Acting Head of the Samaria Regional Council, Yossi Dagan, has filed a request to the Minister of the Interior Gilad Erdan demanding he immediately expel the American Consulate staff members who entered the Samaria village of Adei Ad Friday and threatened Israeli Jews with an M-16.
"As revealed through Wikileaks few years ago, these supposed 'officials' are intelligence agents and spies in every respect," said Dagan, adding "this time, they went too far and participated in a provocative tour with the Palestinians in the southern Samaria and north Binyamin, without any coordination as required with the IDF and police, and pulled out a firearm and threatened Israeli civilians."
"This is a crossing of all red lines," he continued. "This event could have descended easily into bloodshed and only as a result of the settlers' responsible behavior was [a scenario like that] prevented."
"I request that in view of the serious and criminal conduct, that these [US] security guards and officials be deported," he added.
"If Israeli intelligence officials and armed Israeli security guards stationed in one of the Israeli consulates in the United States had participated in a political provocation without any coordination with the police and threatened American citizens with weapons, at best, they would be arrested and deported, and the more likely case would be them spending several years in federal prison."
It is unclear exactly what prompted the incident at Adei Ad Friday, but reports say that several consulate officials arrived with armed guards at the community to investigate Palestinian Arabs' claims of vandalism of a nearby olive orchard.
An argument erupted between the convoy and the community's security guards, as all official visits to Jewish communities in Judea-Samaria must be coordinated with the IDF and police - a protocol the consulate allegedly ignored.

Imagine this happening the other way around, on US soil.
If any UK or German or Israeli or Canadian govt workers, or anyone else, came to my community or residence brandishing arms and threatening my family, I can assure you they’d go home -—yes indeed -— In a box.
Ps— which is probably what O wanted. Agents provocateur who do their dirty mischief and cent talk about it.
Expel their asses to ISIS controlled territory
Cookie-pushers gone wild! Just WTF? Over.
I am embarrassed.
Obama advisor calls for the invasion of Israel (Now our UN Ambassador.)

Clearly these people who work for us, didn’t have permission to act inside Israel.
Why is it that in the past month Israelis have been stabbed and run over intentially by cars and suv’s and yet American diplomat only help ex pats who oar Arabs for some vines.
I know some of those stabbed and run over were also Americans, yet we didn’t hear much angst from Kerry or Obama, only concern is for Muslims.
In our own country, governors will not even send the National Guard in to cities to protect their fellow Americans from murderous gangs, looters, and arsonists, as happened when Ferguson was allowed to go up in flames — yet our government in Washington can’t seem to restrain itself from sending American embassy personnel in Israel to protect murderous, Israel-hating Palestinians from peaceful Israeli settlers.
When will Israelis face the reality that the U.S. government under Barack Obama is more its enemy than its friend?
you mean under 0bama they’ve filled the embassies and military positions with left leaning, anti-American, anti-Israeli types?
i’m shocked.
as for ejecting them... i would agree
This is not good.
Wouldn’t that be an “act of war” if Israel bombed our new ally? /puke
The perps should be arrested and charged the same way anyone else would be. Lock them up and make a major international incident of this. Which it indeed is.
That is a good point; however IMHO it is still strategically better than shooting Americans. Israel might just get away with it, having just to face a hissy fit by the Dear Reader.
Say, what ???
Elder statesmen type of diplomats, think Brezhinsky for one, have been suggesting that the US occupy and police Israel or “all of Palestine” since at least Clinton. I took it as a trial balloon when Brezh did it. These guys would not have spoken thus unless such things were under consideration or planned.
I wonder if our embassy staffers in Israel have anglified or latinized their names for the purposes of the postings?
