While Israel’s senior diplomatic community is abuzz ahead of this week’s convening of the United Nations General Assembly, the security and intelligence communities are preparing for a violent Arab response, not just in Judea and Samaria, but a possible spillover into “Israel proper”, such as eastern areas of the capital and The Triangle, the Israeli Arab area which include Nachal I’ron, more commonly referred to as Wadi Ara.
Three standing army battalions are being deployed throughout Yehuda and Shomron while additional reserve duty battalions are on hold, possibly to be activated on a moment’s notice.
Soldiers will be armed with an array of riot-control adjuncts, that is to say every effort will be made to restore calm and maintain order via the use of non-deadly force.

Forget about the “riot-control adjuncts” like the paintball guns they used on the Gaza Ship!
This is a violent, vicious enemy, Jewish lives should NOT be put at risk.
The world will condemn Israel whatever they do (or don’t do) anyway.
Barak should just pretend he is dealing with “settlers”, THEN he will use the serious force necessary!
