A Border Patrol officer serving in eastern Jerusalem has for the first time revealed the police helplessness in dealing with the "silent intifada" that has been gripping the capital in recent months, as Arab rock, firebomb and even gunfire attacks rise sharply.
Speaking on Channel 2's "Shesh Im" TV program Thursday, a day after a Hamas terrorist wounded nine with his car including a three-month-old baby who was killed in the attack, the officer admitted the Border Patrol warriors are forced to "stand like dolls" against the Arab terror.
"We feel like our hands are tied," the combat officer revealed, placing the blame squarely on the shoulders of Interior Security Minister Yitzhak Aharonovich for the collapse in security.
According to the officer, senior captains as well as Aharonovich are trying to calm things down and hush up the "silent intifada" rather than fight Arab terror to the end.
"How can it be that they have ammunition inside of Jerusalem and we are standing like dolls begging them?" asks the officer, noting on the constant incidents of shootings in the French Hill neighborhood, Kalandia, and violent riots on the Temple Mount for hours on end.
Aharonovich has come in for great criticism as the "silent intifada" heats up under his watch; early this month Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat charged Aharonovich with abandoning the security of the capital.

The comments were interesting. What the heck ever happened to Netanyahu? Or was that whole former image of strength a lie? Now that things are really pressing, he’s gone weak-kneed.
.. rock-hurling terrorists attacking a kindergarten
is reason enough to wipe pisslam and its barbaric adherents from the face of the earth.
It could be dubbed 'The Final Crusade', and everyone gets to play . . .
You’re just noticing it. We’ve lived with it. He hasn’t gone weak-kneed. His weak knees are just showing more lately. All talk. No walk.
He is a coward who caves to Democrat presidents and terrorists. He did it in the 1990s too and it should surprise no one.
That’s the way the Leftist politicians in Israel want it.
It’s the Leftists who wanted Muzzies (when they fled) to stay when Israel was fighting for its life during the war of independence and the others.
He did that in his previous stint as PM.
What are the laws regarding private citizens defending themselves in these situations?
The Muzzies have done more than just throw rocks at kindergartners.

The Leftist Israeli politicians are more concerned about Muzzies than their own people just like they are in Europe and the USA. Until that changes Israelis will keep dying in this manner. Hasn’t changed since 1948.
He's gone full Republican. Don't want the Western Media to call him a mean-old right-wing extremist.
The world gets more insane everyday.
