7 Israelis arrested for trying to enter Nablus

Seven Israelis were arrested on Saturday night for trying to enter Nablus (Shchem) without permission from the IDF.
The right-wing activist and a Hilltop Youth leader Meir Bertler was arrested on Saturday along with six other activists who attempted to enter the city of Nablus with no approval from security forces.

Another right-wing activist Itamar Ben-Gvir talked about the arrest saying the blame should rest "with the government of Israel, who should have allowed free entrance to Nablus." He added: "One can't prevent the Israeli people from walking around the State of Israel."
The last Israeli to try to enter Shchem without an IDF uniform or an IDF escort was Hillel Lieberman HY"D (may God avenge his blood - pictured). That didn't work out too well. I'm all in favor of Jews being able to go anywhere anytime in Israel, but I'd be afraid to try something like what those seven did, and while I would hope that the IDF would be willing to escort them in, I would not suggest trying this on your own.

What kind of "peace" is it where Jews are banned from going into certain parts of their own country because they are Jews on the one hand and on the other hand Israel's government says Arabs may move freely and even rent and buy land and property in Jewish towns? No one sees the irony of the situation.

What could go wrong indeed

The last time someone tried entering nablus without the army was hillel leiberman? Are you crazy? Thousands have been doing it for years with only one incident of someone getting hurt. Ive personally done it many times and few and far between are the times when it even came close to danger. Get updated on the facts buddy!
