\n\n“In the wake of the Hamas terrorist organization’s murderous attacks on Israel<\/a>, the country’s government is admitting\u2014not for the first time\u2014that even Israel’s extensive security apparatus can’t be everywhere to protect everyone. Under the pressure of bloody events, officials are again<\/em> making it easier for civilians to acquire and carry firearms for self-defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Today I directed the Firearms Licensing Division to go on an emergency operation, in order to allow as many citizens as possible to arm themselves,” announced<\/a> National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. “The plan will take effect within 24 hours.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By no means does the order eliminate the country’s tight restrictions on guns<\/a>. But it’s an acknowledgment that too many Israelis were caught with limited access to the means of self-defense when Hamas terrorists crossed the border from Gaza and attacked civilians.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
