There really is a cycle of violence, but it isn't what the media says it is.
Here are excerpts from a couple of Arabic articles over the past couple of days.
On the anniversary of Palestinian Land Day: All indications confirm the demise of the Zionist entity
The overwhelming joy with which the Palestinians in particular and the free people of the world in general received yesterday evening news of the operation carried out by the son of the city of Jenin al-Qassam Diaa Hamrasheh in the heart of Tel Aviv is the constant truth that many parties are trying to hide, meaning that the Zionist occupier will not be safe from the weapons of any resistance.
On the night of the Palestinian Land Day, Diaa did not only kill five Zionists, but also raised the morale of the Palestinians to the highest level. He also struck terror in the hearts of the settlers who had usurped the Palestinian land, which had been occupied by Jewish Zionist gangs for nearly seventy-four years. Global Zionism is working to prolong its life through a security system, and it will not last.
Another article from Jordanian outlet Jo24, but it mirrors what Palestinian media is saying:
An observer of the Zionist (Israeli) media and the statements of Israeli officials concludes that the Israeli public is terrified, and the Israeli is afraid of going out to the streets and shopping in the markets or malls, after the Palestinian resistance achieved great success in three guerrilla operations in the heart of Tel Aviv and in the Palestinian territories occupied in 1948.
Today, the Palestinian people and their resistance, with the support of the Axis of Resistance, are capable alone,while abandoned by the Arabs, to confront Israel and restore their usurped right that was stolen 70 years ago.
These articles are telling the Palestinians that terrorism will cause the Jews to flee Israel and leave it open for them to simply take it over. They use as evidence that Israel is mobilizing troops to keep the peace.
The idea is a fantasy. Jews aren't leaving their homeland. But this fantasy of Palestinian victory created by fatal terror attacks fuels the next wave of attacks. Every dead Israeli and the adoration that follows gives others the desire to emulate the terrorists.
These articles don't create the incitement by themselves. They are an accurate representation of how Palestinians think. The terror attacks themselves, the videos of dead Israelis and of Palestinians with guns in the middle of Jewish population centers, drive more to want to become terrorists. The veneration of the murderers, and the absolute lack of criticism for them in Palestinian, Jordanian and Egyptian media encourages the next wave of attacks.
The attacks aren't prompted by Israel's response - they are prompted by Palestinian adoration of the original murders. It is a self-sustaining cycle. Israeli reactions are trying to stop that cycle, not prolong it.
