening tensions and risking further bloodshed. Arab leaders and rights groups condemn the move, citing his extremist rhetoric, including calls to shoot women and children resisting Israeli operations. The decision marks Israel’s sharpest militarization of civilians in decades. #IsraelPalestine #WestBank #BenGvir #IsraelNews #BreakingNews #MiddleEast #Hamas #IsraelConflict #Palestine #OccupiedWestBank #IsraeliSettlers #CivilianArmy #GunLicensing #IDF #FarRightIsrael #IsraelPolitics #GazaWar #HumanRights #IsraelTensions #PalestinianRights #MiddleEastCrisis #Jerusalem #AlAqsa #IsraelUpdates #SettlerViolence #IsraelMilitia #GazaCrisis #WestBankClashes #BenGvirPlan #GlobalNews Also Read Israeli Military Conducts Airstrikes On Yemen's Capital Sanaa Following Houthi Missile Launches :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-airstrikes-on-yemens-capital-sanaa-011-7839689.html?ref=DMDesc Israel Kills 5 Al Jazeera Journalist In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-kills-5-al-jazeera-journalist-in-gaza-011-7826025.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Lists 5 Principles To End Gaza War, Slams ‘Global Campaign Of Lies :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-gaza-liberation-hamas-prime-minister-netanyahu-011-7825831.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~

‘Make Israel Great Again…’ MASSIVE Anti-Netanyahu Protests Erupt In Tel Aviv |Israelis Beg For Help

Thousands of Israelis flooded the streets of Tel Aviv, marching from Hostage Square to the US Embassy, demanding an immediate and comprehensive hostage deal with Hamas. Families of captives, backed by freed hostages, pleaded with Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Trump to finalize an agreement to bring all remaining hostages home. Freed hostage Doron Steinbrecher passionately urged both leaders to "make Israel great again," referencing her 471 days of terror in Gaza tunnels. Protesters carried Israeli and American flags, and banners demanding Trump’s leadership. The powerful march came amid stalled ceasefire talks in Qatar, and rising frustration with Israel's government. Some demonstrators also condemned army draft exemptions for ultra-Orthodox Jews, adding fuel to the fire. With at least 50 hostages still in captivity and negotiations stalling, desperation and political anger are boiling over. The world watches as Israel pleads for a resolution to this human tragedy. #IsraelGaza #HostageCrisis #TrumpIsrael #TelAvivProtests #FreeTheHostages #IsraelNews #HamasHostages #GazaWar #NetanyahuDeal #USIsraelRelations #IsraelPalestine #MiddleEastConflict #TelAvivMarch #SaveTheHostages #HostageSquare #IsraelUnderFire #CeasefireNow #DonaldTrumpNews #Zionism #EndTheWar
