The former head of the Ichud Leumi party Yaakov Katz (Ketzaleh) released a statement to the media following the fatal terror attacks on Monday. Katz stated that in response to the mounting Arab terrorism, the prime minister should convene his Security Cabinet and declare a state of emergency.

Katz all calls for a closure for the period of one month in all Arab communities in Yehuda and Shomron and inside Israel proper, referring to those involved in the violence and attacks. He also calls for bringing 75,000 Chinese laborers to Israel as was done in the past to replace all PA residents earning a livelihood in Israel’s construction industry.

He explains that “It is not only dangerous on the Jerusalem light rail, Tel Aviv or Alon Shvut. All Muslim Arabs do not wish to see us on Har Habayis in Yerushalayim, not in Tel Aviv University, not the Technion in Haifa or Sapir College in Sderot.

“They do not want the right-wingers among us or the left-wingers. They do not want Moshe Feiglin or any Jews from one end of the country to the other. Every Muslim Arab without exception does not want us to exist. At least we should stop fooling ourselves. This is all backed by Abu Mazen who is loved by the Israeli left.”
