‘Too little, too late’: Israel issues emergency directive to ‘allow’ citizens to arm themselvesOctober 9, 2023 | Kevin Haggerty
Facing the prospect of a prolonged war and with a counter-offensive mounting, Israel’s Second Amendment-lacking citizenry was granted new permissions “to allow as many citizens as possible to arm themselves.”
Since Hamas terrorists launched their attack on the people of Israel, killing more than 700 people and taking dozens hostage, the Israel Defense Force’s response has been one of increasing force. In addition to calling up 300,000 reservists while launching strikes against the “evil, dark, medieval extremists” a new statement from Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir captured the intensity of the lingering danger.
“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,” Ben-Gvir detailed on X as the nation sought to prevent civilians from being caught defenseless for the duration of the threat. “The plan will take effect within 24 hours.”
