The State of Israel has given up on Lod: Life with automatic shooting under the house – 10 minutes from Tel Aviv

by

People leave Lod in a police convoy when they are threatened and in danger of death. They are secured by three police vehicles, which are aware of the danger. There is no such form of security in the world – or at least in Israel. Apparently the problem was solved, because who would dare to eliminate people in such a situation?

But the criminals in Lod are creative people, not “pars” like in other countries or places in the country. So on Route 6 they wait for the police vehicles, integrate with the secure vehicle and make “insects”. Two police vehicles set out to chase this vehicle back to Lod – and encounter a checkpoint prepared for them in advance.

Meanwhile another elimination vehicle passes by the police car. People who the police had to keep shot at. The cops do not understand what is happening, and when the details become clear it is too late and the assassins flee the scene using the vehicle. The result: killed and seriously injured. Yes, yes, I did not describe to you a thriller, not even an episode of The Sopranos. This is the reality today in the center of the country, 10 minutes from Tel Aviv.

Now say once in … a random and rare crime? No and no, the amount of assassinations in Lod – including 100 meters from the police station, at Ginaton Junction in broad daylight, in City Hall Square, near the train offices and where not actually – is inconceivable and unacceptable. Near my house twice already was heavy gunfire from an automatic weapon. One time the offender was killed and another time by luck – his at least – he survived. And it’s not just near my house – search the web for shooting videos from Lod and you will discover a treasure trove of El Capone films or “The Godfather”, which will fill your day with lots of thoughts about the rule of law in the country.

And what does the State of Israel do? Quite simply, whenever the local murder industry gets out of control and the residents express their frustration, they bring two border companies here. Or elsewhere. As if the reality had really changed, and it was not just a blatant and unnecessary publicity stunt.

In other words, do nothing. Yes, they will tell you that they are looking for weapons, that they are fighting crime, but here, in the current liquidation for example, these are two well-known families from the city. They have been fighting for a long time, the tension between them has been going on for years and the parties are very familiar with law enforcement systems.

But in Lod, everything is allowed, shooting at night is free and weapons continue to flow into the city. And if anything here is already moving, it is not thanks to the police, but that the city’s dignitaries from the Arab sector came into the picture and announced Sulha for a short time. However, there is also a limit to the ability of families, and the blood that covers the streets needs to be cleaned up a bit.

While in other cities in Israel children play on the street safely, my two sons and two daughters grow up with the sound of gunfire followed by howling sirens. The rule of law? Maybe in other cities. In Lod there is no law and no day, right in the heart of our country, 10 minutes from Tel Aviv, three minutes from Ben Gurion Airport.
