Why would they need more cops for Ramadan, which every year the Western media tells us is a time of prayer and peace? As always, however, the establishment media line and the truth are two quite different things. Ramadan is the month in which Muslims redouble their efforts to please Allah. If Allah promises paradise to those who kill and are killed (Qur’an 9:111), he must want people to kill and be killed. So Ramadan would be the ideal time to do this, as it is the month in which observant Muslims try to do more of what Allah wants them to do.
“Israel Police warns it needs hundreds more officers ahead of tense Ramadan,” by Tzvi Joffre, Jerusalem Post, February 22, 2023:
Israel Police is suffering from a severe manpower shortage which will affect its ability to respond to violence during the month of Ramadan this year, warned police chief Kobi Shabtai at a meeting of the Knesset National Security Committee on Wednesday.
Shabtai noted that the tensions of Ramadan come as the police are also dealing with securing large protests around the country, a rise in terrorist attacks, car accidents and an increase in murders around the country.
“In every incident, they expect us to be in all places even before the incident happens and with the deployment and stretching out [of police forces], we are now facing serious difficulties in providing a response at the standard and criteria that we think the citizens of Israel deserve to receive,” said Shabtai, noting that in Jerusalem, for example, the police need another 500 officers.
Initiatives
The chief of police called for a pay raise for police officers and an improvement in working conditions in order to aid in recruiting the needed officers.Shabtai explained that, in terms of mixed cities, where Jews, Arabs and Christians live together, the police are in a better place than they were in 2021, but are still not where they need to be and they need more equipment and manpower.
The chief of police noted that police are working to expand the “Safe City” project which includes installing sensors and cameras to help police to predict disturbances and start handling them as soon as they start, but that they still need a larger budget in order to purchase and install the needed technology.
Shabtai reiterated that while technology is important, the main issue is manpower. “We don’t have enough police in these places. In Guardian of the Walls we were caught naked with the number of police officers we had. Our situation has improved a bit in some of the places, but in order to provide security for the citizens of the State of Israel we need many more officers on the streets.”
The police and emergency services are planning to conduct a nationwide exercise next week which will last seven days to check the readiness of the forces throughout the country. The police are also recruiting reserve Border Police companies to reinforce security forces during the month of Ramadan….

Well, and praise be to Allah here, Ramadan is not deadly as are Easter and Passover. I mean, let’s face it, when Christians and Jews honor Easter and Passover respectively, dead and maimed bodies all over the place, contra the wonderfully peaceful Ramadan, one of many beautiful and pacific Islamic feasts. Anyone asserting otherwise can be nothing more than another rank Islamophobe.

A month of bloodshed….ah, yes, always something to celebrate in that.
Along with the gorging on food all night and the insistence that everyone else go along with the “no food, no water”, during the day time, is terrorism.
Give weapons to all non-mozlums so they can defend themselves. and eat as they please, when they need to eat, or just please to do so.
Bending over backward for the celebration of slaughter and gluttony is not a winning way to go.

Just so you know-
Easter Holy Week is April 2-9, 2023.
Passover Holy Week is April 5-23, 2023.
Ramadan is March 22-April 21, 2023.
Everyone who reads JihadWatch should pray that God makes a miracle by getting
into the minds and hearts of all Muslims
everywhere and admonishes them not to
hurt anyone including themselves. Isn’t
that what peace is all about? And doesn’t
Islam call itself “the religion of peace”?

That’s hilarious! You must be new to murderous cult of Islam. What year were you born? Not trying to insult you, but if you followed World News (and stay away from liberal outlets that wouldn’t tell you if you’re on fire while they watched you burn, which includes those sites from Apple and Google) and just paid attention, you’d never say that.
How about starting with Robert Spencers books and subscribing to anything out of Europe or UK or any European country. You can also try Canada, but most of these nations seem fearful of reporting any crime done by Islam, and the U.S. is becoming that way too! Pay attention now, at what is going on. You may want to read the site Memri.org, and keep reading this site. There are many more, but you have to start somewhere. Remember also, that Islam even here in the US, fights to prevent ANY truth about their horrific deeds, and lie about everything, which is instructed in their Quran! They’ll tell you they believe in Jesus Christ, etc… do not believe them!

Our media will tell us, mostly peaceful murderous jihad, I think.

Last year, in India, 3 Hindu festivals happened to fall within Ramadan, and there were nationwide attacks on them all over the country. It’s good that Israel is hardening its law enforcement. Here, the problem won’t be Fatah or Hamas or PIJ: it will most likely be ordinary Israeli muslims who’ll try and disrupt Jewish celebrations of Passover. Good thing is that since in Israel, normal citizens have the right to own firearms, they should be safer, assuming that they’re smart enough to keep them handy for use when necessary
SJ says
Yes, perhaps. But the Biden Administration is making it difficult for Israel AND Jew in America to defend themselves. Again, read the crimes going on by reading and subscribing to the U.S. State Department emails. You’ll know that we’ve been infiltrated and it will seem as if Osama bin Laden is running this nation, intentionally into the ground. Plus, wait until you see how we’re giving billions upon billions to our enemies, BUT NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT ANY OF THIS! I keep seeking for someone or some organization to know, but …Nothing! And some of those emails you’ll read what countries say when we give them billions, like Pakistan, they outright complain that they’re not getting enough. They are also giving away all our secrets, technology, everything. In fact, they are allowing anyone to come here from those countries, and the UN will decide who comes. There is so much more. I’m going to puke now, so I’ll leave you with that.
