In this podcast INSS researcher Adi Kantor converses with Mohammed Wattad, Associate Professor and the Dean of Law at Zefat Academic College and a senior researcher at INSS. Together they discuss the alarming situation inside the Arab community in Israel regarding the current wave of civilian terror. In only four months, since PM Netanyahu’s 6th government was sworn in, the Arab sector has seen 78 acts of homicide, with women, children, and small babies among the victims. President Isaac Herzog referred to the current situation as an “emergency” and as “civilian terror that threatens us all.” What explains this current escalation in violence? What are the challenges and barriers facing the Israeli Police in their efforts to confront it? What are the responses of the state and the Minister responsible for eradicating this problem? In addition, how do Arabs in Israel view the current attempts toward a judicial overhaul, how does it affect them, and what is the role of the Supreme Court in their everyday life?
