In light of multiple recent terrorist attacks inside the Jewish State, the Israeli prime minister is calling on gun owners to take up arms; Bennett: Be alert. Whoever has a weapons license, this is the time to carry it.

Following three deadly terrorist attacks inside the Jewish State in the last week, Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett is calling on all Israeli gun owners to bear arms. His comments came after the most recent attack, which occurred on Tuesday evening in Bnei Brak – an area heavily populated by Ultra-Orthodox Jews.

On Wednesday, the PM addressed the series of attacks, stating, “After a period of quiet, there is a violent eruption by those who want to destroy us, those who want to hurt us at any price, whose hatred of Jews, of the State of Israel, drives them crazy.”

Bennett also told citizens, “Be alert. Whoever has a weapons license, this is the time to carry it.” He also elaborated on the government’s call for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), Israel Police, and Shin Bet to increase security measures in order to act preemptively.

In reference to May of 2021, when Hamas – the Iranian-funded terror group based in Gaza – and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) fired several thousand rockets into Israel, Bennett added, “What we witnessed less than a year ago in Operation Guardians of the Walls, the terrorism and the violence, from within Israel and inside Israel, was the first sign.”

Tuesday’s deadly attack brought the death toll in Israel to 11, two of which were Ukrainian citizens who had fled their country due to the Russian invasion.

Hal Lindsey in his article “What Is Hamas?” explained that “the eradication of Israel” and the Jewish people “is their goal” and the terror organization is not shy in admitting it.

“Hamas a terror group because terror is the organization’s chief tactic, and violence is its mode of operation,” Lindsey insisted. “Hamas’s violence goes back to its very beginning. The preamble to their charter says, ‘Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it.’”

“The eradication of Israel is their goal,” he underscored. “They don’t just want to win a military victory over Israel or carve out a Palestinian state. Hamas wants nothing less than the destruction of the Jewish people. Genocide is their aim and reason.”

“In Article 32 of their charter, they say that the Jew’s ‘scheme has been laid out in the ‘Protocols of the Elders of Zion.’ The protocols are a hoax first published in Russia in 1903,” he described. “When the Nazis came to power in Germany, the protocols began to be taught in German schools. But it was proven false early on. For one thing, you can trace much of the source material to known works of fiction. But for Hamas and its supporters, anything against Jews must be true.”

“The Hamas charter depicts Jews using old stereotypes,” he continued. “Article 22 blames the Jews for World Wars I and II, as well as the French and communist revolutions. This illustrates yet again that their hatred is not for Israel alone, but for Jews generally. Article 7 says, ’The Day of Judgment will not come about until Moslems fight Jews and kill them. Then, the Jews will hide behind rocks and trees, and the rocks and trees will cry out: ‘O Moslem, there is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him.’’”

The Bible states that when a person, organization, country, etc. hates and attacks the Jewish people and their promised land, they place themselves at odds with God.

Zechariah 2:8 states that “he that toucheth [Israel] toucheth the apple of [God’s] eye.”
