The IDF has conducted detailed work to determine a “red line” for each settlement in the West Bank, which will determine when soldiers will be ordered to shoot at the feet of Palestinian protesters if the line is crossed. It is also arming settlers with tear gas and stun grenades as part of the defense operation.
The IDF is currently in the process of finalizing its preparations for Operation Summer Seeds, whose purpose is to ready the army for September and the possibility of confrontations with Palestinians following the expected vote in favor of Palestinian statehood at the UN General Assembly.

“Uzis are for chicks.”
Have you ever fired one in full-auto? The one I shot had a silencer no less; no barrel climb. Slicker than owl Shi’ite. I would love to own one.
I have.
They were primarily a personal defense weapon for women soldiers working in clerical or other non-combat positions, as a favored attack method of arabs is to go shoot up hospitals, offices, or other softer targets.
It’s small, packs a decent punch, but is a REMF weapon.
I’ve never understood why they garnered the reputation they have.
When do I get my tear gas and stun grenade?
