Benjamin Netanyahu’s efforts to conceal his creation of a “third-force” to counter Palestinian resistance have been exposed, leading to significant backlash and international condemnation. This clandestine group, led by criminal Yasser Abu Shabab, has been implicated in violent acts, including looting humanitarian aid, while operating under Israeli military protection. Netanyahu justified this controversial strategy by claiming it aimed to save IDF soldiers, but it has drawn criticism from opposition leaders and raised parallels to South Africa’s apartheid-era counter-revolutionary tactics.
